AIREDALE TERRIER

JD(2)

1 CC and BOB, Gregg's Bambusa Most Noble. A pleasure to put my hands on this male. Hard, fit, and an Airedale that can cover the ground easily and well on the move. Topped with a lengthy head, clean cheeks, ears set well just to the side, but slightly above skull level. Powerful "iron bar legs" and tight, thick feet. A really handsome and impressive dog.

2 Toulson's Toulsyork Delfy Dexter. Handy and also appealed for head and expression. His back is just a little on the long sde, well ribbed and true moving, level back, tail spot on, just is that bit long for me.

PGD(1)

1 Moore's Nedella Sparks In The Park At Arngask. Smelling the floor and ring, which was not his fault, as I had just had an in season bitch in a previous breed. Strong with lovely quarters, low hocks and good width across the quarters. Rather too straight in shoulders and needs some forechest, hard jacket.

LD (2, 1)

1 Hacker &Jenkins' Sherifs Midnight Rambler. Temperament could be a little friendlier but acceptable. Strong neck, a little upright in shoulders, deep enough, topline could be firmer, tail set ok, excellent coat quality, short, strong loin, fair head, reasonable mover in rear, throws his front about.

OD(3)

1 and Res CC, Averis &Kantijevskaja's Int Ch Katherina's Land Quite So (ATC AM00709Est). A little shortcoated and out of coat, liked his length of head and correct head planes, well set in eyes, fair front and true coming towards, short, hard back and excellent quarters, strong and well muscled, nicely set on tail.

2 Gregg's Bambusa Nagarrick. Sturdy and hard, throws his front around moving and although better ribbed than above and had a straighter tail, hiss front let him down. Excellent quarters, immaculate coat and presentation and lovely size and proportions.

3 Morris' Nedella A Kind Of Magic.

JB(3)

1 and CC, Gregg's Bambusa Dream Model. Lovely bitch, full of herself which was so typical of the best! Lengthy head, relatively small eyes set well, ears could be carried a little closer to skull, excellent strong well rounded neck, fair front and true coming towards, nicely ribbed and short, firm topline, very powerful rear and harsh coat.

2 Callon &Callon-Winn's Russtam Star Princess. Over the top temperament and so very full of life. Promising. A good size and proportions, fair front and good depth of brisket. At the moment looks overdone in rear angulation and tends to leave them behind on the move

3 Toulson's Toulsyork Effulgent.

PGB(2, 1)

1 Clarke's Muliebrity Crowning Glory ShCM. She was difficult moving and was throwing her legs about in front. I got a glimpse of a good trot in profile, well made rear, excellent ribbing and level back, rather straight in shoulder and lacks any slope to upper arm. If she gets herself together, she could do well.

LB(2, 1)

1 Ablard's Russtam Star Attraction. Ideal size for a bitch and she is very feminine, sound moving and covers the ground in profile gait, excellent coat texture, good head but eyes a little too big, dark pigment, short coupled, enough rear angulation. I thought she lacked bone though.

OB(4, 1)

1 Miller's Lakeaire Lily The Pink ShCM. Excellent head and clean cheeks, well set in eyes and strong jaws, good neck, ok in front, well boned legs and tight small feet, deep enough and firm in back, tail set on ok, she does need a bit more rear angulation but is true going away, excellent coat and condition all through. A pity her handler hasn't got the ring manners of his charge!

2 Morris' Nedella Victoriana. Ears a bit wayward and legs too high in front coming towards, deep chest, ribbing carried well back, better rear angulation than winner. Also beautifully put down and strong, lovely tail set and carriage.

3 Hacker &Jenkins' Sherifs Winter Dawn.
