Peter Mycroft
My First Memory of dobes is driving Pete Brown (Adoradobe) to Kent in 1979 to collect his first dobermann pups from the Lonorah's Kennel. I met Sue in 1981 and it was from Pete Brown that we had our first Dobe. She was Adoradobe The Uptown Girl and she was the beginning of our love affair with the Dobermann and all that comes with them!
Over the years I have not only shown our own dogs but also several dogs for other people. I campaigned and made up Ch Roedeane Adelheid, showed Ch Sallate Gember and took his qualifying CC under the late Fiona Field and I also took several CC's with Ch Swnydwr Stormbearer, his last one when he was nearly 9 years old.
Travelling to Europe with Graham Hunt I became increasingly interested in the European Dobe which obviously features quite strongly in our breeding programme today.
I first judged Dobes in 1990 and awarded tickets for the first time at the SWDC Champ show in November 2009. I would like to thank you for your entry today and look forward to judging your dogs.

I began exhibiting in 1978. My prefix is ' TUWOS '
I have bred or owned countless Irish Champions including at least six 'pup of the year qualifiers', I have also handled many more to their titles as well as Champ, group and Best in Show winners.
One of my early Champions was Irish Ch Shutz Ophilia JW, who was the first Dobermann owned in Ireland to win a CC on the mainland UK.
Our latest All Breed Best in Show winner is 'Tuwos Fernando Torres' son of our Ch/Irish Ch Aritaur Hipnotique who currently is the breed's bitch record holder with 28 CC's.

Thank you to the committee of The Dobermann Club for the invitation to judge bitches at their championship show. My co-judge Mr Pete Mycroft and I were in complete agreement on our joint decisions.
DCC & B.I.S Amazon El Torro.
BCC & R.B.I.S Jaegerson Hot Gossip.
B.P.I.S Jojavik Honeytrap.
B.V.I.S Miss Peggy Sue at Puckaman
VB (7,2) 1st Clements Miss Peggy Sue at Puckaman, 7yr Blk/R to my eye she was a clear winner in this well filled class. A square well bodied, standard sized bitch of good type and possessing very sound, true movement, her head was of good length and well filled long, clean neck, leading into correct shoulders, tight elbows and straight, slightly sloping topline, handled sympathetically to get the best out of her. B.V.I.S.
2nd Merchants Jenasti Jinks Bond Girl at Trivataires Shcm 7 1/2 yrs another similar bitch of good make and shape, didn't have as good head piece as first nor topline but moved as well as any of the younger entry.
3rd Edgeler's Doberlane Siren Ve.
MPB (4,1) 1st Francis & Ingrams Jojavik Honeytrap, Very nice square bodied brown, excellent head properties, long clean neck, decent shoulders but short in upperarm which left her a bit loose in front at this time in her development. She has a very good topline and correct rear angles. A real show off who had quality and substance. 2nd Skelton & Lattarullo's Jojavik Bella Mafia, Blk/R litter sister to first. She has similar properties, well balanced and sound in body and movement, lost out to her sibling on lack of crisp outline and not so strong in underjaw.
3rd Cox & Chamber's Martonburgs Glamour Puss.
PB (3,1) 1st Evan & Thompson's Amazon Stormy Romance, Although only 7 months old in this class, her head is of medium length and needs to develop in underjaw, this puppy was square, with good shoulder and upper-arm correct angulation to rear although still needs time to muscle and tighten her movement. 2nd Cox & Chambers, Martonburg Margaretta, a more developed bitch than first but not so good in upperarm she has a decent head dark eye, needs to develop more underjaw decent topline could move with more vigour.
3rd Cotterall's Pompie Busy Being Fabulous
JB (8,1) 1st Waldies, Coltragen Prada at Vonedstram Blk/R strong girl of correct type. Possesses an excellent head, correct planes and of good length one of the few with strong underjaw, strong long clean neck, shoulders could be cleaner into topline, but had correct upperarm and depth of brisket, correct bone and moved well enough to win a strong class. 2nd Smith's Remesca What Eva, Blk/R this bitch was very true in movement, she has a good head piece and correct topline, elegant without being fine boned, won novice where she relaxed and looked better.
3rd Quigley's Swnydwr Done N Dusted
YB (2) 1st King's Nerak Sweepstake, blk/r of correct type, decent head of good length, could be stronger in underjaw, her angulation fore & aft could be better but overall a balanced bitch with good topline and sound movement.
2nd Weatherall's Kodam Brizo sails On Through, Brn/r of decent make and shape, moved true but lacked quality of first.
NB (5) 1st Remesca What Eva
2nd Jojavik Honeytrap
3rd Amazon Stormy Romance
UGB (1) Cox & Chambers Martonburgs Star of India, 3yr Blk/R, a well made bitch who moved soundly, head of good length and correct planes, good expression square and balanced.
PGB (13,4) 1st Burnet/Hall/Mycrofts Supetas Feels Like Heaven To Zuffenhauzen, a 2yr Blk/R overall a very Impressive, square and standard sized female, Head of good length and shape, could have stronger underjaw, correct upperarm giving correct sternum, ex topline, correct rear and moved true with good drive and reach.
2nd Wedgburys Demorogothigals Allure, A bitch of similar stamp who possesses a correct long head with good underjaw square and well balanced, moved true and with vigour. 3rd Cox's Zeloviak Inquistion JW
LB (9,1) 1st Everley's Manzart Naughty Nora, 3yr blk/r, super head correct strength and length, correct eye shape and of good colour, long clean neck, correct shoulder placement, tight elbows, good topline but breaks slightly after withers, best of backends, well muscled and correct rotary hind movement, well deserved RCC a close call to a bitch in my opinion just had a cleaner topline today.
2nd Milne & Williams Leibwache Sunset Stripper, 3yr Brwn/r, similar make to first a little more of her, judged her before and like her, today she was a little sluggish on the move, the weather did not help but N.Nora excelled in movement.
3rd Evan's Amazon Sydique
OB(10,2) 1st James Jaegerson Hop Gossip, Both 1st and 2nd in this ex class had similar attributes and both are slightly longer in loin than I like, but this girl had a ex head of correct length, correct planes, medium coloured eye, strong underjaw, long clean neck leading into correct well laid back shoulders, correct upper arm length and placement moved with drive and going around when settled won this class and CC.
2nd Gallagher's Izralight New Year Spirit ShCM, as I said previously similar stamp to first, lost on front movement coming towards but an ex bitch of correct type and balance. 3rd Williams Ch Livikee Moulin Rouge ScHM.
