MINIATURE WIRE HAIRED

Enjoyed judging this breed, they seem to put all in on the move, lovely characters & superb temperaments.

MPD (3) 1 Wilberg’s Kanix Oscar, the first class & what a start, a star in the making, super head & eye, great neck & front, well developed keel for a youngster, lovely topline, moved steady, great prospect for the future. BP; 2 Hassall & McLeod’s Sidelock Formula One, another smart boy, lovely head, nice shaped eye, good neck & front, moved well; 3 Williams’ Stockcroft Red Rambler. PD (2) 1 Howell’s Fallowmill Je Ronnie Mo, very smart youngster, loved his head & expression, good neck & front, level topline, very nice hindquarters, moved very well; 2 Blackburn’s Stargang Red October, needs to settle, has all the right things in the right places, sound mover. JD (2) 1 MacDonald’s Bothlyn Black Magic at Holtrand, very good hound, lovely head, good neck & front, nice feet, level topline, excellent hindquarters, moved well; 2 Kugow & Holt’s Waldmeister Henry, lovely type, good head & dark eye, nice neck & front, excellent coat, moved very well. PGD (5,2a) 1 Russell’s Russteck Fillibeg, just loved this boy, super head, darkest of eye of perfect shape, good length of neck, in excellent shoulders, in tip top condition, moved with aplomb, overall shape & type won him RCC; 2 B Black Magic at H; 3 MacDonald’s Varrich Ben Lui. LD (2) 1 Hadden’s Wellbury Nijinsky, shaded red, lovely head, good neck & shoulder, level back, very good coat, excellent hindquarters, moved well; 2 McElrath’s Bothlyn Timemaster at Sharplaw, rather smart, will always be in the cards but not at his best here. OD (4) 1 Blackburn’s Stargang Malachite, super star, superb head, good length of neck set in perfect shoulders, excellent keel, good front & feet, lovely depth of chest, firm topline, excellent hindquarters, in tip top condition, moves with a certain air about him. CC & BOB; 2 V Ben Lui, very smart boy, a hound who will always be thereabouts; 3 Kugow & Holt’s Waldmeister Jackson.

MPB (2) 1 Allan & Dick’s Auachans Danger Mouse, b/t, lovely shape, good head & eye, nice neck & front, very good coat, moved very well; 2 Howell’s Fallowmill Poc A Hantis, beautiful head & eye, good neck & shoulder, level topline, moved OK, looked a baby. PB (1) 1 Dunn’s Cairos Slack Alice, my notes say ‘sweet’, lovely head. Just needs to mature, I’m sure in 6 months she will be in the winner’s enclosure again. Moved very well. JB (8) 1 Fulton’s Bothlyn Penny Black, b/t, the first thing that strikes you about this very attractive young lady is her superb outline & coat condition, head of top quality, dark eye, very proud mover, it won’t be long before she starts to collect CCs; 2 Russell’s Russteck Ophelia, lovely hound, unlucky to meet 1 in such sparkling order. Of top quality, super head, neck & front, loved her elegant movement; 3 Feetham’s Russteck Melody at Kimbleholme. PGB (7,1) 1 Howell’s Fallowmill Treache Tart, have placed this girl highly before, sired by a dog I admire. Super head & expression, good neck & shoulder, in lovely condition, moved with style, only young to be in this class; 2 Williams & Rose’s Tythe Gwenno, in her best coat, loved her head, good neck & shoulder, strong body, moved very well; 3 Presnail’s Taree Jiggalong. LB (8,1) 1 Wilberg’s Kanix Mary, what a super head this hound has, her expression is what I look for in a Wire, elegant neck, correct keel & shoulders, great front & feet, good depth of brisket, firm topline, strong quarters, boy can she move. CC; 2 Allan & Dick’s Auchans Mini The Minx, very smart hound, lovely head, darkest of eyes, good neck, very good front & topline, in tip top condition, moved very well; 3 Blackburn-Bennett’s Stargang Kasino Kween. OB (3) 1 Kugow & Holt’s Waldmeister Mischka, loved her overall type & balance, super head, great front & feet, very good topline, condition was first class, moved with style, pushed Mary very close, two beautiful hounds. RCC; 2 Wilberg’s Kanix Kalinka, slightly bigger type, good head & eye shape, nice front & keel, good strong back, lovely hindquarters, moved well; 3 Holgate’s Drakesleat Gaysha Girl at Nadavin.
