Northern Counties Chihuahua Club – 01/03/2020
Long Coated Chihuahuas
I would like to thank the Committee for inviting me to judge Longcoats at their open show. It was an honour to be invited. This show is one of my favourites - it’s always friendly & so well run. I would also like to thank the exhibitors for giving me a great entry & my stewards Nicki Wilkes & Denise Hurst for doing a fantastic job on the day.
VD (6,3) 1st Jones’s Kushira Fireflash - 9yr old red & white boy in fantastic condition. Good Reach of neck with a level topline. Large dark eyes with a lovely expression. He moved around the ring with ease never taking his eyes off his handler.
2nd Jones’s Kushira Flames of Desire - Similar type to first. I later learned these are litter brothers. Full of energy he thoroughly enjoyed his time in the ring. His tail never stopped wagging.
MPD (1,0) 1st Todd-Mccoid’s A Gift For Ruby – 7 month cream boy with a super coat, well bodied for one so young. He has a lovely apple domed head, lovely expression with dark pigmentation and excellent mouth. Could be a little bit longer in neck. He makes his young handler work hard. BPD.
PD (1,0) 1st Hargreaves Tampico All You Need is Love - 10 month old he has a apple domed head, large expressive eyes and a good mouth. Unfortunately, today he lacked confidence, & was reluctant to move around the ring & use his tail which spoiled the overall outline. Hopefully this will come with time.
JD (4,0) 1st Todd-Mccoid’s QQ’S Amazing Prince of Pearls - 12-month-old tri with the most gorgeous expression. Pleasing head with nicely rounded skull, good breadth between ears, large dark eyes. Lovely reach of neck leading to a level topline held at all times.
2nd Holland-Smith’s Mysterious Land Monami Diamonchi (IMP LAV) – A smart young dog - Black & White with ultra-short muzzle slightly overdone in head. I would prefer a little less head & more muzzle. Well set ears of good size. He had level topline throughout & lovely tail carriage.
ND (1,0) 1st Hargreaves Tampico Love is All You Need – Nervous & Reluctant to let me go over him on the table in the previous class we tried him on the table again & with a lot of gentle persuasion from his owner he let me go over him. Good reach of neck, level topline. Slightly longer in back then I prefer. Large dark eyes with lovely expression. Once of the floor this dog comes into his own. Moving around the ring swiftly & confidently with strong hind quarters. Hopefully the table work will come.

Good reach of neck, well laid shoulders, level topline & good tailset. Moves around the ring with drive. Pushed hard for BD just felt his litter brother had more ring presence today. RBD
2nd Humphreys Amarantos Anton - Not as mature as 1st longer in leg & needs to body up more. He has a lovely head large dark eyes & appealing expression. Good reach of neck & level topline. Was reluctant to use his ears today.
PGD (3,1) 1st Wills Dorenty Chewi Veeton - Another nice youngster who caught my eye as soon as he entered the ring. Litter brother to 1st in previous class & very similar attributes. Lovely shape & size with superb head qualities, large flaring ears, level topline & deep brisket, good ribs and correct sickle tail held throughout. Small & dainty feet & nicely cushioned pads. Presented in pristine condition. One I could take home. Pleased to award him BOB.

2nd Hargreaves Thai CH Winchis Arnold Noah – Good reach of neck leading to a level topline with well laid shoulders. Moved around the ring with drive. Unfortunately, he started losing interest towards the end dropping his tail.

She glided around the ring like a youngster with a brisk forceful action moving accurately in all directions. Good reach of neck leading to a level topline & correctly set tail. BVIB & delighted to see her go BVIS.
2nd Waterworths’s Yorone Kiss’N’Tell at Barwater – Larger than first she had a good reach of neck, level topline, well set ears & a kind expression. At 11 years old she had all her teeth & certainly gave the younger dogs in the class a run for their money.
