Judges Notes for Scottish Toy Dog Society Open
Show
October 7th
at Bonnybridge Community Centre
Cavalier King Charles Spaniels
A very well-organised
show in a good venue, many thanks for a great entry. I was privileged to have
some lovely dogs come out for the show, and of course it was wonderful for me
to be judging back in Scotland. It was
gratifying to see a couple of happy and healthy veterans also turning out,
thanks to all for coming.

1.Mrs
Deamers Bankshill Sweet William, br
owner 17/03/12 BL D, his name sums him up, this was a
charming quality puppy, still immature but with good proportions, wonderful
rich ruby red and well broken markings, nice pigment and expression. He moved
well and showed good body, very sound and well balanced, even though he still
has a bit to learn on the show front, I liked his type.

Mrs
McMurray’s Ellemich Stralis at Merryoth, br Chapman 13/01/12 BL D Another quality dog but would

but not happy in the ring today.

1.Mr James Finlay’s
Ellemich Joe Malone at Marisk br Chapman 11/09/11 BL D What a handsome boy.
This is a beautiful dog, wonderfully proportioned, lovely strong head and
shoulder, great bone. Lovely coat, good colour and well-broken markings. Moves well, with wonderful top line, his tail
verging on proud but could not detract from an extremely well-put together dog,
amazingly mature for his age. BOB and very happily BIS.
