I would like to take this opportunity to thank the President & Committee of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of The Garden State for inviting me to judge the Regular Classes at their 6th Annual Specialty & Sweepstakes (5th Independent Specialty & Sweepstakes & Obedience Trial). I would like to make special mention of the people that took such good care of my husband and myself. Our hosts, Lynne & Harold Small, and Helen Maddock - what a historian - thank you for a most hospitable time. Our sincere thanks go to the Chairperson, Karen Gunzel, for catering to all our needs, and congratulations on a great show in a great location! Not forgetting all those workers behind the scene that deserved credit, too! My two stewards, Karen & Sue, thank you girls for keeping the ball rolling - and didn't they have fun during the banquet! Also, thanks to Phyllis Farrer for working in with Trenton Kennel Club where I had seven breeds to judge. Thank you for a most memorable evening and thoughtful gift - a silver key ring with a delightful little corgi on one side and our kennel name on the other. Such a perfect gift to cherish along with lots of fond memories.

It was indeed a great pleasure to judge your show and to see both exhibitors and spectators come together at this Specialty to endorse breed type along with the virtues and qualities required in our Breed Standard. I really appreciated the way in which the exhibitors accepted my decisions so gracefully and in a sportsperson like manner. The dogs and bitches were well presented, although one or two were not quite as clean as they should have been. Generally, the depth of quality in the bitches was a cut above that of the dogs. Heads were a little mixed although generally the back skulls, ear carriage, & eye colour/shape were good. Feet overall were very good. Movement varied in both sexes and I felt that the hindquarter movement was superior to the fronts. As I mentioned at the banquet, two areas need attention: the first being the shortness of the lay back of shoulders; and second, untypical heads with incorrect stops, very narrow forefaces and lack of underjaw. There was a lot of variation in size and in the some dog classes I had a difficult time finding attributes. My Best of Breed class was full of quality and so many goods ones had to go without a placement.

4. CARTERHALL KOMODO DRAGON (Ch. Hum'nbird Valedictorian x Ninacorte April Love) Breeders/Owners: Joseph & Dora Carter. This 10 ½ mths old young R/W dog had the best head in this class. His front let him down on the move and did not balance with his strong hind quarters. Presented & handled well.

Angulations matched but a slightly upright fore & after displaying a bouncier movement. Quite a nice head piece and he was presented in good condition.

This R/W dog was of a similar type to 2 but not quite as heavy or mature. Pleasing head & eye. Correct feet and balanced fore & aft. Hindquarter action could have been more positive. A little unsettled today.
4. CINONNIE REGULUS (Ninacorte Star Caster x Cinonnie Sweet Charity) Breeder: Mrs. Lillian Beazley. Owners: Nancy Pearl & Susan Strickland & Shirley Hobbs. Honest tri colour dog with a nice headpiece. Although he was nicely balanced, fore & aft angulations could have been better. Would have preferred a stronger topline. Showed well for a place in this class.

I found so much more quality and breed type throughout the bitch classes and in some classes there were bitches that went unplaced due to various reasons, but I am sure these lovely ladies will have their day in the not too distant future.

PUPPY 6 -9 MONTHS, BITCHES (13 exhibited)

3. ELFWISH GINGER SNAP (Ch. Tallyrand Archangel Michael x Ch. Elfwish Gingerbread Lady) Breeders/Owners: Donna J. Francis & Sandra Wolfskill. This young R/W bitch has a very good frame but just needs time to grow into it. Well up to size with good length of neck. Nice head proportions. Eye colour could be a shade darker. A little apprehensive on the day but deserved a place in this class.
4. NEBRIOWA PATIENCE (Ch. Larchmont's Dream Dust x Ch. Nebriowa Tinseltown) Breeder/Owner: Thomas Mathiesen. Another good size R/W bitch with clean head and outline. Correct balance of front & hindquarter angulations. She would have been placed higher had she not been quite so unsettled.

Her head proportions were very correct from back skull, level planes, dark oval eyes. Her front assembly was set well back equaling her hind quarters. Neat feet and ample bone. I felt she was a fraction long in body to height and there was a slight wave in her coat. Showed and handled to perfection and deserved the RESERVE WINNERS BITCH.
3. GREENFOREST'S SWEET GHERKIN (Ch. Hum'nbird Valedictorian x Greenforest's Gideon) Breeder/Owner: August Ludwig. Black-headed tri bitch of good quality. Show well with good head proportions.

It was a privilege to judge these grand ladies.

BEST OF BREED (11 exhibited)

3. SANDFOX DUST IN THE WIND (Ch. Belroyd Dotteral x Ch. Perivale Whispering Wind) Breeders/Owners: Vicki Sandage & Feli Noeller. Light red & white with lovely bone, outline and coat. Attractive head. Would prefer less round foot and the two above had stronger side gait today.
4. XIII MAPLES ORION (Ch. XIII Maples Stellar Idea x Warrenhouse Valentina) Breeder: Ellen Childs. Owners: Ellen C. Childs & Joanne Scott. Lightly sabled red & white that is rangy at the moment and not in his best coat, but the promise is there with time. Nice length of neck and body with a lovely face and moving well.

A lovely young male in all regards. He is masculine, yet elegant, with good length of neck and body, correct bone right down into oval feet, attractive head with nice pigment, and coat is in lovely gleaming condition. Topline never wavered and today he is totally clean and correct coming and going and has a free, easy beautiful side gait. BEST IN SWEEPSTAKES

4. SUNLINE HACKLE SPINNER (Sunline August Dun x Sunline Red Ant) Breeders/Owners: Ann & Warren Phillips. A dog with good substance and outline, with dark eye. Moving too close in front today and I prefer tighter feet and less pronounced brow.

12-18 MONTHS, DOGS (9 exhibited)

1. SANDYSHIRE WINDAWAY (Ch. Sandyshire's The Phantom x Bransuzi Sandyshire Seaspray) Breeder: Patricia L. Sandy-Smith. Owners: Adrienne K. Saffell & Pat Sandy-Smith. An overall really nice puppy. Correct, balanced outline, nice neck and topline, correct feet and dark eyes in a pleasing head. He moves clean, free and smooth all three ways.

2. FAERIETALE CURIG BUTTERCUP (Ch. Cinonnie Rigel x Faerietale Amazing Grace) Breeders: Susan Neave & Barbara duPree. Owners: Nancy Oehlhof & Pam Hudson. Red & White…tough decision against #1. Melting head type and correct outline. Also with good bone, plushy coat, short hocks, rich pigment and elegance to burn. Lazy on the move and appeared to be sulking, but I loved her!
3. PINEMEADE TOO SPICEY (Ch. Summithill Gingerbread Man x Ch. Pinemeade Thyme At Marnac) Breeder/Owner: Terry A. Hansen. Different type & style than the above. Nice length of neck and body and was one of the best side gaiting exhibits in my entire entry. Beautiful coat and dark eye. Narrow front movement and I hope she's just about finished growing. Wish ear tips were rounder in an otherwise very pretty head.

3. CARTERHALL KALEIDOSCOPE (Ch. Hum'nbird Valedictorian x Ninacorte April Love) Breeders/Owners: Joseph & Dora Carter. This bitch has elegance and style. Stunning head type, correct balanced outline, nice bone and plushy coat. If this bitch was good in front she would be very hard to beat. Will hope she tightens and straightens with maturity as I thought she was spectacular in all other ways.
4. FOXTALE'S TOURMALINE (Cinonnie Regulus x Foxtale Reaching For A Star) Breeder/Owner: Virginia C. Fitzgerald. Pretty outline and head on this nice moving RH tricolor. A bit more neck would finish the picture.
