Northern & Eastern Counties Papillon Club

Before the show started, there was a lovely tribute to the late Jimmy Simpson. Not the usual sad one, but a fun one, which Jimmy would have got a good laugh from. Spoken by Queenie Bruce, who made everybody laugh.

I would like to thank the Northern & Eastern Counties Papillon Club for inviting me to judge at their show and for the exhibitors for giving me the honour to judge their lovely dogs. I had a very enjoyable day and found many exhibits typical of the breed. I was delighted with my main winners and thrilled that my Co-Judge, Jerry Munroe and I completely agreed on all the major awards.
Joe Magri

Minor Puppy Dog (9 entries, 2 absent)
1st: (Mesdams C Lee-Slater & C Kewley) Magic Sunrise Ace Ventura (Imp Ltv) very elegant Tri dog who presents a lovely shape when standing. Excellent head and eye with super, large flaring ears with amble fringing coming, giving a lovely expression. Nice to go over on the table with lots to like about him. Finely boned forelegs with correct hare feet. Level topline and excellent high set tail. Still needs a little time to come together on the move but with maturity I have no doubt this will come and he will be one to watch in the future.
2nd: (Jane Thompson & Sandra Austin) Melangel Highland by Design at Jhanakia B/W boy of a completely different type to 1 but with still lots to like about him. Decent size and shape. Correct head proportions with lovely dark eye and well set, large ears that he used to advantage. Enough neck and well placed shoulders. Good body and substance for age. Nice topline and tail set. Good coat of correct texture coming in. Moved out soundly. For me just not the overall elegance as 1.

Puppy Dog (7 entries, 0 absent)
1st: (Elizabeth & Karen Anderson) Northlyte Spirit of the Isle lovely sized Tri male with a super balanced head and lovely expression. Finely boned legs and good hare feet. Decent length of neck and well placed shoulders. Enough body for his age. Correct topline and correctly set tail with lovely plume. Moved soundly up and back and very balanced in profile. Just needs a little more confidence to complete the picture which I hope comes in time as I am sure he could trouble the best.
2nd: (Mrs D L Watson) Buoncasa Elf on the Shelf another Tri boy and the baby of the class but he did not let the others over shadow him with his confident, cheeky persona. Very pretty head of the correct proportions and lovely eye. Well set, large fringed ears used to advantage. All of a piece as you go over him and has a lovely level topline and ideally set tail. Moved out well, just not the finish and maturity of my winner.

Moved around the ring with such elegance and style, holding a level topline and carrying his tail perfectly at all times. Lovely silky coat, presented well. I was delighted to award him BPD and after much deliberation with my co-judge (as we both loved both puppies) eventually BPIS. Well done, I will follow his career with interest.

Many thanks to the Committee for their kind invitation to judge bitches, and for their generous hospitality on the day. As usual, the show had a warm and welcoming atmosphere with lots of thoughtful extras for the exhibitors. The Club President Queenie Bruce gave a moving tribute to Jimmy Simpson, a founder member of the Club and former Club Chairman. Jimmy had devoted much of his life to the Club and was a great supporter of new comers in the breed. Indeed, it was Jimmy who encouraged me to start judging, and it was he who gave me my first judging appointment at Selby Canine Society. I will always be grateful to Jimmy for setting me on the path that ultimately led to my appointment here today at my favourite show.

Thanks also go to the exhibitors for their support and for allowing me to judge their dogs. I was very pleased with the entry, and having been away from the English shows for a while many of the exhibits were new to me, and I felt I was seeing the breed though fresh eyes. Whilst I was more than happy with my winners, there were a couple of points that concerned me. It seems that in some lines heads are changing, with quite a few girls being somewhat workman like in appearance. For me the papillon should always be a pretty, and bitches in particular should look feminine. We also need to watch construction as some otherwise good exhibits had lazy fronts, standing at 10-2. Finally, I found several crooked, and even one twisted tail. It is important to remember that as breeders, exhibitors and judges we are guardians of the breed and we have a responsibility to safeguard the integrity and quality of the dogs we produce and those we bring in to the show ring.

