IRISH SETTER CLUB OF VICTORIA’S 47th CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW
MRS DEBBIE DAVIS CRITIQUE
I would like to thank the club for inviting me to judge your Specialty. I have always admired the Australian Irish Setters and was so excited when I got the invitation to come to Australia to do your Specialty, which enabled me to see them in person.
I loved my line-up of dogs and bitches and thank the membership for supporting the show. I wish everyone the best of luck with your baby puppies that I got to judge since they are your future stars. I look forward to seeing how my Challenge Dog and Challenge Bitch do in the future. I feel they both will have a great show career coming their way.
Again, thank you for your hospitality and friendship.
Debbie Davis

Baby Puppy Dog
What a pleasure to judge puppies under 6 months old, they were lovely.
1 Cueunaich Sherlock Holmes (Delmenico)
Balanced puppy with good front and rear assembly, moves with a strong top line with good reach and drive. Would like a little more stop which may come with age.
2 Eireannmada Rockstar (Browne)
Very similar in type of the 1st puppy, a little shorter in rib cage than the 1st, balanced moving. Prefer the tail set and tail carriage of 1st.
3 Pendoric Smoke N Fire (Hearn)
Has begun to go up on leg and not at the same stage of development as the 1st & 2nd. Has a nice front and rear assembly.
Minor Puppy Dog
Withdrawn – Pendoric Foggy Perfection (Lindberg)
Puppy Dog
1 Eireannmada Kingford Smith (Browne)
A single entry in this class. A tall, dark young man with a nice head. I would like to see more angle front and rear, but this may change with time.
Junior Dog
1 Cairncross Concierge With Tullane (Paine)
A single entry in this class. A nice dog with a good front assembly with a wonderful head with a correct eye. Would like a little more drive in the rear when moving.
Intermediate Dog
1 Ch Pendoric Red N Ragin (Fry)
A well-balanced dog with good front and rear assembly and forechest. Head planes are very nice with good depth of muzzle. Moves very well with a good reach and drive. The tail carriage distracted from otherwise a pleasing picture.
2 Ch Brodruggan Perfect Encor (Bird)
Nice dark dog with front and rear angulation a little less than the 1st place dog. Could use a little more length in ribcage. Carries a nice topline and moved efficiently.
3 Tahtan Cutting Edge (Hunt/Finlaison)
Lovely head with a good neck to shoulder. I preferred the proportion within the body of the 1st & 2nd dogs.
Australian Bred Dog
1 Brodruggan Rogue Trader (Stewart)
Nicely balanced dog with good forechest, nice neck to shoulder and topline. Would like to see a more almond shaped eye, which is critical in the expression of the irish setter. Movement was good, would like a little more muscling in rear.
2 Ch Eireannmada Riverdance (Fall/Browne)
Nicely balanced dog. Well presented. The steep croup detracted from an overall picture of the dog. Moved well – again more muscling in the rear will help with the overall picture.
Open Dog
1 Gr Ch Tullane Tempranillo (Paine)
A dark masculine dog in good show condition. Well balanced, good forechest with balanced front and rear assembly. Lovely head that is long and lean with good planes. His long neck sets well into the shoulders and has well sprung ribs. Moves very effortlessly with great reach and drive. He is a very stand out dog. Well deserved of the Dog Challenge.
2 Ch Brodruggan Temptation (Stewart)
A handsome dog, with very good balance. Also has a nice length of neck that sets well into the shoulders. I prefer the length of rib cage on the 1st dog. In movement he did not cover as much ground as 1st place dog.
3 Aust & NZ Ch Setterlands Tamburello at Pendoric (Hearn/Heskett)
A nice dog, with good front assembly, with good forechest. Moved nicely around the ring. I preferred the overall balance of my 1st and 2nd place dogs.
Veteran Dog (7-10 years)
1 Ch Glengray Wyndchymer (Gray)
A wonderful gray face. Looked like he was enjoying the dog. Pretty head with good planes. Nicely balanced dog with good front and rear assembly. Used his legs well when going around the ring.
Veteran Dog (over 10 years)
1 Ch Daisymont Boston Redsox (Daisymont Kennels)
A wonderful veteran who looks great for his age. Nice long lean head with a good front assembly. Was wonderful to watch going around the ring.
The dog challenge class assembled and it was a lovely lineup. My Challenge Dog was a standout and it went to my Open Dog with my Reserve Dog to my Intermediate Dog.
Dog Challenge : Gr Ch Tullane Tempranillo (Paine)
Reserve Dog Challenge : Ch Pendoric Red N Ragin (Fry)

Baby Puppy Bitch
What a wonderful group of little girls, so mature for their age and lovely to go over.
1 Eireannmada Queen of Rock (Browne)
A wonderful puppy with good bone, lovely headpiece and a soft expression. The length of neck flows smoothly into her shoulders. Nice balanced puppy with correct front and rear assembly and covers the ground well with lots of confidence in the ring.
2 Eireannmada Rock N Robin (Browne)
A lovely head with good planes and expression. Prefer the bone and length of body of the 1st puppy. The neck also fits nicely into the shoulders, as the 1st puppy. Good front and rear assembly and also moves nicely, with confidence in the ring.
