| Bob Heal from Canada, who I am sure everyone
knows, judged our Breed at Crufts in March. He drew the
most astounding entry of 280 dogs. There were 29 dogs
entered in Open Dog, 12 of them were champions. The
winner of this class was Yacanto Dancing Wolf and he went
on to win the Challenge Certificate. He was bred by Mr.
& Mrs. Bousfield and Miss Hirst. The Reserve Dog
Challenge Certificate was Baadswood Proud Son who won the
Post Graduate and Limit Class. He was bred by Mr. &
Mrs. Betts and owned by Mrs. Campbell. |
 ~ Cruft's 98 ~ Bitch Challenge Certificate Winner (L) Mohos Scarlet Serenade Dog Challenge Certificate Winner (R) Yacanto Dancing Wolf |
| There were 20 bitches
entered in Open Bitch, 8 of them were champions. The
class was won by my Walkmyll Diorissimo. The Bitch
Challenge Certificate was the winner of Special Yearling,
Mohos Scarlet Serenade, bred and owned by Mrs. Debbie
Arbery. She was also Best of Breed. The Reserve Bitch
Challenge Certificate winner was the winner of Junior,
Mrs. Avril Thorndyke’s Tyak Time Flies By Taranmur,
bred by Mr. & Mrs. Callan. This was the largest entry
I had ever known for Crufts, but unfortunately many of
the dog exhibitors missed their classes as the M42 (one
of the main approaches to the venue) was closed owning to
an accident. The journey for ourselves would normally
take about 40 minutes, but it took us 3 hours. |

 Tymonell Tradition |
On the 11th of April I judged dogs for the
Scottish Great Dane Club Championship Show. My Co-Judge
was Mrs. Audrey Farquhar. In Minor Puppy Dog (6-9 months)
I gave Mrs. Sheila Lakeland’s Tymonell Tradition
this class and in Puppy Dog (9-12 months), I chose Mrs.
Di Duncalf’s Dainwood Sakima. Mrs. Farquhar and
myself both agreed Dainwood Sakima to be Best Puppy In
Show. My Dog Challenge Certificate winner came from the Limit Class, Mr. Lawrence Morgan-Evans brindle Clausentum Tyson At Vanmore. This was his first Challenge Certificate. |
| My Reserve Challenge Certificate winner won
the Open Class and he was Mrs. Mulholland’s Garsak
Sir Jordan, handled by his breeder, Mr. Gary Hooker. Mrs. Audrey Farquhar’s
Bitch Challenge Certificate winner won Post Graduate and
she was Mrs. Jackie Wood’s Dainwood Wicked Sensation
and her Reserve Challenge Certificate winner was Mrs.
Joyce’s Turlum Top Notch. |

| After much deliberating, Sue chose the
brindle dog, Clausentum Tyson At Vanmore, as Best In
Show. Several of us Brits are hoping to get to the National Specialty in Texas in October. Hopefully see you all there. Freda |
