HWVA Open Show 2018 – critiques

Minor Puppy Dog (1, 0abs)

1st Newman Morganna Zatar

Well grown puppy with a pleasing head and eye, could be cleaner through the neck.  He has a well angulated front, just right for bone and has excellent feet. Deep enough in body, could carry a little more weight. Strong quarters, well muscled, hocks well let down.  Excellent tail set and carriage.  Positive mover for one so young.  Coat still needing some time to develop. BPD

Puppy Dog (1, 0abs)

1st Newman Morganna Zatar

As previous class.

Junior Dog (4, 0abs)

1st Spillane Belatarr Jupiter

Up to size dog who has excellent bone, legs and feet.  Liked his head and expression, super furnishings.  Clean though the neck, well angulated front,  strong in topline, tail well set and carried.  Longer in loin than ideal.  Excellent coat.  Move out freely in all directions.

2nd Thomas Hookster Tompa at Odinsmoke

Heavier dog all though, deeper in head and needs more furnishings but he has eyes of good shape and colour. Well made all through and with plenty of substance. Well angulated all though.  An excellent moving dog, needs his coat to complete the picture.

Graduate Dog (4, 0abs)

1st Gray & Riley Fassfields Silver Lining

Best for overall balance in this class, pleasing expression, maybe a touch long in foreface.  Enough bone, straight legs and excellent feet. Strong level topline, steep in croup and rather gets his tail up especially when moving.  Moves straight and true and looks positive going around in profile.  He has a pleasing coat texture and was well presented.

2nd Belassie-Page Bardantop Treacle Tart

More moderate dog than 1, but retaining balance, pleasing head but could be better furnished.  Firm in topline, tailset and carriage not his fortune. Stands on well boned legs and he has good feet. Moved ok.

Post Graduate Dog (4, 1abs)

1st Gray & Riley Fassfields Silver Lining

As previous class

2nd Smith Indriel Faramir

A dog of the type which appeals to me, I like his expression, a little heavy in back skull.  Good forehand, excellent bone and feet. Carrying far too much weight which affected his topline and impacted on the move.  He has an excellent coat of good texture but it could do with a bit more attention.

Limit dog (4, 1abs)

Difficult decision between two quality dogs.

1st Moss Ewtor Nobody Does it Better

Medium sized dog with a striking outline, typical in head, pleasing expression.  Strong in neck, shoulders well laid, well boned legs and good feet.  Strong level topline, tail well set and carried.  Excellent moving fore and aft as well as in profile.

2nd Collier Belatarr North by Northwest

Another quality dog I have judged before more than once, stronger in head than I Prefer.  Up to size but very well constructed with excellent angulation front and rear. Presented in excellent coat and muscletone, a little restricted in the confined ring and not moving to his best advantage.

Open Dog (6, 0abs)

Great class with some excellent dogs.

1st Upton Sh Ch Tragus Fox Appeal

Quality dog who is typy and well balanced, masculine in head but not overdone, such a pleasing expression.  Strong neck, pleasing front, excellent bone, straight forelegs, elbows set close to body, and the best of feet. Well developed body, well ribbed back, strong through the loin and his topline never falters standing or moving.  Tail well set and carried.  Strong, wide and well muscled quarters.  Moved positively fore and aft and in profile.  In excellent coat of ideal texture. BD & BIS

2nd Newman Sh Ch Zoldmali Szeles Morganna (imp) JW

Another quality male of similar size to 1 though slightly longer cast and needing a little more width through his loin.  His head is of pleasing balance, eye could perhaps be fractionally darker in colour. Stands on excellent legs, straight and well boned with well padded feet. Excellent topline, super coat of pleasing texture.  Comes alive moving, particularly in profile.  RBD

Veteran Dog – No entry

 

Minor Puppy Bitch (2, 0abs)

1st Newman Morganna Anisette

Quality puppy with an excellent outline, perfectly balanced in her angulation.  Pleasing head, well furnished, like her expression.  Strong and clean through the neck, excellent front, bone and feet, good body depth, excellent topline, well ribbed and strong though the loin.  Excellent rear angulation and tail well set and carried.  Coat of ideal texture, just needs to grow, BPIS.

2nd Belassie Page Bardantop Treacle Tart

Tall upstanding bitch who is more moderate in her angulation than 1 however it is balanced.  Pleasing head, eyes still needing to darken a little. Clean through the neck, firm in body, strong level topline which she retained moving. Strong quarters well muscled which she used on the move.  Coat coming through and of good texture, just needs a bit more time to come together.

Puppy Bitch (2, 1abs) 

1st Newman Morganna Anisette

As previous class

Junior Bitch (4, 2abs)

1st Aldridge Gwaithmaes Aoife

Medium sized bitch of correct type, pleasing overall balance, liked her head shape although it could be a little stronger.  Enough bone, good legs and excellent feet. Strong neck, pleasing topline, a little steep in croup.  Shown in excellent muscletone, she drove off strong short hocks.  Pleasing coat for texture.

