Turretbank (U.K. & France)
June 24th: 22nd Specialty Show
It was a tremendous honour to be invited to judge your Speciality Show. The Officers and Committee are to be congratu-
lated on such a well-organised event with the most wonderful friendly atmosphere throughout. The setting was beauti-
ful, the layout was very well presented and I should also like to thank my Ring Steward Helen Rose for her expertise and
for keeping the day flowing effortlessly. I thank the exhibitors for their quality entry and their excellent presentation.
Several class winners really shone and there were some difficult decisions to be made.

Dog Classes:
Senior Puppy Dog: 2 entries
1st - Stellar Romancing The Stone At Tycwn (Bl): (Karlee Peglen’s Rumbuntious X Stellar Moonlight Romance)
Breeder: Mary Louise Gregg - Owners: Anne L. Knauss & Carol Rose
A most attractive tricolour youngster with appealing expression and excellent pigment. His overall conformation is most pleasing
with good reach of neck, well placed shoulders and keeping a level topline at all times. Liked his neat well-defined hocks which
he used to his advantage. Well boned and carrying sufficient coat for his age.
2nd - Amberton’s Blazing Rose (R): (Bacchus Du Nid Du Faisan X Campanards Dream Rose)
Breeder: Annika & Peter Renberg - Owner: Bonnie J. Sands
A richly coloured ruby displaying a head of classical shape with sufficient cushioning for his age. His long well feathered ears are
well set and he has dark eyes and nose pigment. He is finer boned and lacking in ribcage development at the moment, therefore
giving the appearance of being longer in the body. One who needs time to develop.
12 - 18 Month Dog: 2 entries - 1 absent
1st - Burbrook Barrington Starstruck (B&T): (Ch. Wyredell Starry Knight X Ch. Barrington Burbrook Firefly)
Breeder: Peggy Wallace - Owners: Pat & Harry Barrington
Black and tan boy with rich tan markings who carries a good coat and is well bodied for age. Attractive head with soft expression
but lacking in length of neck. Front rather wide and moving close behind today but he covered the ground holding a level topline.
Canadian Bred Dog: 3 entries
1st - Glenire’s Ernie Prang (Tri): (Ch. Chrys-Haefen Oscar Wilde X Glenire’s Undaunted)
Breeders: Valerie Toth & Emily Toth Tamminga - Owner: Dianne Carroll
Handsome, heavily marked tricolour in good coat of excellent texture. His lovely soft expressive eyes and dark pigment give his
well proportioned head a most attractive appearance being framed by long ear fringes. Good front and rear movement allowing
him to stride out freely around the ring.
2nd - Madrigal The Entertainer (Bl): (Ch. Shirmont Rhapsody in Blue X Ch. Madrigal Kiss Me Kate)
Breeder: Beverly Dent - Owner: Sherrill Norris
Blenheim boy slightly lacking in coat today but has long ear fringes framing a handsome head, good dentition but would prefer a
slightly darker eye. He was most attentive to his handler and moved well but falling away slightly at the croup.
3rd - Jewelcroft’S CEO (Bl): (Ch. Woodmere’s Red Baron X Ch. Burbrook Opal at Jewelcroft)
Breeder: Bonnie J. Sands - Owner: Brian Gray
Well presented Blenheim with good head shape, level skull, excellent ear fringes and dark nose pigment. Larger and heavier boned
than my first two placed. Mature in body with well rounded ribcage. Strode out well but rather proud of his tail today.
Bred By Exhibitor Dog: 2 entries
1st - Wug’s Royal Oak (Bl): (Ch. Karlee Peglen’s Rumbuntious (USA) X Ch. Wug Bug A Loo Ba)
Breeder/Owner: Lisa Lott
- Pleased to award him RESERVE WINNERS DOG.
I liked the overall shape of this puppy. Having done all his growing at an early stage he did not look out of place in this class. He has
the most attractive head with expressive dark eyes, good pigment, correct dentition and sufficient reach of neck. His well laid
shoulders blend into a level topline and his tail carriage was perfect. Good front and rear movement and on the move he commanded
attention.
2nd - Dreamwoods Lion Heart (R): (Ch. Dubourg Coeur de Lion X Malindi V.’T Burgstse Hof)
Breeder/Owners: Laura & Norm McMinn
Smaller framed than #1 but mature in body. Attractive head with dark pigment but would prefer more neck and better shoulder
placement. Moved well with good tail carriage.
Open Dog: 5 entries
1st - Ca Cambridge Dream Weaver (B&T): (Ch. Coralaw Wishes ‘n’ Dreams X Camcav Queen of the Night)
Breeder: Elaine Mitchell - Owners: Dr. Barb Magera & Elaine Mitchell
- A well deserved WINNERS DOG and BEST OF OPPOSITE SEX.
A fabulously coated black and tan who came into the ring with such enthusiasm, he dared to go unnoticed. Very attractive boy put
down in excellent condition and with sufficient neck, well laid shoulders and short back to his credit. His head has good proportions
and is framed by long, full ear fringes. Movement was true both front and rear and he motored around the ring holding a level
topline.
2nd - Stellar Fireball At Tycwn (R): (Stellar Heartsafie X Stellar Buffy The Vampire Slayer)
Breeder: Mary Louise Gregg - Owner: Anne L. Knauss
Very well constructed ruby who belies his age and at over seven years he held his own in this class. His head shape and expression
appealed to me but would prefer a slightly darker eye. Nicely proportioned body with good ribcage and he moved out well with
good front and rear movement using his hocks to advantage.

