I would like to thank the Show Committee and members of the Pembroke Welsh Corgi Club of the Garden State for inviting me to judge in place of Alan Matthews. The weather was perfect. The hospitality was outstanding. The boat house on the lake where the dinner was held not only had wonderful views of boats and sculls passing by but served good cuisine as well. It was the perfect setting for relaxing and being with corgi friends. 

Alan again sends along his regrets and wishes he could have been there. You just can’t stop Mother Nature when she blows her top!!! 

Thank you, again!

—Donna Francis

1. KAYBE CORGARD DOUBLE DECKER (Ch. Wanderpond Cooperstown x Ch. Corgard Kaybe Memories Forever) Breeders: S. Viebrock & K. Boll & M. Pohl. Owners: Sherryn Viebrock & Kandy Boll. A well made R & W youngster with correct type and size. He was very sound on the move. I was pleased to reward him RESERVE WINNERS DOG.

PUPPY 9 MONTHS AND UNDER 12 MONTHS, DOGS (4 exhibited)

1. BRUMBAER’S TO DIE FOR (Ch. Happiharbor Saddle Lane Ty x Brumbaers Hollywood Premier) Breeders/Owners: Susan King & Karen Fruhmann. This young R&W dog has lovely type and outline. He was in great condition. He is lacking in front angulation which makes for a short choppy gait. 
2. FAIRYSTEED BOJOJAMILE SPECTACULAR BID (Ch. Sandfox Medaglia D’Oro x Fairysteed Bojojamile Billy Tea) Breeders/Owners: Karen Gunzel & V. J. Hutton. This R&W boy left his coat at home. He has a good outline, He wasn’t much for gaiting on the day. Likes to look up at his mom which throws his front all over. I preferred the head and outline of #1 on the day. 
3. FOXTALE’S DON’T GO BREAKING MY HEART (Ch. Starlite Foxtale Twist of Fate x Foxtale Songbird) Breeder/Owner: Virginia C. Fitzgerald. Shorter upper arm and not as sound in side movement.

Handsome tri with good proportions and pretty head, good feet and bone. He moves well from the side with good reach. His rear movement coming and going away wasn’t the best but over all he had lovely type and balance. I was pleased to award him WINNERS DOG 
2. HERONSWAY HISTORY BUFF (Ch. Ryslip History Boy x Ch. Heronsway Circus Circus) Breeder: Anne Bowes. Owners: Patti Owens & Sylvia Nolan. This young R&W moved with a level topline. He had a shorter rib length than I prefer. Good eye and pigment. 
3. DRAGONJOY LIONHEART(Dragonheart x Dragonjoy Endless Emotion) Breeders: C. Ceredi & M. Farnedi. Owner: Roberta M. Lord. Tri with a handsome head but he is higher on leg and doesn’t have the rib length of the others. Choppy on the move.

He has a shorter back and long hocks which gives him the appearance of being high on leg and not as balanced in profile.

2. MYSTICAL TORCH RUNNER AT BROGAN (Ch. Milestone Regatta x Ch. Mystical Slam Dunk) Breeder: D. Beal. Owner: Mari Carroll & Deborah Beal. R&W dog with an attractive head and good dark pigment. I did not care for his outline (topline). He rises over the loin and drops off with a low croup set giving a roached appearance.
3. CREEKSIDE HARD WORKIN MAN (Aberlee Storm Force x Knightsbridge Picabo Street) Breeders: Michael & Michelle Scott. Owners: Kathleen S. Norcia & Michelle Scott. R&W boy with potential but very over weight and not the best trained. This is a sound dog. He just needs conditioning.

I would like to thank the Garden State club for inviting me to judge your Sweepstakes and many thanks to all of the exhibitors for trusting your puppies to me — and on such a windy, windy day. You were all wonderful sports about the “breeze” blowing through the tent and the puppies were troopers. And many thanks to the club for my wonderful judge’s gift — it will be treasured.

Your puppies were presented in wonderful condition and looked lovely. Good fronts and rears were the order of the day, as were nice dark eyes. Feet also looked very nice. There were a couple of even bites — which are allowable — and some beautiful outlines. There was much to like about the entry and my Best in Sweeps and Best of Opposite made me very happy. There were many promising youngsters being shown and I am sure placements will change as these puppies mature. Good luck to all of you.

