Cesky Terrier Club

THE CESKY TERRIER CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW

17th JULY 2022

SPECIAL AWARD CLASSES

I would like to thank the Committee for putting on these Special Award Classes and inviting me to judge them. I would also like to thank the exhibitors for staying on to participate in them on such a hot day and, also my Steward, who kept things moving.

Special Junior, (6, 1a) 1, Ellison’s Placido Oriana, 12 month Bitch, lovely head with good bite, dark eye, well placed ears, good front, good reach of neck, well ribbed, good topline which she held on the move, moved well out and back, good tail carriage. 2, Goundry’s Komidion Symphoniques at Sarminija, 7 month Bitch, another pleasing youngster, good head and bite, neat ears, enough neck, well ribbed, good topline, moved well. 3, Richardson’s Talyot Norman, 6 month Dog, acquitted himself well for what I believe was his first show. Good head and bite, dark eye, good neck and shoulders, good spring of rib, moved well once settled.

Special Post Graduate, (3, 1a) 1, Pratt’s Proxima Centauri, 2 year old Bitch, well balanced outline, lovely head with good bite, correct ears, dark eye, good reach of neck, good front, well ribbed with good loin, moved well holding topline, good tail carriage. 2, Burrage’s Komidion Sonata for Sametova, 7 month Bitch, unlucky to meet 1 but her time will come, good head and ears, enough neck, good spring of rib, good topline, moved well. I see she went ResBPiS.

Special Open, (4, 1a) 1, England & Burrage’s Ch Ashleyheath’s Black Thunder ShCM ShCEx, 9 year old Dog. I judged this dog 3 years ago when he went TG1. He shows no sign of slowing down, excellent head with good bite, dark eye and correct ears, good reach of neck, good front and shoulders, well ribbed with well muscled loin, good hindquarters, moved with drive both going and in profile holding topline well, good tail carriage. Looked as though he owned the ring. I see he went a well deserved RBiS. 2, Burrage’s Ch Komidion Night Music at Sametova ShCM ShCEx VW, 12 year old Bitch, another that I have judged before and a testament to the longevity of Ceskys. Pleasing head and ears, good neck and shoulders, well ribbed with good loin, well carried tail, moved well but not quite the movement of 1. I see she went BViS. 3, Dukes & Rogers’ Placido Musical Miracle at Runiks, 3 year old Bitch, pleasing head, good bite, enough neck, good shoulders, moved well, good tail carriage.