3rd - Chrys-Haefen Ddls Digl Glenire (Tri): (Ch. Chrys-Haefen Oscar Wilde X Ch. Chrys-Haefen Carefree Beauty)
Breeder: Jennifer McAuley - Owners: Valerie Toth & Emily Toth Tamminga
Young heavily marked tricolour boy with rather a lot to like about him. Although his blaze is narrow, it does not detract from his
kind, gentle expression and his lovely long ear fringes framing his well balanced head proportions. He moved true in both directions
and kept a superb topline at all times and with correct tail carriage. He needs time to mature.
4th - Jewelcroft’s Delicato (R): (Ch. Jovan Royal Rock N Roll X Campanard’s Eternell)
Breeder/Owner: Bonnie J. Sands
Richly coloured ruby with slightly longer body. Attractive head with tapered muzzle and well set ears. Another who covered the
ground with level topline and correct tail carriage and he was most attentive to his handler.
Veteran Dog: 4 entries
1st - Stellar Fireball At Tycwn (R): (Stellar Heartsafire X Stellar Buffy The Vampire Slayer)
Breeder: Mary Louise Gregg - Owner: Ann L. Knauss
Very well constructed ruby who belies his age and at over seven years he held his own in this class. His head shape and expression
appealed to me but would prefer a slightly darker eye. Nicely proportioned body with good ribcage and he moved out well with
good front and rear movement using his hocks to advantage.
2nd - Mostyn Overlord (Tri): (Ch. Sheryane Carver’s Three Pete X Mostyn Cherish)
Breeder: Brigida Reynolds - Owner: Gloria Paul
Nicely constructed heavily marked 8 year old tricolour with an endearing expression. He knows how to use those large dark eyes
and his well set ears. He has good neck and shoulder placement and is well coated for his age.
3rd - Ch. Rulers Shaggy Dog (Bl): (Ch. Cavashon Rain Mayker X Ch. Rulers Silk Slippers)
Breeder/Owners: Mike & Sandy Gelinas
Blenheim boy of 9 ½ years being slightly larger in frame and well boned. He has a good head shape, dense nose pigment and
dark eyes. Excellent ear fringes but his coat is beginning to show his age.
4th - Plantagenet’s Buddy (Bl): (Plantagenet’s Sundance X Plantagenet’s Mindy)
Breeder: Howard Harper - Owner: Gloria Paul
Compact 10 year old well broken Blenheim who was rather out of coat but having lovely long ear fringes framing a well balance
head with gentle expression. Happy boy who strode out well.
BITCH CLASSES
Junior Puppy Bitch: 4 entries
1st - Cobbhill Golden Marguerite (Bl): (Peakdowns Huntley X Karlee Gray Stone High Society)
Breeder: Mary Pat Brunson - Owners: Carol Rose & Mary Pat Brunson
- Selected as BEST PUPPY.
My eye was drawn to this well balanced heavily marked 7 month Blenheim puppy. She is so well constructed having good reach of
neck and shoulder placement and her front and rear movement, topline and tail carriage are correct. Her head is of the classical
shape with dark eyes, good nose pigment and correct bite. She did misbehave in the ring but I will always forgive a puppy for doing
so.
2nd - Banner Gracie Slick (Bl): (Orchard Hill Spoken For X Banner’s Bells and Whistles)
