SOFT COATED WHEATEN THREE COUNTIES 24 Judge: Miss A Bradley My thanks to the most helpful steward who was super efficient working without an assistant. Also to the exhibitors for their support. Size remains varied and where possible followed the standard for a medium sized compact Terrier. Character throughout was excellent but noticed eye colour needs consideration with hazel eyes evident rather than the desired dark hazel. PD 1. 1 Springford’s Keeveasdream Purple Viking Promising at 8mths Pleasing head of good proportion skull flat, defined stop good strength of muzzle dark hazel eyes well placed ears. Moderate length of neck has strong level back body developing nicely rear quarters well angulated giving good drive on the move.Tail well set and carried. BP JD 1. Satherley, Satherly & Winter’s Lakkas Yankee Sweet Silkcroft (imp Swe) Nice size and balance good length of head flat skull of medium width decent strength of muzzle. Has fair length of neck to well laid shoulders straight well boned forelegs, fair spring of rib needs a little more time for body development Is attractive on the move and in profile showing elegant head carriage. 2. Amel-Azizpour ‘s Crofftly Softly Hay Jude Really nice head and expression well placed medium sized ears good strength of foreface. Moderate length of neck good body proportions but another needing time for development. Rear movement showing drive and purpose but was a little loose coming towards. ND 1. Brooks Loofahsa King of the Pippins Nice type dog of character, has balanced head well paced ears has good strength of muzzle. Powerful body ample depth well ribbed. Although moved with purpose needs to tighten up coming and going. 2.

Has moderate length of neck deep chest well ribbed level back ample bone pleasing coat colour. OD 1. 1 Satherleys’ Am/Can Ch Keepsakes No Jacket Required This dog presents a picture of ideal balance and size. Decent length of head flat skull of medium width defined stop clean cheeks pleasing foreface well made up. Ears well placed eyes of medium size dark hazel. Neck is strong and muscular and whilst runs nicely to shoulder a fraction more length would be to advantage. Has good depth of chest and is moderately wide, body is compact back level ribs well sprung. Has well muscled rear quarters hocks well let down giving powerful drive holds an excellent profile on the go round. Presented in just enough coat soft and silky clear wheaten colour. CC, BOB. 2. Clarke’s Flaxela Illuminati One I have admired as a puppy and Junior is so full of breed type but today just not settled. Is a slightly larger dog than above but has everything in proportion. Great expression with well placed ears, eyes well set under strong bone. Has moderate length of neck to well angulated shoulders legs straight and well boned. Body is strong back level ribs well sprung chest deep, rear quarters well muscled tail set good. Presented in abundant but tidy coat. 3 Hookway & Mason, Denzilly Golden Compass. VD 1.

Excellent head proportions correct ears, moderate length of neck strong well made body ribs well sprung good depth of chest. Rear quarters well angulated giving good drive.

Sound on the move. JB 1. Dowdy’s Denzilly Walking the Witch and 2 Ronan’s Denzilly Poppet Magic two sisters the main difference 1st has a slightly longer head neck and body whereas 2nd is more compact. Both had nice coats and sound on the move, on the day 1st had more confidence. PGB 1. Hughlocks Keevasdream Ballerina blue A very nice type of correct size, pleasing head well placed dark hazel eye.

Satherley’s Ch Silkcroft Never Miss a B eat Have admired on previous occasions, perhaps big enough but her quality and breed type can not be denied. Love her head and expression has strength without coarseness excellent bite. Her moderate length of neck runs cleanly to well laid shoulders. Has powerful body level back deep chest of correct width, ribs well sprung. Rear quarters show good angulation with hocks well let down allowing for drive in movement going away could be a touch neater coming towards.
