Scottish Dobermann Club Championship Show
Sunday August 30 2009 The Pivot Centre Moodiesburn

Thank you to the committee of the SDC for their hospitality and to my very efficient steward Wendy for keeping things running smoothly. My thanks also to the exhibitors for an excellent quality entry and for the sporting way in which they accepted my placings. Temperaments were excellent, mouths good, my greatest concern would be size … some youngsters were way too tall and bulky - not at all feminine.

BITCHES:

Veteran Bitch (7,1)

1st Mycroft’s Jowendy’s Enuf Said for Supeta: Stylish B/R 8 year old in super condition and enjoying her day out, showing her socks off! Correct size with lovely outline and clean head, short strong topline, perfect tail set and moved effortlessly with reach and drive. Res CC and BVIS.

2nd Bisland & Pagan’s Trystorm Indignation: Another sound 8 year old B/R bitch of good type with straight front and strong topline. Pleasing head with good planes and attractive expression. Moved with reach and drive and was a close second, failing to winner on croup.

3rd Somerville’s Gaindyke Mattea Von Peaselye.

Minor Puppy Bitch (2,0)

1st Cox & Jerenic’s Tuwos Harmoni with Martonbury NAF TAF; Up to size but feminine B/R youngster, well pigmented. Attractive head with parallel planes. Good length of upper arm and lay of shoulder giving ample forechest. Short sloping topline. Gave the overall impression of a well balanced puppy who should have a bright future.

2nd Mulholland’s Tuwos Gabrielle at Marillium (Imp); B/R youngster who can’t afford to grow on! She has an attractive head with good planes, eye shape and pigment. Angulation is good both ways but she roaches when baited and this spoils her topline. A bit of a roly- poly at the moment - she needs to tighten up all over!

Puppy Bitch (4,0)

1st Evans’ Amazon Kandy Kisses: Square B/R with super outline … showing off an immaculate topline and tailset. Attractive head and expression, with good planes and dark pigment. Good round bone, tight feet and elbows … she moved out well with reach and drive.

2nd King’s Nerak Sweepstake: Bigger B/R than winner but similar remarks apply as she is an attractive typy bitch also. Not as positive behind as the winner.

3rd Mycroft’s Supeta’s Top Totty.

Junior Bitch (5,0)

1st Scott’s Krieger Prima Donna: Well made B/R youngster of good size with an excellent square outline, showing strong topline and good tailset. Correct head planes with adequate stop and dark pigment. Wants to look at her handler so has a tendency to crab at times but otherwise moves with reach and drive.

2nd Cartwright’s Jodaseen Blood Red Wine at Amaltheia; Bigger B/R but sound with a pleasing square outline and good angulation. Parallel head planes and dark eye, tight feet and elbows and moved out well …. just not as stylish as the winner.

3rd Cairns’ Lamarg Bailey

Yearling Bitch (2,0)

1st Burnett, Hall & Mycroft’s Supeta’s Feels Like Heaven at Zuffenhausen:
B/R youngster of lovely size and type. Square outline, good length of upper arm and excellent shoulder placement. Short strong topline and perfect tailset. Moved out well with ample reach and drive. I feel she still has to mature and will watch her progress with interest!

2nd Cairns’ Aritaur Vodkatini: Bigger B/R youngster but of pleasing type with good head planes and dark pigment. Square bodied with a strong topline, she moved steadily but failed to the winner in rear angulation and needs to tighten in front.

Novice Bitch: (5,0)

1st Amazon Kandy Kisses

2nd Tuwos Harmoni with Martonburg NAF TAF

3rd Nerak Sweepstake

Graduate Bitch (7,0)

1st Cox & Chamber’s Martonburgs Star of India: Loved this B/R girl’s head, very appealing expression with good earset, good length of flat skull to muzzle, parallel planes and first class pigment. Presented a pleasing picture. Overall one of the few I would describe today as being in really hard condition. Well angulated both ways which showed in her movement.

2nd Brown’s Knecht Snyzentigh: Bigger B/R but showing similar attributes to winner. Best of short strong toplines and good angulation with tightest of feet. Moved out well.

3rd Pagan’s Trystorm Annastasia:

Post Graduate Bitch (10,0)

1st Evan’s & Irving’s Amazon Sydique: Another typy B/R from this kennel, square in outline and excelling in topline and tailset. Good, straight, well developed front and well turned stifle. Pleasing head and expression, good underjaw, parallel planes and dark eyes. Moved well.

2nd Verrall’s Dink Dink: A finer B/R but very typy with a beautiful head and expression. Strong topline and tailset, good straight front with tight feet and covers the ground well. Slightly longer in loin than winner.

3rd Cranston’s Mountcraig Ain’t Bothered

Limit Bitch (17,2)

1st Taylor & Ryan’s Khazaddum Sealed with a Kiss: B/R girl who grew on me more and more as the class progressed! Lovely outline with superb topline and tailset which she held on the move. Classic head with good stop and parallel planes, well developed front with tight feet … she moved out well with reach and drive.

2nd Layton & Mycroft’s Supeta’s C’est la Vie for Kaistart: B/R similar type to the winner, square and substantial without being overdone in any way. Pleasing profile with strong topline and well set on tail. Good angulation both ways with adequate forechest, tight elbows and straight front.

3rd Cairns’ Lamarg Playgirl.

Open Bitch (15,3)

1st Balshaw’s Ch Janzin’s Jamelia JW ShCM: This B/R girl ticked all the boxes for me! Elegant, stylish, square, super strong sloping topline with tail bang on the end! Well developed straight front with just enough give in her pasterns to accommodate the forceful drive from behind. A head and expression to die for … she just ‘melts’ you! I was delighted to award her the CC and along with my co-judge, BIS.

2nd Mycroft’s Supeta’s Witchqueen JW ShCM; B/R similar in type to the winner and many of her attributes apply … but I preferred the head and front of my CC winner.

3rd Evan’s & Thompson’s Ch Amazon Devil Wears Prada.