For Best in Show, my co-judge and I happily agreed on the dog Ch FEORLIG SMARTY PANTS JW ShCM, bred by Jenny Miller and owned by Kirsty Miller and Evan Ryan. Congratulations to all concerned with this lovely boy.

Minor Puppy Bitch (8 entries, 2 absent)
1st: (Mrs Lynn George-Evans) Jorgealin Tri Some Magic; tri bitch. This very pretty 7 months old bitch has a lovely balanced head with good proportions, correct bite and dark, inquisitive eyes. Her ears are correctly set, with good fringing for her age, framing her face well and enhancing her pretty expression. She stands and moves confidently, holding her top line all the while and her tail is set high and carried well. She was presented in immaculate condition and obviously adores her handler/owner; a lovely start to my judging today.
2nd: (Miss S Orchard) Panspayon Gold Fever; red and white bitch. At 6 months old this girl is still quite raw and very much a baby, but with nothing to hide she has much to commend her. She has a well balanced head, good stop, correct bite and dark, well set eyes. She has large, rounded ears which are well fringed and correctly set. In profile she shows a super outline with level top line, good reach of neck and a high set tail. On the move she was lively and spirited, and was obviously enjoying her day out.
3rd: (Mary Whitehill & P Urwin) Amicae Rosie Bud; red sable 7 months old. This pretty, well marked bitch has a well proportioned head set off by beautiful dark eyes and correctly set, rounded ears. She was a little unsettled on the table but recovered well once on the floor where she showed off her level top line and good tail set and carriage.

Puppy Bitch (10 entries, 2 absent)
1st: (Mrs S Stanbury) Inixia Glamour Girl; 9 months old black and white. This beautifully marked and well named girl caught my eye as she entered the ring. She has a very pretty head with dark, well set eyes giving her a bright and inquisitive look. She has well fringed, correctly set ears which she used expressively. She is well constructed, with a level top line, high set tail and parallel movement both front and rear. A quality bitch who’s progress I will follow with interest. I was delighted to award her Best Puppy Bitch and later see her go Reserve Best Puppy in Show.
2nd: (Kay Stewart & Kirsten Stewart-Knight) Denemore Ragge Knight Story at Tussalud NAF; 7 months old tri. This young girl is balanced and well constructed, though a heavier type than 1. She has a well proportioned head with dark, expressive eyes, correct bite and well set, rounded ears. Her coat is of the correct texture and was beautifully presented. She has a level top line and good tail set, and moved with confidence around the ring, being very attentive to her handler/owner. <
3rd: (Miss S Orchard) Ablazzor Angel of the North at Panspayon; 9 months old. This tri girl has a nicely balanced head with a well defined stop, dark eyes and correctly set, well fringed ears. She has a lovely profile with a level top line and correct tail set and carriage. She was lively and energetic on the floor but, perhaps in her enthusiasm today, she showed a tendency to high stepping at the front which affected her balance on the move.

Junior Bitch (9 entries, 2 absent)
1st: (C & A Thornton) Collness Kiss n Tell Shevid; 12 months old. This nicely marked black and white girl has dark, well set eyes, a good stop and large rounded ears. She needs to settle more on the table but is much more at home on the floor where she gave a good account of herself. She is well balanced in her construction and moved well and with confidence.
2nd: (Susan Lanson) Cantoverde Royal Chyna;18 months old tri. This strikingly marked bitch is dainty and well constructed and has lots of personality. She has a nicely proportioned head with a well defined stop, correct bite and dark and inquisitive eyes. Her ears are set at the correct angle, are well fringed and were used to advantage. She has a good overall shape, is lovely for size and is very attentive to her handler/owner, though she was high stepping a bit at the front today.
3rd: (E L Morley) Jorgealin Indian Magic at Lizlanmor; 18 months old. This beautifully marked tri has the darkest of eyes, a balanced muzzle, correct bite and well set ears, all of which combine to give a very pretty and soft expression. In profile she has a good overall shape with an elegant reach of neck, level top line and high set tail which she shows off proudly. I would prefer a slightly straighter front, though she does move soundly and with purpose, and is very much in tune with her handler/owner.

