HUNGARIAN VIZSLA CLUB OPEN SHOW 17TH March 2024

SPECIAL AWARD CLASSES

Many thanks to the Club for giving the opportunity to go over such a good entry. At the average open show it is hard to find large enough classes to make meaningful comparisons, and also to lay hands on established top dogs as a benchmark of quality. I thoroughly enjoyed judging the dogs, and learned a lot in the process. I hope it was also enjoyable for the exhibitors and dogs who so kindly entered under me.

JUNIOR (5)

1 Reakes’ VIZSLANYA VARUR WITH THRIHYRNE JW – masculine young dog, well developed and just right for his age. Super head and expression . Strong bone and correct front and sternum. Muscled neck led to body with correct width and depth of chest. Unexaggerated angulation front and rear allowed him to move with style and drive.

2 Morton & Milicevic’s BITCON PUT A SPELL ON YOU – 6 month baby , very confident. Lovely shape and balance for age. Sweetest head with good eye colour . Correct angulation fore and aft. Good bone and front. Went around the ring like a veteran.

3 Aynsley’s VIZASH HEIRESS OF CAORUNN - lovely outline which gained her this place but very unsettled on the move. Feminine head, good angulation both ends. Just needs to curb her enthusiasm.

1 Novis’ SJAZANI EKKO AT NOVAPAK – very feminine bitch, pretty head. Good bone, front and feet. Neck of good length into well laid shoulders. Deep chest to well-fitting elbows. Strong topline and correct angulation. Moved with style and drive.

OPEN (10)

1 Bradley’s HIGHFORCE ALL OR NOTHING JW – I didn’t recognise dog or handler today but was later told that I had done him very well as a young puppy. Now coming to his best, an all male upstanding dog with balance and attitude. Super head and expression, strong, well-muscled body with correct angulation. Moved with style, accuracy and ground-covering stride
