GLEN OF IMAAL SKC MAY 12 Judge(s) MR D HARLEY DCC AMHARD DAMSON SAUCE (MR M & MRS A HARDY) GLEN OF IMAAL TERRIER Many thanks to the committee of the SKC for their hospitality and the two very capable stewards for making my day enjoyable. My two CC winners where the best movers of the day. Thank you to all exhibitors for your support on this my first appointment awarding CCs. PGD(2) 1 Quin's Kirikee Roan Ogara. Nice head and eye, excellent bite and correct ear shape, good lay of shoulders, deep chest with plenty of heart room, good topline, correct front feet position, a nice lad that will trouble the rest as he matures. I like this boy a lot, but today movement let him down a little as he needed time to settle. 2 Horton's Jeonty Highlander Boy. Good head and eye, good mouth, level topline deep chest, correct tail set, well presented, just preferred the front of first. LD(2, 1) 1 Hardy's Amhard Freebooter. A brindle boy with good mouth, expressive eyes, good neck and shoulders, correct front, correct position of front feet, good angulations front and rear, harsh coat, moved with drive. OD(3) 1 Hardy's Amhard Damson Sauce. Brindle. Correct bite, strong jaw, eyes of good colour, correct ear carriage, correct front with good feet, strong neck, good lay of shoulders. Correct length to upper arm. Good length to height ratio, nice turn of stifle, well muscled, good topline and tail set, correct coat texture. Moved with drive fore and aft. Nicely presented. Was pleased to award him his first CC. Well done. I didn't realise till after the judging that this boy has several Reserve CC's under his belt. 2 White's Ch/Ir/Am/Sw Abberann Conan an Ch 06/07/08. Well presented dog with good bite, strong foreface with good width of skull, correct ear set, strong neck, deep chest, level topline to a correct set on of tail. Well muscled, in good coat, just preferred the side gait movement of first on the day, Res DCC. 3 White's Abberann Karl. A young dog that has to mature for this class but has lots of promise. Good head and bite with correct ear placement, strong neck leading onto well placed shoulders, deep chest, good topline with correct tail set, good angulations, moved well with drive. JB(2, 1) 1 Hardy's Amhard Ginger Snap. Wheaten bitch with good bite good eye colour with typical young Glen expression, she used her ears, which were the correct size and shape. Good neck and shoulder placement, deep chest, level topline and good tail set, neat feet with correct turn out, nice rear angulations, moved with drive. Res BCC and BP. PGB(2) 1 Sutton's Bailelands Leanbh Orga Interra JW, Jun Ch. Wheaten bitch of 20 months. Nice bitch with good bite, strong jaw, pleasing head and eye, good width to skull, deep chest with plenty of heart room, nice lay of shoulder, good angulations, moved well with good driving action. 2 Hardy's Amhard Ginger Galore. Wheaten bitch with a pretty head, a little longer in muzzle to her little sister, nice dark eye, correct ear set and shape, correct front, good shoulder placement, good topline and tail set, moved well. OB(3) 1 White's Ch/Ir Ch Abberrann Ennya. A wheaten bitch I have admired from her being a youngster, and not disappointed going over her, loads of ring presence. Good bite, expressive eyes, good width of skull, correct ears, well muscled neck leading onto good shoulders, good front, deep chest, good topline, good turn of stifle, well off for bone, very powerful girl which shows in her movement, a rear driving action made her movement look effortless as she floated around the ring. Shown well, only criticism was her coat, I have seen her in a better jacket but it didn't stop her being awarded the BCC and Best Of Breed. 2 Quinn's Ir Ch Abberann Eilish At Kirikee. A correct mouth, nice head piece, appealing dark eyes, nice front and feet, strong neck, good lay of shoulders, deep chest, correct topline, well off for bone, presented in lovely coat and condition, but her movement was very unsettled today. 3 Hardy's Amhard Extra Spice. Good mouth, dark eye, correct front, shoulder and topline, good tail set. Good coat texture. Movement ok. D Harley |
