SOFT COATED WHEATEN SOUTHERN COUNTIES 11 Judge(s) PAULA HEIKKINEN-LEHKONEN [FINLAND] DCC KINAELAN FINLANDIA FINNIAN (MRS B R HANNA) Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers The overall quality was very mixed. There were only a few dogs with really correct coats, many had dull, woolly or harsh coats. The correct Irish coat is shiny & wavy, neither too abundant nor off-standing. Mostly the size was OK, but some too short & with poor front & rear angulation & thus no drive in the movement. These are very common faults in the breed all over the world. Some heavy & short heads but also nice long heads with dark eyes & good pigmentation. PD (3) 1 Fallon’s Janeyjimjams Jenson, well developed, moving very well, good head & pigmentation; 2 Morris’ Canicula Dylan Thomas, elegant dog, beautiful coat. Head planes not quite parallel, could have more angulation behind; 3 Mapson’s Zaraslake Sirocco. JD (3) 1 Hanna’s Kinaelan Finlandia Finnian, strong masculine dog, well developed, well constructed, moves very well, correct type of coat. Eyes could be darker. CC; 2 Maleary’s Saffini Teenage Sensation, still immature & leggy, needs to body up, needs to change his coat, tail could be higher set. PGD (5) 1 Carter’s Chloeanco Hunni Twirls, well constructed, beautiful coat, moves very well, good shape of head, good pigmentation; 2 Simpson’s Loofahsa Bumble Bee; 3 Walklin’s Kellynack Zoom Zoom. LD (5) 1 Kenneally’s Loofahsa Hakuna Matata, well balanced, good head, moves very well, decent coat. RCC; 2 Boulton’s Dayshaun Sparkler for Diddidumkins, a shade longer cast. Good topline, well angulated, good head. Coat could be silkier in texture; 3 Carter’s Chloeanco Hunni Dream. OD (9) 1 Clarke’s Loofahsa Scaramouche, well balanced, moves well, good head, well angulated, decent coat; 2 Mackenzie’s Linatina Truly Ruly, good size, good shape of head, good topline, well angulated & moves well, decent coat; 3 Dunhill’s Ch Fantasa Blonde Kaos.

BP; 2 Ford & McMurray’s Kanjuley Obi The Best, correct Irish coat, short, compact body but in general still very immature, ears a little airy, very promising but needs time; 3 Rogers’ Kizzahla Dreamsicle. JB (8) 1 Hanna’s Kinaelan Finlandia Finnial, correct coat type, well constructed & well balanced, compact & muscular, excellent behind.