Yearling Bitch (4 entries, 1 absent)
1st: (Miss K F Miller & Mr E L Ryan) Feorlig Wake up Maggie JW; 2 years old. This sable bitch with black mask and pencil blaze demanded attention when she entered the ring. She has a super shape with level top line, moderate neck and well set tail. She has a beautifully silky textured coat which was presented to perfection. She is dainty without being delicate, and moves soundly and with confidence. Up close, she has the prettiest of heads; large, rounded ears and dark, well set eyes with a mischievous expression. I was very happy to award her Reserve Best Bitch and the Reserve CC.
2nd: (Angela Kelton) Adnamashan Still Game; 19 months old tri. My notes start with the words Fire Cracker – and she certainly was! She is a well marked, pretty bitch with bags of attitude and fun. She has a lovely balanced head framed by correctly set, well fringed ears; level top line and good tail set. She is quite compact in construction but moves with plenty of drive and confidence.
3rd: (Mr P & Mrs J A Hill) Caraideas Rainbows End; 14 months. This is a lovely red sable bitch with the darkest and most expressive of eyes. She has such an elegant outline with a level top line, good tail set/carriage, super angles and she moves parallel both front and rear. Her coat is silky in texture and needs time to settle but was well presented. With a little more time to mature and build her confidence I’m sure this girl will have a bright future.

Novice Bitch (6 entries, 3 absent)
1st: (Mrs S Stanbury) Inixia Luscious Lucy; 9 months red sable and white. Litter sister to my puppy class winner and very much cast from the same mould.

2nd: (Miss S Orchard) Panspayon Gold Fever

Graduate Bitch (2 entries, 1 absent)
1st: (Mr A May, Mrs C Foynes & Mrs M Whitehill) Lafay has the Last Word with Amicae; 2 years old. This red sable bitch is another with a mischievous expression and loads of attitude. She has a slightly rounded head with a well defined stop, dark inquisitive eyes and well set ears, which she used well. She is finely built and just needs to tighten up her front more. She was lively and enthusiastic on the move and was thoroughly enjoying her day out.

Post Graduate Bitch (5 entries, 1 absent)
1st: (Miss D A Goodwin) Paplene Regal Roxanne; 3 years old. This cheeky black and white girl was a clear winner for me today. Her pretty head, framed by well fringed ears, has the darkest of well set eyes, which gave the softest of expressions but at the same time giving a glint of mischief too. She has a lovely straight front, good reach of neck, level top line and correct tail carriage. She was lively and energetic on the move and very attentive to her handler/owner.
2nd: (Laura Mandelson) Maridova Victorias Dream in Honrukai JW SHCM (IKC); 3 years old. This tri girl, despite being more robust in build than 1, is certainly not heavy in type. She has rich tan markings and large, rounded ears, dark eyes and a correct bite. Her top line is level and she has a good tail set, but I would have preferred a little more reach of neck to give a more balanced outline. She moved steadily and with confidence.
3rd: (Mrs G A Geary) Taliesyn Traveller Joy; 4 years old. This black and white girl was also of a more solid type than the class winner but is still a well balanced and nicely constructed girl. She has well placed, dark eyes and correctly set ears. She has a level top line which she holds both standing and on the move.

Limit Bitch (10 entries, 0 absent)
1st: (Miss S Orchard) Ringlands Yoko’s Solo at Panspayon SHCM; 4 years old red sable. This girl has a well marked head with large, rounded and well fringed ears. Her dark eyes are correctly set and give a soft expression. In profile she presents a balanced outline with good reach of neck, level top line and a well plumed tail. Her coat was of the correct single and silky texture and was beautifully presented. She moved well and was very much in tune with her handler/owner.
2nd: (Miss Sophie Langdon) Shadowknight Ebony Rose of Skyvana; 21 months old. This beautifully presented black and white girl has a lovely overall shape, with a level top line and correct tail set/carriage balanced by good reach of neck. Her head is nicely framed by the largest of heavily fringed ears and the whole picture is very elegant. Hands on, this girl needs to body up more. On the floor she was moved with plenty of speed which perhaps didn’t allow her to give of her best today.
3rd: (Mrs Eileen Roberts & Miss Caroline Smith) Semicvetik Dayana Devine; 3 years old, hound tri. This Phalene has the prettiest of heads with well placed tri markings. Her ears are correctly set and hang close to her head. They are well fringed and serve to enhance the gentle expression of her dark eyes. On the table she presented a lovely profile with a level top line and good tail set. She is well made at the front and moves well; her rear movement was a little erratic today. Her coat is single and silky in texture, and was well presented.