2nd Bendikas Holman Electra

Up to size bitch of pleasing type, holds a great outline standing and moving. Stands on the best of legs and feet, coat of excellent texture.  A real shame she was  not wanting to be handled, will have better days.

Graduate Bitch (2, 2abs)

Post Graduate Bitch (4, 3abs)

1st Upton Tragus Honey Bee

Adolescent bitch  who still needs a bit more time, undoubtedly feminine, excellent eye shape and colour and an intelligent expression. Strong neck, straight forelegs, could be firmer in pasterns and feet.  Body developing well, coat also developing well, firm in topline, carries tail a little high.  Moved ok once she settled.

Limit Bitch (4, 1abs)

1st Moss Electra Atlantis at Ewtor

Shade larger size bitch with an appealing outline, excellent head of good balance, intelligent expression.  Straight forelegs, good bone and well padded feet.  Enough depth to her body, firm in topline, tail well set and carried.  Well angulated rear, excellent muscletone.  Positive mover, particularly free in profile.  Coat recently stripped and needing time to regrow.

2nd Bendikas Holman Wirestone from Morganna

Bitch of pleasing colour, strong head, strong through the neck, shoulders well placed, pleasing bone, ok feet.  Body just deep enough, ribbed quite well back, holds a level topline standing and moving although steep in croup and tail is carried high.  Moved straight and true.

Open Bitch (2, 0abs)

Two quality bitches.

1st Collier Sh Ch Belatarr Mahalia Jackson SH Cm

Upstanding Bitch of excellent type, like her head, pleasing eye colour and shape, good furnishings, strong neck, excellent front, straight forelegs, bone and feet.  Strong firm topline, well developed ribs, good depth of chest.  A little long in loin perhaps, tail well set and carried.  Strong and well muscled quarters, well angulated rear.  Excellent coat of pleasing texture.  Moved out freely in all directions.  BB & RBIS

2nd Newman Sh Ch Morganna Star Anise JW SH CM

Another quality bitch I have admired from ringside, pleasing head, like her expression, eyes of pleasing shape and colour.  Strong neck, excellent forehand, shoulders well placed, the best of legs and feet.  Correct for depth of chest although tending to lose her topline whilst stood.  Strong quarters, well muscled, hocks well let down, free moving in all directions.  Not in her best coat here. RBB

Veteran Bitch (2, 1abs)

1st Kemillix Sparta of Eurotas at Goldpaw

12 1/2 year old bitch belying her age, pleasing head shape, intelligent expression.  strong neck, straight well boned forelegs and retaining good feet.  Body deep enough, firm in topline, well muscled quarters.  Her coat was of pleasing texture and she moved freely in all directions. BVIS

Special Awards

Special Award Junior Dog or Bitch

  1. Gwaithmaes Aoife. Just a year old and standing alone but she has breed type with her pretty and balanced head and excellent wire coat. She is a little round in croup and could have a tad more bend of stifle but she uses her quarters well on the move.

Special Award Post Graduate Dog or Bitch

  1. Tragus Honey Bee. Typey, well balanced girl with a lovely outline and well set tail, good depth to chest and well ribbed. Pretty head of good proportions, moderate stop and an intelligent expression. Arched neck, good shoulders and moderate hindquarters. Well-presented coat of good texture. Slightly unsettled at the start of the class, but soon got her act together. Liked her very much. 2. Fassfields Silver Lining. A lovely bitch with a decent front and good bone and feet but she has a little too much stop for my preference. She is sound throughout and moves well. 3.Twelveoaks Walnut

Special Award Open Dog or Bitch

  1. Sh Ch Tragus Fox Appeal. Extremely typical, robust dog that I have done well for before. Typey well furnished head with well placed ears and moderate stop, straight front, well laid shoulder & return of upper arm, correct rib, ample depth, and a strong well muscled loin. Great croup and tail set. Put down in lovely condition as always from this kennel; with his harsh jacket he couldn’t be ignored! I was delighted to have the opportunity to judge him here again today and although he was pushed very hard by 2nd place, his attitude and presence won him 1st again today.
  2. Sh Ch Belatarr Mahalia Jackson Sh.CM. She is beautiful! She has wonderful balance, a beautiful head with moderate stop, well set ears and very good furnishings. Her crested neck sets well in good shoulders, firm topline, good tail set and croup. She is robust and moderate all through with nothing exaggerated or out of place. To top it all off she has a great coat of good colour and texture. I was absolutely delighted to see her here again today! Thank you for bringing her. 3.Belatarr North By Northwest Sh.CM
