Mr M Smith (Aranel) |
| I would like to thank the officers and committee of the Welsh Kennel Club for the opportunity to judge my breed at this show. It has been a few years since my last appointment and I was shocked at the falling entries and the lack of quality and choices in some of the classes. Although entries may be falling we should never allow the quality to. As custodians of the breed we owe it to breed sound and well constructed cavaliers of a good breed type.

Long well feathered ears that frame his head beautifully. Elegant neck into good laid back shoulders. Pleasing front and rear angulation which creates that well balanced look. He moves true.

Ch Ellemich American Express
What can I say about this male that probably hasn’t already been said. I think to truly appreciate this dog you have to have your hands on him. At nearly five years of age he really is looking the best I think I’ve ever seen him. Beautifully balanced with a pleasing crest of neck which flows into well laid back shoulders. Level top-line and well set tail.well sprung ribs with a good depth to chest. With good and front rear angulation and firm muscled quarters. Masculine head with soft endearing expressive eyes, jet black pigment and halo’s. His presentation is absolutely immaculate. The connection between him and his handler is one of love and devotion. He never stopped showing giving it 100%. Moves well with good rear driving action. Delighted to award him CC & Best of Breed. Later he went on to win the Champion Stakes and Group 4.

Another top draw cavalier of a nice size and compact shape. Attractive head with large dark eyes and rims giving a gentle expression. Well cushioned fore face with gentle tapering to muzzle. Pleasing neck into well placed and laid back shoulders. Level top-line with correct tail-set and carriage. He presents balance when viewed from across the ring. On the move he carries his head high and keeps his top-line. In profile he’s a picture and has good front extension. Just preferred the stronger more muscled rear action of winner. Delighted to award him the RCC. |

Cavallibrook Ezperanza
This Blenheim girl was so sassy and full of spirit which I loved showing that true cavalier temperament. She is small and neat in body with great angulation in front and rear. She has good drive from behind and good reach in front. She is a delight to watch on the move and is expertly handled and moved at the right pace keeping a level top-line at all times. Pretty head with lovely large round eyes which were dark and soft in expression. This was topped off with correct ear set and dense pigment and richly coloured coat. Was delighted to award her Best Puppy Bitch, Best Puppy in Breed and later to see her place 4th in a strong puppy group. One I’m sure with a bright future ahead of her. |

Feminine lighter marked Blenheim of an ideal size. Pretty head with expressive dark eyes which are large and round. Nicely arched neck into a good lay back of shoulder and firm topline. Good parallel rear movement with sufficient drive. Just needs to tighten a little in front. The best is still to come in this girl. She was handled and shown so well by her owner. |

Top draw Blenheim girl who is worthy of her title. She has the most enchanting head with large captivating limpid eyes that draw you in. She is full of breed type and without any exaggeration. Dense pigment and a strong jaw and correct bite. A true well balanced toy spaniel with good substance and bone. When you put your hands on her she is a delight to go over and completed with a firm top-line. Her coat was of a deep chestnut colouring of the correct texture which was silky to the touch. She was presented to perfection. Moved precise when viewed from all directions. Delighted to award her the RCC. On another day I would happily give a CC to. |