3 Eireannmada Rock Me (Browne)
Has begun to come up on leg more than the 1st and 2nd place puppies. As a pretty head and is also nice in length of neck, which fits well into the shoulders. Prefer the depth of stifle on the 1st and 2nd place puppies.
Minor Puppy Bitch
1 Eireannmada Joie De Vivre (Robinson/Browne)
An elegant puppy with good bone, a pretty long lean head with a soft expression and good planes. The neck flows nicely into the shoulders with good depth of chest and a nice long ribcage. Her front and rear assembly are balanced which makes her move effortlessly around the ring covering lots of ground. She gives you the overall picture of balance. Would take her home in a heartbeat. Well deserved of the Challenge Bitch.
2 Eireannmada Fleur De Lis (Browne)
Another beautiful puppy with a nice head with a soft expression and is good neck to shoulder. Good front and rear assembly and moves with coverage of ground. I preferred the proportion within the body of the 1st bitch.
3 Eireannmada Alouetta (Browne/Wheatley)
A nice dark puppy that has began to come up on leg more than the 1st & 2nd puppies. She has pretty head, with good length of neck that fits well into the shoulders. Prefer the length of body of the 1& 2. Carries herself very well around the ring with purpose.
Puppy Bitch
1 Eireannmada Amelia Earhart (Browne)
Nice puppy with a lovely head and good topline. She has a lovely front assembly, with good forechest. The depth of stifle takes away overall picture of balance.
Junior Bitch
1 Cairncross Flirting with Tullane (Paine)
Pretty bitch that has a good front assembly and forechest. Has a pretty head, with a nice expression, and a long neck that fits well into her shoulders. Good depth of chest with elbows well under her. Her body proportions brought her rear too far under her in the move, which did not let her have the free and easy stride I would prefer.
2 Nauvoo at Sienna (Scott/Atkinson)
Nice bitch, good bone, with a long neck that fits well into the shoulders. I prefer the overall picture of the 1st bitch.
3 Ornac R U Talkn to Me (Underwood)
Nice bitch with a lovely head that enjoyed her day in the ring.
Intermediate Bitch
1 Ch Brodruggan Dancing Doll (Sullivan)
A lovely bitch with good type. Has a nice front assembly and rib spring. The neck fits nicely into the shoulders and moves nicely, covering ground well around the ring.
2 Ch Rhiannon Irish Treasure (Scott)
A nice bitch with a good head and pretty expression. When moving she covers ground well. Prefer the front assembly and rib spring of the 1st bitch.
3 Ch Ornac Behold N It Now (Underwood)
A different style bitch with a nice head and expression. Preferred the proportions within the body of the 1st & 2nd bitch.
Australian Bred Bitch
1 Ch Eireannmada Song O Praise (Browne)
A balanced lovely bitch with good substance. Has a lovely head with a soft expression. Has a significant forechest and front assembly & moves nicely on her legs covering the ground well.
2 Ch Pendoric Perfect Angel (Hearn/Baker)
A nice bitch, more up on leg than the 1st place bitch. Has a nice topline and tail set. Prefer the upper arm length of the 1st bitch. Moved nicely.
3 Ch Brodruggan Iridescence (Bird)
Taken by her head – nice expression with good planes. Preferred the proportions within the body of the 1st and 2nd place bitches.
Open Bitch
1 Ch Rhiannon Resplendence (Scott)
An elegant bitch, with a pretty head with good planes. Would like to see a more almond shaped eye which is critical in the expression of the irish setter. Has a good front assembly with good depth of chest and rib spring. Neck fits nicely into the shoulders. Nice topline and tail set, with good rear assembly. She moves well around the ring covering ground well.
2 Ch Tahtan Forbiden Fruit (Finlaison)
A pretty bitch with nice long neck that fits nicely into the shoulders. Good front and rear assembly. Prefer the head and length of body of the 1st bitch. She moves nicely around the ring covering ground well.
3 Ch Pendoric Fire Anythyme (Hearn)
Nice bitch with a pretty head and eye. Has a good front assembly with good shoulder layback. Good rear assembly and moves well around the ring. Prefer the proportions within the body of the 1st and 2nd bitch.
Veteran Bitch (7-10 years)
1 Ch Eireannmada Marie Claire (Browne)
This wonderful old face melted my heart, has a beautiful head and good planes with a soft expression. She has a wonderful front and rear assembly. Is smooth neck to shoulder and still moves well around the ring.
2 Ch Ornac Oops Forda Gossips ET (Underwood)
Has a pretty head with a lovely old expression. Nice front assembly. Preferred the overall balance of the 1st bitch.
The Challenge class came in and it was lovely lineup and I was pleased with my picks.
On the go around my eye went to the Open Bitch and the Minor Puppy. My decision for the Challenge Bitch came down to first type and second soundness in movement.
I picked the Minor Puppy because of her beautiful type, ground covering movement, strong topline and soundness on her down and back and Reserve Challenge Bitch went to my Open Bitch.
