CAIRN SOUTHERN COUNTIES 14 Judge(s): MAGGIE SHOPLAND (CHERRYCRACK) Thanks to the committee of Southern Counties for inviting me to judge at this well run show held in a very good location, also to my three stewards for the smooth running of the judging. Many thanks to the exhibitors for supporting me. So much has been written regarding the lack of depth of quality in cairns, there is no need for me to say more. A couple of incorrect mouths, more concerning is the bold eye, there were a few. I was more than pleased with both my line ups and spoilt for choice for both RCCs, the Best Puppy was lovely MPD 1 1. Kinchins Pennidazzle All Spruced Up - he has a tight but very good grey brindle jacket, at a very gangly stage well up to size, good big teeth, and plenty of bone, stands correctly, hard to assess movement, not quite balanced yet needs time PD 2 1. Parker Tucker's Uniquecottage Winsford light red needs new coat, good for size and balance, typical head, in hard condition, saw enough of his movement 2 Peers Tweedisle Relight My Fire Clear red in very full coat which spoilt his very good top line, appealing head, good for body shape, balanced, both these pups movement was wayward, his more so JD 1 1 Paige's Glenrood Trojan Horse dark grey brindle in good coat sensibly presented not overdone in any way, he responds well to his handler, head of correct proportions, keen expression, neat ears, very good bite, stands and moves well going and coming, balanced and well muscled, real cairn immature yet for higher honours but stood well in the challenge PGD 4. 1 Innett & Engebretsen Carradine Dexter - copper brindle lovely head, expressive eye, good stop, clean neck and shoulders, level top line, well muscled, moves with drive expertly handled and well presented 2 Waughs Tribannon War Dance - wheaten in full coat, best of heads, good bite big teeth, correct front and rear assembly moved well away and back not cooperating with his handler, coat needs attention 3 Drews Tycadno Thriller At L'Artiste LD 4 1. Thomas' Tycadno I Spy - wheaten brindle in good coat, has breed type, lovely head, good bite, expressive eye, so well constructed, level top line good tail set, stands well and moves with drive sensibly presented giving a lovely outline he's a handful but a real cairn CC BOB makes him up 2. Waites Svendalens Snow Knight wheaten brindle up to size, not in the best of coats it was uneven thick and short in places, lacking head furnishings enough forechest, well bodied and moved well, he never looked settled 3 Parker Tucker's Uniquecottage Jumbuck, OD 2 1.
