FOX SMOOTH JUDGE EAST OF ENGLAND 10

Smooth Fox Terriers

I received an excellent entry with many quality dogs on show & I thank the exhibitors for their support, especially in the current climate. The breed has certainly improved since I last judged. Better heads, shoulders & feet were to the fore.

However, there are still problems with movement which needs to be addressed. One thing that did concern me was that many had dirty teeth & there are no excuses for this. Thanks must go to my excellent stewards who helped make this a most enjoyable day.

PD (0).

JD (1)

1 Marston’s Chipstead Cello, all white with tan ears, very nice body shape, great bone, legs & feet, free flowing on the move, just needs to settle. I would prefer a leaner head. More preparation is required to his coat to show off his quality.

PGD (3)

1 Tindle’s Jesuie Un Rock Star, t/w with a good outline, nice head & expression with good ears, good legs & feet. Needs to settle more on the move & also a little less weight would be to his advantage;

2 Brookes’ Mischief In Disguise for Zetamaz, t/w dog with a nice outline & excelling in body shape, good legs & feet, moved OK. I would prefer a leaner head & needs to use his ears which would help to complete the overall picture;

3 Goodley’s Tuskenraider Stormtrooper, t/w of good overall shape, nice bone, legs & feet, in good coat & condition. Did not move to advantage on the day.

LD (3)

1 Marston’s Chipstead Gulliver from Classicway, b/w, stylish with good type, nice legs & feet, good neck & shoulders, moved OK. I would prefer a longer head to complete the picture;

2 Broom’s Roxway Editor, b/w dog with nice body shape, fair head. Needs time to mature. On the day a little erratic on the move;

3 Baker’s Tuskenraider Stormtrooper, t/w with good overall type. I would prefer a leaner head. Front movement is not his fortune.

OD (6)

1 Jones & Griffiths’ Ch Yoxella White Tie, b/w with lovely overall shape, nice head qualities with good expression, good legs with the best of feet, in good coat & condition, moved well to win this strong class. CC;

2 Julian’s Vertway Scots Guard at Lanyons, t/w, quality dog of good overall shape, nice head & ears with a good expression, good legs & feet, in nice condition & well presented. His turn will surely come. RCC;

JB (5,3)

1 Morris’ Sanamaris Spill The Beans, b/w, lovely overall shape, quality head with good ears, nice expression, good bone, legs & feet, moved OK. Lacked her usual showmanship. Perhaps a season is due;

PGB (3)

1 Tindle’s Jesuie Mystic, b/w, short coupled with great type, excels head & expression, nice ears which she uses to advantage, good bone, legs & feet, moved OK. However, a little less weight would improve. One I liked. RCC;

1 Horspool’s Ch Rotur Celtic Desire of Adaires, b/w, quality bitch excelling type, lovely head, eye & ears with a great expression, nice neck & shoulders with good body shape, good legs & feet, moved well, in lovely nick & well presented, reminds me so much of John Lowe’s famous Lanneau bitches. CC, BOB & G3;

2 Laws’ Sufredon Soulmate, b/w, very nice bitch, so typical of this kennel, lovely headed with a good expression, nice neck & shoulders, good body shape, moved well & in lovely condition, pushed hard for major honours.
