Mrs R Rowley (Choya) |
| Firstly, I would like to thank the officers and committee of the Cavalier club for the opportunity to judge the males at this prestigious show. I always find it privilege to judge a breed club show and I thoroughly enjoyed my day. My thanks to my husband who stewarded for me and kept the ring moving in a professional and timely manner. I was looking for a toy spaniel who fitted the kennel club breed standard and I was lucky enough to find something that fulfilled this in every class. On the downside, I was dismayed at the condition of some of the dogs, very dirty teeth, which will give way to premature tooth losses. Dogs that looked like a good groom and bath would have made a lot of difference, thankfully this was the minority. I find the habit of shovelling food into your dog’s mouth as the judge is trying to go over them very disconcerting, discreet baiting I can understand but there were times when it was almost impossible to view the dogs expression and head features on the table past a handful of treats. |

Loved this Blenheim of 10 months beautiful head with large round dark eyes given the softest expression, as would be expected still needs fill under the eyes but absolutely right for age. Wonderful well broken silky coat coming in nicely. Moved straight and true both front and rear, an exciting prospect. My Best Puppy Dog and in agreement with my co judge Best Puppy in Show. I foresee a bright future. BPD, BP |

Blenheim who did nothing to help himself, really gave his handler a hard time. Such a shame as he is a very promising boy with a good head and excellent eyes and if he gets his act together he could do well, just not his day. |

Richly coloured Blenheim, shown in wonderful coat and condition. Not a flashy boy and has to be handled to be appreciated. He caught my eye from every direction and once on the table, I knew why. He has a glorious head with good eyes and ear placement good neck with well laid shoulders, level top line with good straight front and well angulated rear. Moved true in all directions and in my final lineup he continued to catch my eye and never seemed to put a foot wrong could not deny him the RCC. |

Such a successful and well known Blenheim I feel that no accolade I could give him will not already have been given. The rapport and love between him and his handler is just amazing to see. On another day the results will swap around of that I have no doubt. |

Mrs P Ayres (Brookhaven – USA) |
I would like to thank the Cavaliers King Charles Spaniel Club, UK for inviting me to judge their wonderful championship show in Staffordshire County. I have not visited the UK since COVID so many new dogs and so many new faces as well as some familiar ones. Everything ran very smoothly due to the efficiency of Show committee – Lucy Koster-Tindall and Elane Berwick. The details were perfect – Nothing left undone – Well Done Girls!
I would also like to thank the exhibitors for showing their lovely dogs. I was very pleased with the entry. I thought the quality overall was excellent. The majority of the dogs were so well presented and in great condition. One thing that comes to mind is the lovely eyes which are the window to the sole.
