DANDIE DINMONT JUDGE MIDLAND COUNTIES 10

Dandie Dinmont Terrier

Thanks to exhibitors for a good entry of 45, although this was somewhat depleted by absentees. My main concern was thin open feet, short ribcages and lack of muscle tone. Heads were lovely, mouths excellent with big teeth, Movement as always was an issue, Hind movement was better than front, there were too many wide fronts.

PD (1) 

1 Bromleys Mishahda Volacanic Storm 6 and a half mths. Very striking up to size pepper in very good quality coat. Strong masculine head with abundant topknot, dark eye, correct mouth. Good body length, topline rather flatish at the moment but moved well going away. Best Puppy.

PGD (2,1)

1 Hunters Etsill Scapa Flow Small Pepper dog. Head of good proportions although could be more masculine, good stop, dark eye and good bite. Correct topline and tailset, he moved with style on muscular legs and neat feet.

LD (6)

1 Hansfords Cassencarrie Bonnie Lad, Stylish pepper who just powers around the ring. Lovely appealing head and expression, dark eye and good mouth low set ears. Nice length of body with good ribbing and tailset. Excellent mover. RCC

2 Skitt & Jones Vistca Vincent mustard smaller type, Strong masculine head, correct proportions, deep muzzle eyes lighter than 1 , deep chest and good ribbing. Not in his best coat today, presentation could be more polished Feet could be tighter.

3 Millers Puddockswell Moon Shadow at Dryfevalley.

OD (2,1)

1 Denhams Scottsbairn Duke of Ross 4yrs old mature pepper, Lovely masculine dog in excellent quality coat, correct in size, strong in head good mouth, eye could be slightly darker. Good reach of neck, set into good shoulder giving a good front and tight feet. Strong ribbing and well muscled hindquarters he strode out very well front and back. Yes he carries his tail high but I forgave him that for his many virtues. C.C.

PB (5,2)

1 Heywoods Cloverwood Day By Day at Schalulleke 9mths pepper Lovely puppy in 1st class coat, head needs to develop yet, dark eye and fine ears. Good body length, but for balance would like more leg length. Still very immature she moves with enthusiam.

2 Hazelwoods Gypsywish Secret Tune mustard nice sized puppy, lovely topline and tailset. Strong but feminine head, correct mouth. Good front and well ribbed. Moved out well, outline rather swamped by excessive coat. In a new coat will have her day. 

3 Eves Sylvanken Silver Dawn

JB (6,1)

1 Booths Cloverwood Candlelight mustard bitch, feminine and full of quality, correct size lovely flowing topline and set on. Head of good proportions, big teeth, dark eye giving a melting expression. In correct coat, she moved out really well, her handler just needs a bit more confidence.

2 Marshalls Deeganden Lavender of Dun Eideann Slightly larger pepper who has excellent topline and tailset in good quality, if short coat, preferred the head in width of 1. Nice dark eye. Moved really well.

3 Bells Kirkhalin Mystic Prudence.

PGB (6,1)

1 Osbournes Pitfirrane Silver Lady of Braego pepper active and workmanlike, feminine expression, correct mouth with big teeth. lack of topnot makes her look plainer than she actually is. Excellent shoulders and reach of neck, good topline and tailset. Good feet and muscular legs on which she moves soundly when she is moved at the right pace. Furnishings and more polished presentation would complete the picture.

2 Hunters Etsill Inganess Bay pepper smaller than 1 Nicely proportioned head good dark eye giving a melting expression, strong neck, would like more upper arm for reach in front, moved well behind. In good quality coat.

3 Lomas Cloverwood Double Delight.

3 Motlers Wazzly Athena.

OB (7,5)

1 Russells Aust. Ch. Jollygaze Hopeless Romantic for Hawkesmill (Imp) pepper. Correct in size and outline,she is very neatly put together and has ring presence. I would prefer a larger eye and neater feet but her movement front and back is excellent. Quality bitch. CC. & BOB.
