I had my first Cairn Terrier in
1981. He was out of the Dormerhall, Lofthouse & Uniquecottage
lines. My husband and I decided that
we wanted to show him but unfortunately, he was not a show dog but we had
got the bug.
In 1989 we got our prefix
Zalazar and had our first litter. From this litter we got our first
champion Zalazar Arrige Alice. Our
original lines were mainly from Redletter and Snorrehus
lines, in later years we introduced Larchlea, Penticharm and Birselaw into
our pedigrees.
Through careful breeding we
have produced many top winning Cairns here in Denmark and abroad. These include Cairn Terrier of the year
2000, stud dog of the year with dkch estch plpzsg plsg96 balt.w.98
kbhv99 intch klbch
plsg00 plch euv2000 Zalazar Jackpot, twice
BOB at the Montgomery County in the USA and BOB at Crufts in 2009 with usch Zalazar Walk The Line and Crufts BOB 2010
with GB Ch Zalazar Un Zipped! At Starveren, owned by Mary
Middlehurst.
Other wins include Ch
Zalazar Love Is In The Air who is probably the Cairn with most titles
in Denmark with more than 20 Champion titles and a myriad of winner titles.
Further accolades include many championship titles over in the USA and
Europe and winning Cairn of the year and Terrier of the year here in
Denmark.
I work as a professional dog groomer and
have my own salon where I trim pets and show dogs for other people.
When I judge I look for
attitude, good heads with nice stops, forechest,
good fronts, well set on neck and a good top line, good overall balance and
sound movement. I like small ears and short tails plus good coats.
I was licensed to judge in
2009 for my first breeds and in 2014 I was authorised
for all dogs in FCI group 3 / Terriers.
So far I have judged at championship shows in Sweden, Norway,
Finland, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, Belgium, Holland, Czech, Italy,
France, Germany, Poland and of course Denmark.
It is a great honour to come to the land of origin and I am very much
looking forward to seeing and judging Cairns in the UK for the third
time.
