Southern Counties Canine Association

Southern Counties Canine Association 2018 – Friday 1st June

Cavalier King Charles Spaniels

Firstly I wish to thank the Officers and committee of Southern Counties for asking me to judge at this well organised show. I also thank my very proficient stewards who kept the ring running to enable my BOB to get into the group ring on time.

I was extremely pleased with my entry in size and quality and thank you all for your entries but can I just say that as exhibitors you need to watch your own dog move. Some rear actions left a lot to be desired. Also I feel the quality is better in the bitches than the dogs but I do realise there were a few males missing today. After saying that I was very pleased with my winners and congratulate them.

MPD 5(0) 1. Rees’ Embeth Wishmaker. Blen baby of just 6 mths. Once he settled you could appreciate how well made he is. Short coupled with a good set on tail. Nice angulation starting to show through his puppy coat. Loved his expression and his exuberance.

2. Lovel’s Pascavle Hudson At Lovetrac. Blen Boy of 9 mths well marked and good angulation. Lovely dark pigment and good size eye for head, soft expression. More mature than 1 but not quite the balance.

3.Spall & Clark’s Korraines Peaky Blinder at Llapsttam.

PD 2(1) 1. Paradise’s Sunsante Arrow to Shardlow. 10mth black & tan boy who stood alone. Nice head with good bright tan. Well placed ears and round dark eye. Coat coming in nicely but he is quite immature yet. His body needs more time.

JD 4(2) 1. Hughes’ Granasil Lovelace Loranka. Smart Ruby boy who has a beautiful shape and good angulation. Pleasing head with well set ears framing his lovely dark eyes and cushioned face. He moved out with style keeping a good topline and carrying his tail level with his back. His coat is a true ruby colour and he has plenty of feathering.

2. Crane’s Cranvale Washington. A blen. dog with a beautiful head. Lovely dark eyes and dense pigment framed by well set ears gave him a soft melting expression. He has good angulation and a wealth of coat. He just lost his shape a little on the move today.

3. Stansbury’s Cathmead Michael Roughan at Dooraclare.

YD 8(1) This class was the best of the day for depth of quality.

1. Bayliss’ Castlewytch Red Admiral. This young boy stood out for balance and breed type. He is an excellent size with short coupled body. He was lovely to go over and didn’t disappoint on the move. He has jet black pigment and a melting expression without losing masculinity all framed with well placed ears. He has a good length of neck leading into well placed shoulders a level topline and tailset. He moved out true and stood four square. I was very pleased to award him DCC.

2. Levy & Sedgwick’s Pascavale Tommy. Another smart blen who is an ideal size with a broad skull and lovely expression. Large dark eyes and lovely dark pigment. Long well feathered ears set on correctly and framing his soft masculine head. Excellent neck and shoulders with good spring of rib. Kept his level topline and tail carriage at all times. In full coat of rich chestnut colour. RCC.

3. Koster’s Harana Dean Martin.

MD 6(0) 1. Hughes’ Loranka’s Glory Days. A delightful blen with a richly coloured coat. Handsome head with kind expression. Well constructed body with level back and good angulation. Well sprung ribs and good tail carriage. Moved out well. In my final 4.

GD 4(1) 1. Coole’s Jolainey Frederick JW. Good quality Blen with just the right amount of filling. Dark round eye giving the desired expression. His pigment is superb. He moved soundly and kept a level topline and tail carriage. He was well presented with good coat and colour.
