Kerry Blue Terrier, Welsh Kennel Club 2024

Puppy Dog (1)

1. Kebulak That’s A Wrap,

Eleven months old puppy of excellent type and quality, even if at a rather leggy stage right now. A very attractive head with very good length and head planes. Excellent ears. Long neck. Well set. Firm topline and excellent tailset, in all making a smart outline. Moderately angulated both ends, he will need to drop down into his angles. Excellent coat for his age. Moved easily and steadily. Best Puppy and resCC

Junior Dog (1)

1. Kebulak Royal Flush

Very attractive masculine dog of high quality, I would not want him any larger. Beautiful head and expression. Excellent neck. Excellent outline from his lovely proportions, topline and tailset. Well angulated behind. Excellent coat quality, now just starting to develop his blue colour. Moved with style, balance and co-ordination, if a little parading in front at this age. CC

Open Dog (2,2)

Veteran Bitch (1)

1. Joalyn Sweet Melody

Well proportioned, elegant bitch. Very pleasing head, if rather light in eyes. Very moderately angulated in front. Firm topline, pleasing tailset. I would prefer a softer coat with more shine to it. Very good colour. Moved light on her feet. Best Veteran

Junior Bitch (2)

1. Kebulak Velvet Rose

Attractive feminine, well proportioned young bitch. Feminine head with excellent head planes and a lovely expression. Very good ears. Firm topline. Moderately angulated behind. In a pleasing coat for her age. She all came together in movement firm in front. Well handled.

2. Joalyn Parsley Moon

Quite an attractive bitch with an excellent coat and already blue coloured. Pleasing head and ears. Good rise of neck. Firm topline. Good tail. Less co-ordinated in movement, but in glimpses moved quite well.

Post Graduate Bitch

1. Croftsblu The Nipper

Bitch of pleasing type and quality and quite good proportions, but not quite as elegant as I prefer. Strong in head for a bitch. Expressive. Excellent forechest, deep and capacious body. Firm topline, well set tail. Very good coat. Could do with more drive and rather bow-legged behind.

Limit Bitch (1)

1. Pillow Talk at Dogazza

Strong and smart bitch, feminine enough. Attractive head, excellent expression. Firm topline, if on the longer side. Excellent tailset. Balanced angulation both ends. She moved very well from the side, if rather bow-legged behind. Well prepared and handled, her coat could be softer and silkier.

Open Bitch (3)

1. Ch. Cyres Nancy Drew

Very attractive bitch of excellent type and quality. Not small, but feminine and very well balanced. Very attractive head with excellent length and planes. Keen expression. Long and crested neck. Well up on legs and with a matching both length, creating a lovely outline. Balanced angulation. Excellent coat and colour. She moved out with plenty of energy and drive, at all times retaining her balance. CC & BOB

2. Ch. Showtime Lady at Lemracdream

The winner and this bitch could change places depending upon the judges priorities. This is another lovely bitch of excellent size, she stood so very well over her legs and feet. Long and strong neck. Very well angulated in both ends. I would prefer a little more length of leg under her. Excellent head and expression. Strong topline. Another who moved out very well and sound coming and going, at all times keeping her balance. resCC
