Title: Dru's first right up. :0)
Post by: 6thSense on January 30, 2011, 09:10:37 PM
Hope this is the right place to post this, but have just been given this right up for my new boy Dru from his 2nd show at Southampton and was sooo pleased with it I just had to share.  :D

‎1st & BP -Pheasant's Molkara Druid's Quest

A real quality baby who, with maturity, will trouble the best. He won this class on his better (shorter) length of body and superior front assembly. Gorgeous head, excels in profile and his movement, though ebullient in parts, was very sound. Expertly handled.

Congrats on a lovely write up. I wish i'd known about a show in southampton as i'd of gone along to have a look as only up the road really. Where do you find out about shows and where they are?

Excellent right up. I remember my Amber's first one. Beautiful girl, pity she wasn't handled at her best!!!!
Unfortunately they were right.

He is a lovely boy.

Fantastic write up :luv: :luv:

For anybody who also didnt know the meaning of 'ebulliant'..... "Overflowing with enthusiasm or excitement; high-spirited" i think 'ebuillant' should be the cocker's trademark word ;) :005:

Was it perhaps in Our Dogs, we have Dog World and have not seen any critiques from the Southampton show there yet?

No shel it was kindly posted on my FB wall for me. What service.  :shades: :005: I had stated on a previous status that I don't yet get DW or OD regularly. I really should I know, but didn't want to miss it. Very kind for it to be posted for me.  :D I'm guessing that means they must be on there way in the paper, but not sure sorry.

Thanks guys. I am understandably over the moon with this.

Happygal there is a sticky on here with cocker show dates. Otherwise Fossedata is very good.

Awww, well done! I'm amazed at the type of English used there! When I was doing my judging course I had a good pour through Our Dogs and read the critiques and was quite shocked at the poor use of English!! Obviously a judge wishing to make full use of the English dictionary!

I know. I think it's really nice and I do think 'ebullient' describes Dru down to a T.  ;) I may even have to get him a T-shirt with it printed on.  :shades: :011:

Right if this works this should be a link to some pics I've posted on the photo board of Dru at yesterdays show.  ;)

A lovely Critique for you & Dru  . . . . .
I think "ebullient" sums up what a cocker puppy should be  ;)
Well done Sarah & Dru!!!!

well done to both of you  :D :luv:
I agree the ''ebullient'' is a perfect word for describing a cocker pup (I can say that after looking the word up)  ph34r

Not commenting on the senior moment Wendy.  :shades: :005: But yes the judge is one of my hundreds of FB friends not that I realised I have so many,  ph34r but thought it was really nice of her to do that for me as I may have missed it otherwise and I really wouldn't have wanted to miss that.
