Judges Critique
I would like to start by saying what an honour it is to have been asked to judge this show. My thanks to the committee for inviting me to judge and for making me feel so welcome. Also for inviting some old friends along,who like me no longer exhibit I.Gs.but have had much success in the past, and will always love, and have an interest in this delightful breed. Over a truly delicious lunch, it was wonderful to have a catch up and talk about the ‘old days’ and how much dog showing has changed, (not in all ways for the better ). My thanks also to the exhibitors for entering their dogs, the newer ones probably not having a clue who I am. A special thank you must go to my two Friendly efficient stewards Aiden and Christine Foynes for making everything run smoothly.
I found great variance in type, sometimes in fact I felt I could almost have been judging two or even three different breeds.
Overall, I found soundness, beautiful coats and skin,good mouths (though some teeth could have been cleaner) fine rose ears and correct hare feet. I will always allow a little leeway regarding size, as long as the dog retains elegance,balance and hound type.I will not forgive any hint of coarseness.I personally do not like to see dew claws left on as it not only detracts aesthetically they can also be a problem in a running hound if ripped. Movement although sound, I feel we are in danger of losing the high stepping and free action so distinctive of the breed. My notes on each placed exhibit are brief, but suffice to say my top placings all conform to my interpretation of the K.C. breed standard.
