Hungarian Wirehaired Vizsla Club of Great Britain

My sincere thanks to the Committee for their invitation to Judge here today, I was made to feel very welcome, thank you to my steward who was absolutely fantastic and kept things running smoothly.

There was a wide variation in size and coat but I was pleased with the overall quality of my main winners, thanks to all the exhibitors for affording me the privilege of judging their lovely Wire-Haired Vizsla’s.

PD

1. Garstang; Kisdon It’s A Craker, very raw young dog, pleasing expression, but lacking the facial furnishings at the moment, slight arch to neck and level topline with strong bone and tight feet, would prefer longer upper arm and still needs to drop in brisket, coat is harsh to touch but not fully developed yet, needs to tighten up on the move.

JD

1. Campbell; Haywire Texana Vadasz, nicely proportioned head with a gentle expression, moderate neck with well laid shoulder, level topline but a little short in back, good bone but feet need to tighten, still needs to drop in brisket and the coat to develop, moved well with correct tail carriage.

2. Pearson; Lanspar Zsolt, square head and soft expression, fine ears, moderate length of neck, good bone and feet, but lacked body and condition which made him look very rangy, his coat is harsh and his furnishing are starting to develop.

PGD

1. Morton; Ewtor Fly Me To The Moon, medium sized dog with a balanced outline, dark eyes giving him an intelligent expression, clean and moderate in neck, strong level topline, correct spring of rib and good bone, his feet could be tighter and although he has a good covering of coat it was soft to the touch, moved well in profile.
