DANDIE DINMONT JUDGE BATH 09

Dandie Dinmont Terriers

How I enjoyed judging the breed. I am hooked on them since I had a visitor with two young bitches who made themselves immediately at home. Wonderful character in the breed. In the 1970s I gave a Dandie of the late Harry Drury RBIS at Scunthorpe & remember well what he later told me about the breed. Enjoyed this entry, quality exhibits.

OD

1 Margham Moon Duster, pepper of good body shape. Could be just a little longer. Good movement, excellent coat texture. Tail a little too long. Masculine head which could have a little more rise of skull & slightly shorter foreface but he has a lot of type & quality & made a pleasing overall picture. BD;

2 Margham Go For Gold with Maganbar, litter brother, mustard. I slightly preferred his head for proportions & skull shape. Not the topline nor movement of 1. RBD.

PB

1 Cloverwood Lemon Drizzle, 10 months mustard, beautiful puppy of excellent length & shape, beautiful head for skull shape & muzzle proportions. For me the best head of the day for proportions. Excellent movement, should have a great future. I would be happy to own this one. Coat coming on nicely, obviously still babyish but great quality & type. RBB & BP;

2 Maganbar Silver Geisha, 11 months pepper, good coat texture, good length of body. Head a little long & needs to develop a little more stop. Sound but not the shape of 1 at the moment.

JB

1 Cloverwood Razzberry Ice, 11 months, of good length & shape, very good head & eyes, fine ear leathers, well made all through & accurate on the move. Just needs a little more confidence;

2 Clearwater Memphis Belle, mustard. Slightly heavier in body & a little heavy in front which shows in her front movement. Good head, eyes & ears, sound rear. A little less weight would give more shape to her body. Has a lot to like.

PGB

1 Swanwillow Passion Flower, mustard of good length & correct body shape. Coat just coming in. Excellent mover. Head needs time to develop, a little long in foreface at the moment. Pigment could be stronger. Excellent carriage & really good drive from the quarters;

2 Millerim Reubis Jeudi, pepper of good coat & colour, strong skull which is a little flat, strong muzzle, excellent hind action. Topline a little exaggerated but has a lot of breed type;

3 Stinchcombe Rosa Mundie.

OB

1 Ch Swanwillow Savannah, top quality mustard, lovely body shape, excellent coat, very good movement at both ends holding body shape well, good skull & eyes, looked the finished product. BOB;

2 Dengold Gypsy Moth at Millerim, pepper, excellent texture of coat, weasel like body shape, good head proportions. Not front action of 1.
