CAIRN PAIGNTON 09 Judge: Mr D Winsley CAIRN JUDGE PAIGNTON 09 Since I last judged the breed in 2007 I thought then heads were improving, I was very disappointed generally in the heads I saw today in many dogs. They lack the correct proportions, many did not have a definite stop & muzzles in many were snipey. General type was mixed, the quality in bitches was way in front of the dogs! The breed need more quality dogs, they are the studs of the future!! Movement still needs to improve, soundness is not uniform throughout the breed. MPD. (1) 1. Weinberger’s Correnie Tornado. A well grown wheaten brindle youngster, has plenty of confidence. Pleasing head with good ear placement & dark eyes, good length of neck. Level topline & correct tail set, good depth of ribs. Good bend of stifle, moved better behind than in front. Found him to be up on the leg and therefore more squarish in shape than oblong. PD. (5) (2) 1. Weinberger’s Larchlea Come Fly With Me to Correnie. Red brindle youngster, Has a good type of head with a more defined stop than many here today. Well filled muzzle, dark well set eyes, neat ears with correct placement, good expression. Good neck, shoulders and level topline. Good in front and definitely sound behind. Has a quality coat, and showed well. A little up on the leg but better balanced than his kennel mate. 2. Goud’s Vale of Atholl’s Shaggy Grey Buck. Wheaten, smaller in type than 1. Has a very pleasing head & expression, good dark eyes. Nice reach of neck, a little upright in shoulder hence his untidy front action. Topline needs to level off, good body for spring and depth of ribs, but could carry a little more body. Nicely made hindquarters and correct tail set. Shortish coat but of good texture, happy boy. 3. Tutching’s Tribannon Gypsy King YD. (3) 1. Parker-Tucker’s Uniquecottage Raleigh. Red brindle, appealed in outline & balance. Would prefer a more defined stop & darker eye. Has a good neck, correct angulated shoulders & straight front. Bodywise has the desired balance, well sprung ribs & correct length of loin. Well made hindquarters, correct tail set. In nice coat & condition, moved & showed well. 2. Downie & Tate’s Jaeva Face The Music. Grey brindle with a really nice masculine head & expression. Straight front but slack in front action. Has a really good body, correct hindquarters, tail carriage could be improved. Coat in need of tidying up, texture ok. 3. Ough’s Ocedar Benji PGD. (1) 1. Vale of Atholl’s At Long Last. Masculine dog with the type of head I was expecting to see, defined stop, nice well placed dark eyes & correct expression. Good neck & shoulders, excellent body for ribbing & balance. Strong well made hindquarters which he knows how to use, plenty of muscling. Tail carriage at times a little ‘gay’, coat of excellent quality & put down very well. Showed all out, moves fluently keeping a true outline & deserved the CC today. LD. (1) 1. Peer’s Tweedisle Guy Mannering. Grey, more refined than I would like for a male. In short coat which spoilt the overall balance. Has nice dark eyes & correct ear placement, good reach of neck. Straight front, good depth of ribs & liked his bend of stifle. Tailset correct & carries it well. Quite a sound mover, would prefer him to have more bone & substance. OD. (2) (1) 1. Hogarty’s Ir Ch Cadagio The Unexpected. Standing looks really good, has a lovely true Cairn head, well placed ears & a pleasing width of muzzle. Good neck, a little upright in shoulder & with a true topline & a well balanced shape. Nicely sprung ribs, carrying the right amount of condition, good bend of stifle & correct tail set. In excellent coat, nicely prepared. Lost out on movement which I found to be erratic. RCC. MPB. (4) 1. Osborn’s Tweslam Winter Magic. Very promising 6 month old red, nicely balanced for her age & showed with confidence. Head wise has the correct shape of head that will continue to improve. Nice size for a bitch of this age, good reach of neck, straight front with correct shoulder placement. I thought she had a good body & was well balanced. Well made hindquarters, correct tail set, in good coat. Moved soundly both ways. Best Puppy. 