Bitch Judge: Mr Geoff Duffield

My very grateful thanks to the committee of the South West Dobermann
Club for their kind invitation to judge bitches at their 30th Championship
Show. The hospitality couldn’t have been better, secretary Yvonne
Bevans should be well proud of procedures.

Grateful thanks also to Martin Thompson and Jane Lewis for their very
efficient stewarding.

Lovely entry of 52 top quality bitches (10 absent), notably in Limit and
Open. Presentation throughout was excellent, temperament exemplary,
only heard one grumble, and that wasn’t aggressive. I also really
appreciated the good sportsmanship, it boosts your confidence when
you hear appreciation after every class.

It was satisfying to be told afterwards that my Veteran winner, who
went BVIS, was the mother of the RCC & RBIS bitch who in turn was the
dam of my Best Puppy, litter sister to the BPIS.

L (11,1)
This was a pleasing class to judge but differing types. However, quality
throughout.

1 Wilkes’ Gylemuir Midnight Magic for Lynfryds, have judged
this four year old before when awarding her BB at a club show, so aware
she has 2CCs and a string of RCCs. Would have loved to have made
her up but in depth quality in Open was outstanding. Turned out in
fabulous condition, stands her ground, most pleasing head, clean,
balanced, flat skull, well set ears, good stop, strong muzzle, lovely dark
eye, intelligent feminine expression, strong neck into very good
shoulder, good depth of chest, spring of rib, strong forelegs, pasterns
and feet, very well built at rear, excellent thigh muscles, strong in hock,
such an easy mover. Very sound, lovely temperament;

2 Andrews’ Supeta’s Sweet Lil Mystery, most feminine girl, loved her head, eye and expression, ever attentive. Good front, depth of chest, shoulder, good
rear construction, well developed thigh muscles, good stifle, excellent
mover, kept topline, girl with attitude – of the right kind. Sound;

3 Daniel’s Smart Wood Hills Dietrich at Mattacane, Russian import from champion parents, brown/rust of obvious appeal, at 20 months coming into herself. Pleasing head, clean and balanced, nicely coloured eye and expression,
very inquisitive, body in very hardy condition, very well off for bone and
muscle, sound mover, very animated. Pleasing temperament.

O (10,3)
Now to the business end of affairs. Outstanding quality, spoilt for choice,
you name it, any old cliché will do. But with seven champions entered,
what would you think? I can honestly say it gave me a real thrill to judge
this class.

1 Ingrams’ Ch,Ir Ch Jojavik Poison Ivy JW ShCM, homebred
from champion parents, what you see is what you get. Doesn’t really
need a handler, does it all herself, but handled to perfection
nevertheless. As I said to the owners afterwards, the one thing you can’t
breed for is ring presence and charisma. That’s Mother Nature’s gift.
This girl has it in abundance. Really bristling with condition, she’s good –
and knows it! Such a lovely clean head to handle, balanced, flat skull,
well set ears, good strong muzzle, good stop, most gorgeous dark
feminine eye and expression, a real siren. In such outstanding form,
born showgirl, really excellent front and hindquarters, strong legs,
pasterns and feet, good strong rear, excellent first and second thigh
muscle enabling such easy, unperturbed movement. Dictatorial in
attitude, knows the way round with such impressive drive and good
reach in front. Still had her work cut out to win this class but never let
handler down. Yes, all dogs have faults, this girl less than most. Well
pleased to award her the CC, her 26th I believe, two short of the record.
At three and a bit years, no problem. At the in-show awards, referee
Clive Evans called her forward for BIS. Well pleased, congratulations.

2 Well. If Ivy has class, so does Mycroft’s Ch Supeta’s Spells Trouble JW
ShCM, unlucky to meet Ivy, ran her to the wire. Outstanding bitch whose
movement I couldn’t fault, but then, having gone over her, could do no
more than demonstrate how a well built, fit girl can go. A true worker.
Really super quality head, so balanced and clean, flat skull, excellent ear
carriage, loved her beautiful dark eye and ultra feminine expression.
Again, like 1, hard to fault, hands just glide over body finding everything
where it should be, so sound, so alert, so classy. Delighted to award her
the RCC and see her selected for RBIS. Well done. Daughter of BV,
mother of BPs. How bad is that?

3 Ingrams’ Ch Jojavik Molly Mobster JW ShCM, another excellent bitch of outstanding quality, total femininity, gorgeous head, eye and expression, presented in tip-top condition, showed her socks off, looked grand standing, impressive on the move, sound, delightful temperament. Completed a trio of lovely bitches.
