Terrier Club of Devon & Cornwall

16th February 2020

An enjoyable day spent with the Terrier fraternity, such a sporting bunch. The weather was against us but typically most braved the elements but obviously, some absentees

Best In Show was the Fox Terrier (Wire) Wynter’s ROBELROY MANY DREAMS AT FURLINGFOX, handled and presented to perfection. Such an imposing outline stacked on the tip of his toes and alert. Long, lean head, firm topline and tail set bang on. Moved out smartly to clinch the top spot. Should carry a title.

Res Best In Show went to the Staffordshire Bull Terrier bitch Hands and Freeman’s GAZSTAFF’S BLACK VELVET AT SKYESTAFF. Showing great strength and muscle tone yet retaining a look of femininity. She was in super condition with a sheen on her coat. Agile on the move and powerful. Handled well.

Group 3: went to the young but supremely smart jack Russel Terrier Mignano-Fricker & Fricker’s MULTI CH ALGRAFS REMBO WITH CALAVEY. Still to fully mature but he shows great promise and is the most eye-catching shape, particularly on the move. Presented to the hair. Good one

Group 4: The Dandie Dinmont Terrier Harcourt-Morris’ DAINTY DANDIES RIVER MERSEY AT LENACOURT. Decent pepper dog with a super head and expression. Correct for size and outline. Good coat of the correct texture. Moved on the right track and is sound as they come. Good one.

Best Puppy In Show went to the oh so charming and extremely promising West Highland White Terrier Thomson’s ASHGATE KEEPSAKE. 6 months and full of promise. Super head and expression. Correct neck and head carriage. Liked her shape being compact, strong and deep through. Still a baby but so much to come from this one. Even at her tender age, he movement and carriage was exemplary. Will follow her career with interest.

Res Best Puppy In Show, the Manchester Terrier Heller & House’s MARABLUE MCQUEEN OF FLOREYDOWN, nearing a year and showing a typical outline stacked. Liked her head and expression with good mouth and strong teeth. On the move she could sometimes be distracted, but she showed me what she could do and so could not be ignored

Pup Group 3: The Norfolk Terrier Mullan & McFadden’s WATERCROFT POP MUZIK AT TAMODAN, so typical of his breeding showing so much type and character. Liked his head and expression, good for size and coat texture coming along. Still young and a tad wayward on the move but has a future I’m sure.

Pup Group 4: the Staffordshire Bull Terrier Daly-Lees’ BOSCADOR FLAMING WARRIOR, liked her balance and condition. Moved out well and liked her head and expression. In gleaming condition.

Best Veteran In show went to the Border Terrier Baird’s TOJAMATT DEBUTANTE FOR DOWGRI SHCM. In sparkling form and in excellent coat. Super head and expression. Firm topline and balanced in outline. Moved out very smartly. Credit to her owner.
