RIPON & DISTRICT CANINE SOCIETY - 04/06/2023
My thanks to Ripon for the invite and appointment to judge some fabulous dogs in many breeds today, it was also a pleasure to take over the ESS and WSS on behalf of Ellen Lloyd. Sportsmanship was fantastic in most breeds and results accepted graciously with the exception of the Border Terrier ring which has already been discussed widely elsewhere. I was very grateful to Ripon for their hospitality and the way they made myself and Ethan welcome and catered for.
SPANIEL (ENGLISH SPRINGER)
P (1,0) 1 SMITH’S MELVERELY IRIDESCENT. 10m LWT Bitch. The most exquisite workings in the head, with a beautiful eye and expression, it just melts you the minute you walk to front of her. Good length of neck into a well laid shoulders and front. Super ribs, forechest and length of loin. Super tailset and carriage. Moves with true reach and drive, beautifully conditioned and muscled, an honest ESS outline that I am pleased to see continues to take top honours since I judged her. On the day she was PG1 also, which was an immense result. BOB & BP.
J (2,1) 1 RICHARDSON & TERRY RICHARDSONS DAENERY’S MOONDANCER TO CHERISHYM. A 16m LW Bitch. Fair workings in the head, feminine expression. She has a light nose which detracts from an overall picture. She has fair makings all the way through her body, and her construction is adequate however it does hinder her movement which is OK.
PG (1,1) 1. Absent
O (4,0) 1 CHANDLER’S ELAZLAN TRIBAL CRAFT. 16m BW Dog. A dog who fills a picture and is on the larger side for me. He has a good depth of forechest, good spring of rib and a strong rear end that makes him move out with drive. He is verging on coarseness in head for me, he is a little upright in front however he still manages an adequate reach. He is shown in immaculate coat, and muscled to perfection. 2 CUNLIFFE’S IR SH CH CALVDALE I SAY OF FALLENLEAF. Lovely exquisitely feminine bitch of many quality. She has a good middle piece, she was a little unsettled on the move at times today, but still managed a good reach and drive. She was close for the class win. Shown in good condition. 3. RICHARDSON & TERRY RICHARDSONS CHERISHYM DOFIDA.
SPANIEL (WELSH SPRINGER)

She is good on the move, and carries herself well. BP. 2 SHERLOCK’S TIGERROCK HOPES & DREAMS FOR CRIMCAR. A very raw pup, she has a beautiful head and expression.

J (0,0)
PG (2,0) 1 GRAHAM’S NYLIRAM THE MOTH CATCHER. A bitch with a good head and expression, lovely rib and length of loin. She was a good mover and shown in fit condition. 2 BROOK’S EIRIANDYLIS GEORGINA MOON. The dog has a beautiful working in the head, he has a good lay of shoulder, shown in good condition. However, today he did challenge his handler and just wanted to clown around. This dog could have so easily won the class if he has a bit of work on him and his handler.
O (2,1) 1 GRAHAM’S SH CH NYLIRAM TELLING TALES JW . Lovely feminine bitch with a beautiful expression and eye. Good front with a moderate neck into a good lay of shoulder. She is good in size and not over exaggerated. She is shown in fantastic condition. Easy BOB. 2 Absent.

BP. 2 DAVIES ANNASIDE YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE, 6month Red Bitch. Lovely made bitch, who moves beautifully. She has a good head, and a nice body with a good depth of rib and length of loin.

He has a super rib and depth to his front, carries a good length of loin.
