Midland Cairn Terrier Club

Single breed open show 14th March 2009

Judge: Helen Pearson

 

I would like to thank the officers and committee of the Midland Cairn Terrier Club for giving me the opportunity to judge this show.  As always there was a happy, relaxed atmosphere, and I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Sincere thanks should also go to all the exhibitors who gave me a good entry and allowed me to judge their dogs.  All temperaments were excellent and overall quality was high. Some classes presented me with some difficult decisions.  Thank you.

 

Veteran dog/bitch (4)

1)     Petts’ Doonrae Dragoon A well presented nine year old dark brindle dog who impressed with his typical head and expression. Good bite. Straight front and well balanced; well muscled hind quarters and in excellent condition.  Moved soundly. BV

 

2)     Jennings’ Doonrae Youthfulness  A ten year old dark brindle bitch, good head and expression with correctly shaped eyes and neat ears. Correct bite. Preferred overall picture of 1)

 

3) Jennings’ Doonrae Virtuoso

 

Minor Puppy Dog (4)

 

A lovely class of puppies

1) Shannon, Storr and Culliford’s  Brenndarcy Trouble at Mill  A delightful six month old puppy at his first show.  Masculine head, straight front, good reach of neck flowing into correctly placed shoulders and a level topline and correct tail set. Very well proportioned.  Moved confidently.  Just needs to tighten in front.  Showed well. Will watch his progress with interest.

 

2)Peers’ Tweedisle That Lone Guy  A seven month old wheaten puppy with a lovely head and expression and desirable dark mask. Well presented and well balanced with good bone, a level topline and correct tailset.  Promising.

1)     Wall’s Cloverbrook Ray of Sunshine Over Shearwater  A very self assured nine month old red dog.  Superb head and expression, excellent bite.  Correct front with good bone and correct reach of neck.  Well placed shoulders running into excellent topline which was held on the move.  Coat of excellent quality. Presented in very good condition and moved freely both ways responding well to handler.  An exciting prospect. Best Puppy in Show

 

2)     Warne’s Spirebrook Dawn Raider Liked this grey brindle nine month old puppy a lot. Different type to 1) but another excellent head and expression.  Good bone, correct reach of neck, well balanced and correct bend of stifle.  Moved well both ways.  Coat just on the blow. Unlucky to come up against 1) in such fine fettle.

 

3)     Tweedisle Speedy Ric Shaw

 

 

Junior Dog (5) A strong class

1)     Inett and Harrison’s Noncom Inett Tu Winnit with Carradine  Masculine wheaten dog who showed with verve and enthusiasm.  Typical head with good bite and powerful jaws.  Good shoulders and well balanced angulation and an excellent coat.

I was spoilt for choice!

1) Fife’s Andrum Peace Treaty  A very feminine cream bitch, beautifully presented.  Well furnished, typical head with delightful expression with a hint of mischief. Well angulated and very well balanced with correct tail set.  However, shown in profuse coat. The best mover in this class today – will watch her progress with interest

 

2)     Waites’ Svendalens Crazy Diamond. Another beautiful puppy bitch, only six months old, sympathetically handled to her best advantage. Super coat for one so young, good head with strong muzzle and good bite. Sound throughout, presented a typical outline.

Puppy Bitch (11,3a)

Once again, a very strong class

An excellent class

2)     Burgin’s Noncom Miss Hat He Chewed  This seventeen month old bitch pushed 1) very hard – Typical head with good bite, good reach of neck and level topline. Good bend of stifle and strong hindquarters ensured she moved with drive around the ring and was shown in excellent condition.  Well presented with a good coat.  Expertly handled to her very best advantage. It was a close decision between 1) and 2) but I preferred the balance of the winner.

 

3)     Shannon and Storr’s Brenndarcy Button It

 

Maiden Bitch (5,2a)

 

1)     Clarke’s Lentrica Daddies Girl  Nine month old cream bitch, very feminine and with a very appealing, mischievous expression, aided by her dark points.