2nd: (Kay Stewart & Kirsten Stewart-Knight) Ch & Ir Ch Tussalud Story Tales; 4.5 years old. This elegant sable girl presents a lovely profile in the ring. She has good reach of neck leading to a level top line and high set tail. She is well constructed with a straight front and moved well around the ring. Her eyes are dark and perhaps a little larger in size, giving a slightly more open expression. Her ears are large, rounded and well fringed and she used these very expressively; engaging well with her handler/ owner.
3rd: (Mr P & Mrs J A Hill) Caraideas True Colours; 4.5 years old, tri.

Champion Bitch (3 entries, 0 absent)
1st: (Mrs J Davidson-Poston) Multi Ch (3) Spinillons Classic Caress JS SHCM, CW14 PPVN15, Ir Jun Ch; 6 years old. This black and white girl is soundly constructed and has so much to offer. Her evenly marked head is balanced and shows good proportions, with a well defined stop; clean and correct dentition; dark, sparkling eyes, all framed by rounded, well fringed ears. On the table you are able to appreciate her balanced construction, level top line, correct tail set and carriage, and in addition she feels toned and well muscled. She has a bright and attentive expression, is well schooled and is very much in tune with her handler/owner.
2nd: (Mrs C Lee-Slater) Ch Jorgealin Cast a Spell for Kingshaven; 3 years old. This dainty and very elegant tri bitch also caught my eye in the ring. Of a lighter frame than 1, she is, none the less, soundly put together with everything in the right place. She has correctly set round eyes, a well defined stop and balanced muzzle with correct and clean bite, all of which combine to give a very pretty expression. She stands four square with a good reach of neck, level top line and correct tail set. She was a little unsettled on the move today, otherwise the placings could well have changed. A lovely, quality exhibit.
3rd: (Mrs Lynn George-Evans) Ch Jorgealin Moon Magic SHCM; another quality Champion bitch; unfortunate to meet 1 and 2 today.

Veteran Bitch (5 entries, 0 absent)
1st: (Miss E & Mrs M Buss) Ch Twiggy Cupcake of Flutura JW; 8 years old. An old favourite of mine who I have judged before. As a veteran she still maintains her great outline and balance, with elegant reach of neck, level top line and is beautifully straight both front and rear. Bright eyed and bushy tailed, she was presented to perfection as always and is a real credit to her owner. An easy winner for Best Veteran Bitch and then Best Veteran in Show.
2nd: (Mrs J Davidson-Poston) Ch, Ir Ch, Multi Vet Ch (4) Spinillons Saffire JW SHCM, PPVN16; 11 years old and not a grey hair in sight. This extremely pretty and well marked tri girl has lovely dark eyes and excellent dentition. She stands four square and carries her high set tail well. She has a profuse coat which was beautifully presented but perhaps made her appear a bit short in neck today. Her well fringed ears frame her face beautifully when alert. She moved with an energy and drive that could teach some younger bitches a lesson or two.
3rd: (Mrs J L Green) Mercedes Diamond at Rubywings; 7 years old. A lovely profile and shape to this tri bitch who presents a level top line and good tail set/carriage. She has a pretty head with dark eyes and well set ears. She was steady on the floor and moved well around the ring.

Special Phalene Bitch (3 entries, 0 absent)
1st: (Mrs J Davidson-Poston & Miss K Farrell) Ari De Pari Eadin Darlyn Spinillons (Imp Rus) (Phalene); 18 months old. This gorgeous tri-colour bitch was a real pleasure to judge. Watching her across the ring it was easy to see her clean and balanced outline with everything in moderation. She stood perfectly and elegantly with a level top line, good reach of neck and well set/carried tail complemented by her straight and parallel front and rear. Her head is very feminine and beautifully proportioned; her ears are correctly placed and she has the most expressive eyes. I had no hesitation in awarding her the Bitch CC and was delighted to see her go Reserve Best in Show as well as Best Phalene in Show.
2nd: (Mrs Eileen Roberts & Miss Caroline Smith) Semicvetik Dayana Devine Panspayon (Imp)
3rd: (Mrs T Collins) Bonmeshays Shady Lady; 5 years old. This black and white girl is well marked with lovely dark eyes giving a soft expression. Unfortunately today her ears are needing to settle more. She moved well and was very attentive to her handler/owner.

