EASTERN
COUNTIES ROTTWEILER CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW,
1st AUGUST 2004
I would like to thank ECRC for my invitation
to judge this lovely show and yet again ordering the weather, although
at first it did not look at all promising, it was however perfect for
the dogs allowing the youngsters to be completed before it became too
hot.
Thank you to all the exhibitors for a lovely entry and for accepting
the places so graciously.
The down side was light mouth pigment, however the flews were still
black which is what the standard calls for. I had four close bites,
but generally the dentition was good with the exception of a fewdirty
teeth.
All principal winners having correct bites and dentition.
Poor feet and loose pasterns spoiled some quality bitches; long toenails
in some cases aided this.
Many exhibits on the day were badly out of coat, which completely spoiled
the outline of some lovely bitches, but I had to judge them as they
say on the day.
The open class warrants a special mention, I was delighted, what quality?
I am fully aware I dismissed at least two lovely bitches I have previously
admired, such was the quality but there is only one red card and only
five can be placed.
The majority of the exhibits where a credit to their owners in that
they were clean and well presented for the show.
All principal winners moved well.

18 Entries (2 abs)
1st & Best Puppy Bitch
Hill’s Juffther’s Nutty Tart, just 8 months old. Overall picture
of this bitch is excellent. Correct proportions, level top line and correct
croup, same goes for rear and front angulation - no exaggerations. Good
bone and substance. Feminine but strong head, well placed ears, medium
to dark eyes, well defined stop. Clean neck flowed into well placed shoulders.
Richest of tans. Moved really well for one so young.
In the challenge for Best Puppy she came up against a nice dog but on
the day I believed the bitch had the edge, just a little more mature,
however on the referees decision the honour went to the dog, he had apparently
already won the puppy stake class judged by the referee.
My understanding is that the bitch had not competed for this, but I beg
the question had she had done so under this judge would she have been
a beaten exhibit under the referee at this point of the show?
2nd Barnes’s Gyrima Fendi
Almost 9 months old. Well-balanced, overall a lovely bitch. Nice head,
neat ears, dark eyes, again lovely clean shoulders and outline, tan slightly
lighter than one. Moved well.
3rd Wykes’s Revalleys Incantation

outline. Moved out and was well handled.
2nd Killick’s Travillons Mazzaras simply Chic
11 Months old, another lovely bitch, again head needs to develop but has
dark eyes and well placed ears. Well off for bone and nice tight feet.

2nd Drinkwater’s Galerita I think I’m Madam
16 month old bitch, Nice head with medium eye. Good feet, quite a nice

was difficult to assess he. I was however able to see enough to enable
me to award her 2nd in this class
3rd Mabey’s Rottivana Abracadabra
Grad
B 7 Entries ( 2 abs)
1st Killick’s Travillons Me and My Shadow
19 months old, beautiful bitch, showing her head off ‘look at me’,
stunning in outline, clean and in top condition. Lovely head and expression.
Considered for top honours but she just need more time to mature, a sure
winner though and one to watch.
What can I say loved her all quarters, top and under lines. Lovely rich
tan.Well angulated front and rear which enables her to move fluently around
the ring.

shoulders and rear angulation, well proportioned. Lovely mover.
2nd Healds Pendley New Beginning at Rottstaff

3rd William’s Bryjul Blue Pearl
Limit
B 18 Entries (6 abs)
1st Hopgood’s Saint Lythans Ruby Tuesday
Lots to like about this girlie, maturing nicely, I liked her head, which
has good a depth of muzzle, well filled cheeks, darkest of eyes, well
placed ears.
Good reach of neck flowed down into well-placed shoulders. Good top line,
and rear angulation that allowed her to move nicely around the ring Well
handled.
2nd Bentleys Fronfelen Flit n Flirt
Another nice mature bitch, different head type to one, many of the qualities
apply, currently loosing her jacket, spoiling her profile a little. Moved
well.
3rd Roberts’s Rykamie Fantasy Song of Stattlich
Open
B 16 Entries ( 2 abs)
1st Window’s Ch Hanbar Vodka Ice
A little plain in head! But, with that out of the way lets look at the
rest. Has dark eyes and well placed ears. Her outline is lovely and very
impressive, clean and sharp. Correct shoulder placement, straight when
viewed from the front, maturity clearly seen in the depth of body and
firm top line, which holds well as she moves around the ring, showing
that she is well muscled and in good condition. Correct harsh coat and
rich tan markings
2nd Brawn’s Ch Ravenrock She’s Wicked at Javladare
Another exceptional bitch, Champion also being a well deserved title.
Very pretty head and excellent expression, with the darkest of eyes. Many
of the qualities of one also apply, difficult to split, just starting
to loose her coat.
3rd Hill’s Juffther Jabberwocker
Veteran
B 8 entries (2 abs)
Lovely class of Veteran bitches, very pleased with the quality entry,
age difference can obviously plays havoc when considering ones places.
1st Roberts and Monk’s Ch Olearia Shooting Star - 7 years
Both one and two have the lovely classic clean Rottweiler outline, having
correct proportions, correct shoulder placement and rear angulation, again
both have lovely heads and expressions with dark eyes. Movement of the
‘youngster’ won the day.
2nd Lockyer’s Ch Bolia Sweet Spirit of Guardami. See report above
- 8.5 years
3rd Johnsons’ Hanrah This Time - 9.5 years
