CRITIQUE

CAIRN TERRIERS 11^th March 2023

A very big thank you to Crufts for this very prestigious judging appointment. What an honour and the pinnacle of anyones judging career, and what an absolutely fabulous day in the Cairn ring.

Thank you to all of the exhibitors, both from home and from abroad, and thank you to my stewards, Kim and Ken, who kept me on the straight and narrow most of the time.

The quality of the majority of the Cairns was excellent.

I think that this was a very unique day for the Cairn Breed.

On a general note, movement could have been better. Quite a few dogs had jumbled or missing teeth and some had dirty teeth! Coats were generally very good, but there were a few open coats, and some had ‘products’ on their coats, which hadn’t been groomed out properly. Temperaments of our breed were sound.

DCC & BOB - (Short listed in Terrier Group) – Multi Ch. Hjohoo’s Yes Hjo Can [ATC52912SWE] (Miss Theodorsson)

2^nd Ballingers, Cloverbrook Game Set and Match. 10 month old, grey brindle. Strong masculine head. Nicely placed shoulders, deep brisket. Long in loin, which spoils his balance and conformation.

JUNIOR DOG – Entries 3

1^st Hiam’s Carradine Arfa Pint JW. Red brindle in good coat.  Good head with well set ears, good depth of brisket, level topline and good tailset.. Strong hind quarters making for good movement.

2^nd Asmyhr’s Corynthean Sunspotter at Motoppen. Wheaten, another in good coat. Not a lot between him and the 1^st, very similar conformation and movement.

3^rd Gordon’s King’s Scotch and Soda Glen Brullemail. Masculine head and expression, well proportioned, good depth of brisket and level topline. Carry’s his tail a bit high when excited, which spoilt his outline.

YEARLING DOG – Entries 5, (I Abs)

1^st Pett’s, Doonrae Sentinel. Wheaten Brindle. Typical Cairn head and expression, good mouth. Nice length of neck, level topline. Strong hind quarters, moved well. Promising future.

2^nd Goldstein’s IL Ch Hjohoo’s HJO Make Me Smile CRMLW22. Dark Brindle in good coat, very alert. Masculine head and expression, nice eye, good stop, large teeth. Very similar to 1^st, except for movement and carriage of tail.

3^rd Lucas & Tobutt’s Seveek Country Lad, grey brindle, correct texture coat, short on head furnishings at present. needs to mature and muscle up, moved ok.

POST GRADUATE DOG – Entries 3(1 Abs)

1^st Morley’s Kanawha Spy Man. Grey brindle, nice head and expression, good neck set onto well placed shoulders. Firm topline. Good tailset. Needs more hair on his hind legs to finish the picture. Moved well.

2^nd Bingham’s Carradine Bumbling Boris. Smaller in size to 1^st, but everything in proportion. Good masculine head, good mouth. Not as positive in movement as 1^st.

LIMIT DOG - Entries 6

1^st Parker-Tuckers Uniquecottage Grey Borage. Wheaten, with a ‘profuse’ coat. Masculine head and expression, have watched this dog blossom and he’s just beginning to come into his own. He’s as sound as a pound. Solid topline, good tailset. Well muscled hind quarters, that gave him the drive around the ring. Just needs a bit more animation. A dog to watch.

2^nd Theodorsson’s Hjohoo’s I’m addicted to Hjo. Grey brindle. Loved his outline. He’s got everything going for him, but not so good on his front movement. Showed well.

3^rd Shopland’s Cherrycrack Horatio. Wheaten in good coat. Loved his head and expression, good neck, good shoulder placement, level topline and moved well, but could have shown a bit more animation.

OPEN DOG – ENTRIES 13 (1 Abs)

What an absolutely stunning class, I was spoilt for choice, however it turned out to be a family affair.

1^st Theodorsson’s Multi Ch Hjohoo’s Yes Hjo Can (Handled by Merril Schmitt), and what a duo they made. This is one special dog, as I have said before a ‘once in a lifetime dog’.

Handler and dog were as one, it was a pleasure to watch them. The show ring was his and didn’t he know it.

There is nothing I can say that has already been said by judges that have previously had the pleasure to go over him. He certainly was a ‘show stopper’. I was honoured to award him the D.C.C. and B.O.B. He was also shortlisted in the Terrier Group.

2^nd Theodorsson’s US Ch/se(u) Ch/dkCh/nouCh. Hjohoo’s It’s Hjour Time to Shine. Red, with good coat. Litter brother to 1^st. Another excellent dog from this kennel, out of a slightly bigger mould than his brother, but preferred the conformation and movement of 1^st.

3^rd Well, “Whose the daddy?” Firth’s Ch. Cairngold Chico JW, Sire of 1^st & 2^nd, he has certainly put his stamp on his two sons. Not only is he producing the goods, but he can also strut his stuff in the showring.