Judge: Jacqueline Hill (Caraideas)

My thanks to the officers and committee of the Northern and Eastern Counties Papillon Club for inviting me to judge their very well run, friendly show and to the exhibitors who, very kindly, thought me worthy of judging their beloved papillons and phalenes. I also must thank my steward Mr Ted Rogerson for keeping me right and the ring running smoothly.

Veteran Dog (8, 1)
1st Bartram – Ch Burghbridge Black Shadow JW. B/W. As always from this kennel, presented and handled to perfection. A nicely balanced dog, with sound construction and movement. Good furnishings and although lacking a little in coat today, was in good condition and obviously still enjoying his time in the ring. BV
2nd Atkins – Papplewick Pinball Wizard to Vlinder. R/W Lovely type. Good head of correct shape and proportions with large rounded, well placed ears. In lovely coat and furnishings and well bodied. Good basic body construction and moving well. Very close decision.

1st Bruce & Bruce-Jackson – Tijuana Double Trouble. R/W. Just 6 months. Nice shape, reach of neck, rear angulation and tail carriage. Large well placed ears and dark eye. Happy showing and attentive to handler. 
2nd Thompson & Austin – Melangel Cheeky Charlie at Jhanakai. B/W. Nice typey puppy with a pretty head and good ears. In lovely coat for age and starting to finish nicely. Back movement let him down.

Puppy Dog (3, 0)
1st Ramsey & Mowatt – Iotastar’s Brave New World. TRI. A very promising puppy but this fine, dainty, little boy, unlike his sister, (BPIS) lacks confidence a little. This means he loses his tail carriage just enough to spoil the overall picture. Very typey, though, with a profuse amount of correct coat and furnishings for his age. Generally, he is well put together though front could be better. Will watch his future with interest. BPD
2nd Bruce – Tijuana Mayhem. R/W. Phalene. Just 6 months but showed confidently and happily. Well marked, good body and reach of neck with level topline, good depth of chest and correctly set (wagging) tail. 
3rd Green & Fletcher – Papretty Life On Mars

Junior Dog (3, 0)
1st Lees – Lafford Fireman Sam B/W. Sound construction and movement. Good stop and rise to head with large well placed ears fringing up nicely. Coat coming.
2nd Waller – Lilnrose I’m A Love Bug. R/S. My eye was drawn to this boy. Love his type. He has a good head shape, dark eye and large well fringed ears. Correct length of neck set on nicely laid back shoulder. Good depth of chest, level topline and correct tail set. In good coat of nice texture but his front could be better. 
3rd Richardson – Ringlands Sunny Tommy Tucker to Belvane

Yearling Dog (4, 1)
1st Clint – Papplewick Prince Bishop. B/W. A dainty, fine, little dog but within the 8 – 11 inches of the standard. Very pretty head and soft expression with dark eye and very large, well set and well fringed ears. Basic body construction is good. Coat of good quality but a little lacking today and could carry a little more weight. 
2nd Waller – Lilnrose Ears Looking At You. R/S. Phalene. Not settling today on the move. Symmetrical head markings with dark pigment. Good body proportions and keeping his tail carriage. Enough coat and of good texture.