2. Oldale’s Tweslam Dawn Chorus at Cranae. Litter sister to 1. A little bigger all over, not quite so balanced as 1. Similar in many ways head wise & front construction. Outline needs to improve, she was carrying a good amount of body. Once she settled then moved well both ways. 3. McIntyre’s Glenchess Chloe PB. (9) (3) 1. Shaw’s Honeyhall Halliwell. Very femine head & expression as one expects from this kennel, good eye colour & correctly placed ears. Good reach of neck & correct shoulders, nice straight front. Balanced & well made body, correct hindquarters. Not in the best of coats, needed more hair on the tail. Appeared a little unsettled at first, but moved & showed well enough to win this class. 2. Weinberger’s Correnie Cherie Amour. Silver with another nice head, defined stop & correct expression. Nice reach of neck, good body, lovely turn of stifle. Correct tail set, nice out line. Needs more coat to perfect a balanced picture. Moved well both ways, showing well. 3. Goud’s Vale of Atholl’s Bonnie Halloway JB. (6) First Quality class of the day! 1. Hogarty’s Cadagio Make It Happen. Outstanding red youngster, who has a good head & expression, well placed ears & nicely filled fore-face. Lovely balanced outline, nice quality body, good coupling. A well made back-end, with short hocks, decent bone & correct tailset. In nice coat put down in good order. Moved soundly and a steady show girl, should have a bright future. 2. Smee’s A High Class Baby at Malmay. Similar to 1, nice pleasing head & expression, good reach of neck. Nicely balanced body, good hindquarters which she used well. In pleasing coat & well presented. Just not so positive as 1 in front action. 3. Brown’s Bencana Sunday Best YB. (4) 1. Dolan’s Glenrood Warrior Princess. Silver grey with a pleasing head, lovely dark eye giving the correct expression. Nice length of neck, good shoulder placement and straight front. She has a good body for length of back & coupling, just appears a touch tall as lacking belly coat. Good hind-quarters which are well muscled and she drives off well. Correct tail set & a good texture to her coat, showed well. 2. Parker-Tucker’s Uniquecottage Sea Breeze. Red brindle who also has a nice feminine head & expression. I really liked her outline & well balanced shape. Another with a strong back-end who showed off her positive movement. In nice coat & condition. 3. Byrne’s Litte Miss Tonka PGB. (7) (2) 1. Poile’s Kedvaiy Liza With A Z. Lovely red girl, nice for size & overall balance. She has a very good head, correct in all points, dark expressive eyes with nicely filled foreface. Good reach of neck, correct shoulder angulation & straight front. Well made body, level topline & correct length for true balance. Good turn of stifle, short neat hocks & correct tail set. In a a good coat of the correct texture, nothing over done in this girl. She was so sound both ways & showed with plenty of animation. 2. Osborn’s Tweslam Serendipity. Slightly smaller silver wheaten. Another who had the type of head I was wanting to see, lots of true expression. Nicely made well balanced body, well made back-end. Tail set correct, in nice coat & condition. Just lost out to 1 on front action. 3. Dodd’s Tribannon Fair Lady LB. ( 6) (1) 1. Clarke’s Conundrum Sweeter For Me For Lentricia. Silver grey bitch who had one of the best heads today, defined stop, dark expressive eyes & good fore-face but remaining totally feminine. Very balanced outline, good in neck & shoulders, excellent straight front. Ideal body shape, good spring & depth of ribs. Well made hindquarters, good turn of stifle short in hock & good feet. Correct tail set, level topline, in excellent coat & condition. Free fluent movement & showed all out. CC & BOB 2. Smee’s Malmay Sky’s The Limit. Grey girl, not quite so pleasing in head as 1, would like a slightly smaller eye. She has a good neck, shoulders & front. Well made mature body, balanced outline. Well made hindquarters which she knows how to use. In good coat & condition. 3. Dolan’s Glenrood Forever Topps OB. (4) (2) 1. Shaw’s Ch Honeyhall Hide’N Seek. Red, feminine & balanced girl, nice head & expression, neat well placed ears & dark eye. Good length of neck, correct in shoulder & straight front. Good body proportions, nice spring of rib & correct loin. Good hindquarters with a good turn of stifle, plenty of muscling. Tail set & carriage correct, in good coat & condition. Moved rather close behind which was a deciding factor for top honours. RCC. 2. Thompson’s Ch Castleline Bonnie. Disappointed me in head, though her ears & eyes are well placed. Good neck & outline. Pleasing front & body, strong back-end. She has a nicely balanced body, not in the best of coats today. Moved quite well. David Winsley (Judge)