Breeder/Owner: Linda Ziehm
Well broken Blenheim puppy with the prettiest head and sweet expression using her well set ears to advantage. She too is very
well balanced with excellent bone for her age. I loved her elegant neck carriage and her exuberant attitude in the ring, covering the
ground with ease.
3rd - Virgo Cherry Bomb (Bl): (Parkbury Sole Mate X Ch. Virgo New Resolution)
Breeder/Owner: Karen M Wnek
Very pretty lightly marked Blenheim with short, compact body and lovely bone for her age. Most pleasing head shape, excellent
pigment and dark, expressive eyes. Good front and rear angulations with well let down hocks, allowing plenty of drive.
4th - Burbrook Camelot (Tri): (Ch. Wyredell Starry Knight (GBR) X Ch. Wugs N Kisses For Burbrook)
Breeder/Owner: Peggy Wallace
Slightly finer built, nicely marked tricolour with pretty head and expression. Another with excellent dark eyes, and nose pigment.
Moved true both front and rear and held a level topline at all times.
Senior Puppy Bitch: 7 entries, 2 absent
1st - Birchrun’s Lucky Summer Charm (Bl): (Sheryane Double Take X Hartscontent Midsummer Magic)
Breeder/Owners: Joan Robinson & Don Robinson
Well broken Blenheim with the alleged desired lozenge. Most attractive outline with short coupled body, excellent angulations and
ample bone. Prettiest of heads with excellent pigment and lovely ear fringes. Moved with ease around the ring.
2nd - Woodmere Dream Believer (Tri): (Ch. Brinklow Lord Merlyn De Clare X Ch. Woodmere’s Rhapsody in Winter)
Breeder/Owner: Joan MacIntyre
Very clean cut tricolour with just the right amount of well conditioned coat for her age. Pleasing head proportions with a nicely
tapered muzzle and lovely dark eyes giving the desired soft expression. Most attractive outline and good spring of rib. Wish she
was just a little more animated.

4th - Cavalaine Secret Dreamer (Bl): (Ch. Craigowl Ryton (GBR) X Ch. Cavalaine Secret Design)
Breeder/Owner: Elaine Ellis
Another pretty Blenheim with well broken markings and complete with lozenge. Well constructed with good bone and ample
depth of chest but falls away at the croup. Her coat is of correct texture and she was well presented.

1st - Dreamwoods Ministik Ember Glow (B&T): (Ch. Rabymar Adonis X Dreamwoods Gooseberry Blaksilk)
Breeder: Laura & Norm McMinn - Owner: Leah Swatko

Breeder/Owners: Valerie Toth & Emily Toth Tamminga

move.

WINNERS BITCH … BEST OF WINNERS ... BEST OF BREED
Such a pretty Blenheim of ideal size. Most attractive head with large dark round expressive eyes, black nose and correct tapered
muzzle. Was impressed with her slightly arched neck and well laid shoulders, level topline and correct tail set. Short coupled with
good rear angulation and well let down hocks which she used to advantage. Able to view her rear pads as she moved away, making
her way around the ring holding her head proudly and maintaining a level topline at all times. Such an impressive picture.
Delighted to give her the above awards.