1st Clint – Papplewick Persian Power JW ShCM. B/W. Lovely type with the attractive head so typical of this kennel. Medium reach of neck, level topline, good depth of chest and spring of rib with elbows close. Nice tuck up and correct tailset and carriage. Quality coat with lovely furnishings. Front could be better.
2nd Green – Jorgealin Ziggy Starman at Rubywings. R/W. Not as fine as 1 but a lot to like about him. Stands four square at all times with good angulation front and rear and nice hare feet. Well coated but not the earspan of 1.
3rd Foynes & May – Lafay Grand Prix
Res Dolan – Feorlig Eyecatcher at Roseholme

Post Graduate Dog (6, 1)
1st Aitkin – Elfuago Anew Adventure. TRI. Very striking head with excellent ears. He has good overall construction with a nice reach of neck and moved soundly. His coat is of good quality but a little lacking today.
2nd Clint – Petress Special Blend JW. R/W. Nicely balanced and sound in conformation and movement. A well proportioned head with good stop and rise but preferred the earspan of 1.

1st Christensen – Tresor’s Kings Valiant Lancelot. B/W. Another lacking coat today taking away from the overall look. Profuse fringing though on a set of beautiful ears. He has dark eyes and pigment. A good neck and tailset, level topline, good front and rear angulation giving sound movement. Stands four square. Head could be more refined.
2nd Foynes & May – Lafay Petite Etoile JW. R/S. Nicely put together with good coat. Moved and showed well but lack of earspan and all round fringing just spoiling the picture a little.

1st Clint – Ch Papplewick Preacher Man JW ShCM. B/W. Have always admired this small, fine, dainty boy but until today have never had the privilege of judging him. He has a lovely head with the correct muzzle to skull ratio and the muzzle is set at right angles to his skull giving the desired 90 degree stop. This, together with a lovely dark, well placed eye and good head markings, the whole framed by large, rounded, correctly placed, heavily fringed ears gives, to my mind, the classic papillon head which I fell in love with many years ago. Behind this beautiful head is a well put together body with neck of medium length, well sprung rib, good depth of chest, level topline and correctly set on tail with profuse plume. He has good angulation front and rear, giving good movement. He has straight front legs and the desired hare feet. He was well presented, in good condition and with plenty of correct coat. He was enjoying his day and was the perfect little butterfly! BIS 
2nd Foynes & May – Sweetbriar Face The Music at Johnasta. R/S. Nice type. Balanced outline, good conformation and moving soundly. Correct head shape and proportions with dark eye and rounded ears well placed but a little lacking in fringing.

1st Maskell – Kazkell Velvet Dream JW. Balanced outline. Good head and ears. Neck of medium length onto nicely laid back shoulder, very level topline and correct tailset. Stands four square with beautiful hare feet.
2nd Munroe – Serenglade Candykisses at Winterwings. B/W. Another nice type with a good head and body just lacking the finishing of 1.

Minor Puppy Bitch (3, 0)
1st Green & Fletcher – Afterglow Stagedoor Bonnet. TRI. A real baby with very little coat but a lot to like about her. She has a good head and ears, a nice outline and showed well for her handler. At the moment she’s a little close behind and needs to body up.
2nd Mann – Stagedoor Beatrix Melangel. TRI. Another who’s front let her down today but she has good head markings and very large, well shaped and placed ears already starting to fringe. Nice body shape with good tail set and coat starting to come.
3rd Mann – Melangel Callianne

Puppy Bitch (1, 0)
1st Kirk – Iotastar’s Forever Autumn at Kirkchase. 11 Month old R/W. A very promising puppy with an absolutely stunning head. She is well put together and carries herself proudly and confidently around the ring. She was put down immaculately with a correct coat, plentiful for her age. Pushed for BB but would like a tad less leg to complete the picture and a little tighter in front. Nevertheless, I’m sure this lovely example of our breed has a very successful showing career ahead of her and wish her well.

1st Maskell – Lilnrose Too Vain To Dream Kazkell. TRI. She has a good head shape and proportions and a balanced body but a little unsettled today .

1st Varley – Ambre Dore Beata Bea at Coxleyview. R/S. A lot to admire about this girl. She has a profuse correct coat with a lovely tail plume and curtain fringes on large, rounded well placed ears. She has a balanced outline and her movement is true. Always showing and paying attention to her handler and presented to perfection. However, for me I would like more refinement to her head. 
2nd Green – Mercedes Diamond at Rubywings. TRI. A lovely type with a beautiful head, good ears and fringing. Enough coat but not really showing today.

Well presented and always showing and attentive to her handler. Pleased to award her RBIS & BOS & BB.
