Australian Terrier Club of GB
Championship Show, Shareshill, 30th July 2017

MPD (1)
1.Ferris & Russell’s Wyefean Percival. Outgoing youngster of 8 months with nice overall type and balance, head coming on well, neat ears, good length of body, coat in good condition for age, moved with confidence.

PD (1)
1 Taylor’s Wilfnbell Barneys’s Blue. One I have judged before and previously thought very highly of, and no reason to change my mind today. Very well balanced and demanding attention, nice head proportions, clean front, well bodied with good tail set, moved out well. BP.

LD (3)
1. Wilmett’s Wilfnbell Midnight Cowboy. Red of very nice type, liked head and expression, used ears well, well constructed body with well sprung ribs, strong hindquarters produced good parallel rear movement. Res DCC.

2. Skelton’s Spitewinter Ooh Ah Henry. Not the head of 1, but well made body although coat not at its best today.

3. Bevan & Kyte’s Millvalley Blue Nijinsky.

OD (2)

1. McCourt, Eardley & O’Reilly’s Ch Silhill Red Crackle. Quality dog of nice size, shape and balance and when putting it all in demanded to be recognised and ultimately rewarded, looked very smart both in profile and on the move, best of heads with long flat skull, well place ears, small eye and correct bite, super neck and shoulders, good bodied and in excellent coat, moved with purpose. Dog CC and BIS.

2. McCourt, Eardley & O’Reilly’s Ch Silhill Barney Rubble. Another fine example of the breed from this Kennel but appeared not to be putting it all in today, in good coat.

VD (1)

1. Eardley’s Ch Silhill Red Rock at Sherex. 11.1/2 year old dog whom I have previously awarded Group 1 at Championship Show, and he still carries that air of arrogance and belief although showing minor signs of age in coat and carrying that bit too much weight, held himself well on the move with level topline and tail bang on. Best Veteran. 

Spec O

Untrimmed D/B.

1 . Eardley’s Ch Silhill Red Rock at Sherex.   

MPB (1)

1. Jones’ Wyeafon Miranda Frost. Attractive young lady of 8 months, liked attitude, confidence and temperament, head developing nicely with well set ears and good bite, nice body proportions, not always helping herself on the move or when standing. BB Puppy. PB (2) 1. Jones’ W Miranda Frost. Repeat.

2. Freer, Tyrell and Foskett’s Wilfnbell Miss Blueberry.Overall appearance improved when this young lady decided to show herself off to advantage, coat not at it’s best today.

LB (3.1)

1. Whitehouse’s Silhill Nuts in May. Very close decision and difficult to split these two good examples of the breed, although this young lady did not always help her handler and show off her merits, I was pleased with the overall balance, feminine appearance, good bite, small dark eye, small well carried ears giving good expression, strong neck with nice length of body, moved true. Res BCC.

2. Freer, Tyrell & Foskett’s Wilfnbell Red G’day Sheela. Most difficult class of the day for me and as stated very hard to choose, but just preferred head and balance of 1, good neck and shoulders, in very good coat, moved well.

OB (4.1)

1. Freer, Tyrell & Foskett’s Ch Silhill Stelata. Eye catching lady who was handled to make the most of her virtues, and many a virtue she possesses, really liked head and expression, clean cut front, well bodied, presenting a very appealing picture both on the table and on the floor, coat in super order, moved true and with ease.
BCC and Res BIS

2. Jones’ Wilfnbell Girl on Fire via Wyeafon. Difficult to split 2 and 3 in this class for me, nice overall type nice head and positive mover.

3. McCourt’s Silhill The Sequel.