SWEEPSTAKES PUPPY 6 MONTHS AND UNDER 9 MONTHS, DOGS (1 exhibited)

1. KAYBE CORGARD DOUBLE DECKER (Ch. Wanderpond Cooperstown x Ch. Corgard Kaybe Memories Forever) Breeders: S. Viebrock & K. Boll & M. Pohl. Owners: Sherryn Viebrock & Kandy Boll. Red/white puppy that moved around the ring nicely and with purpose. Good outline and nice structure. His topline was a little rough on the move today.

SWEEPSTAKES PUPPY 9 MONTHS AND UNDER 12 MONTHS, DOGS (3 exhibited)

1. BRUMBAER’S TO DIE FOR (Ch. Happiharbor Saddle Lane Ty x Brumbaers Hollywood Premier) Breeders/Owners: Susan King & Karen Fruhmann. Red/white boy who was clean coming and going. A long dog with a lovely neck, his head is not my favorite, but correct. He carried nice bone and moved around the ring nicely. 
2. BIRCH HILL WYNDTREE T’AINT NO BULLY (Ch. Byendebrok Maplecreek Baccarat, CD MX MXJ Hsas x Birch Hill Christmas Spirit) Breeders: P. & J. Wiedel. Owners: Pati Wiedel & Cindy Platt. Red/white dog that had trouble settling as he went around the ring. Nice puppy with plenty of bone and a pleasant expression. A little wide in front today.
3. FOXTALE’S DON’T GO BREAKING MY HEART (Ch. Starlite Foxtale Twist of Fate x Foxtale Songbird) Breeder/Owner: Virginia C. Fitzgerald. Red-headed tricolor that was clean coming and going. Would like him longer for his height. His topline was a little unsteady today.

SWEEPSTAKES 12 TO 15 MONTH, DOGS (1 exhibited)

1. PEMBURY HOUSE BE STILL MY HEART (Sandfox Skywalker At XIII Maples x Pembury House Premonition) Breeder: S. Eaton. Owners: Paul Cope & Alene Sirott Cope & Sandi Eaton. A good sized red-headed tricolor who, although the only entry in his class, represented his age group nicely. A very nice puppy that moved with reach and drive and actually showed suspension in his sidegait. He was clean coming and going with a topline that held steady. He had a nice masculine head which was very expressive with a dark eye and correct proportions; a lovely arched neck and a beautiful forechest. Happy to make him my BEST of OPPOSITE in SWEEPSTAKES.

SWEEPSTAKES 15 TO 18 MONTH, DOGS (1 exhibited)

1. HERONSWAY HISTORY BUFF (Ch. Ryslip History Boy x Ch. Heronsway Circus Circus) Breeder: Anne Bowes. Owners: Patti Owens & Sylvia Nolan. Red and white puppy that on the day was a bit squarer than I would like. He had an extremely masculine head with beautiful expression.

SWEEPSTAKES PUPPY 6 MONTHS AND UNDER 9 MONTHS, BITCHES (5 exhibited)

This was a lovely, lovely class and I am sure that placements will be traded many times as these youngsters mature.

1. HERONSWAY COCKATOO RIDGE (Ch. Aberlee Phantom Sequence x Ch. Heronsway Heritage Born Free) Breeders: A. Bowes & J. Pilat. Owner: Anne H. Bowes. Light red and white puppy that took my breath away. She came into the ring and proved she owned it. She never put a foot wrong nor let up. She had everything I would want in a bitch. On the table she had the most beautiful outline, beautiful expression, lovely length to height ratio, correct bone for her size. On the move, she covered the ground purposefully with good reach and drive. She was clean coming and going. And, she was the correct size for a bitch her age. Her breeders are to be congratulated on a lovely, lovely bitch. I was very happy to award her BEST in SWEEPSTAKES.
2. PUTNAM SMARTY’S RUN FOR THE ROSES (Ch. Honeyfox Smarty Jones x Putnam Dazzling Encounter) Breeder: J. McCormick. Owner: Mary Ann Jones. Red and white puppy that was a bit longer in muzzle and a little heavier than I like. She covered the ground adequately and showed a nice front coming at me. A quality puppy that, I am sure, will do well.
3. GREENWOODS SANDFOX KARMA (Dwynella Made By Design x Ch. Sandfox Destiny) Breeders: V. Sandage & D. Rodgers. Owners: Deidre Rodgers & Mary Greenwood & Vicki Sandage. Red and white youngster with a lovely outline and nice length. On the day, she had a slight roach in her topline and tended to cross over in the front coming at me. I am sure this will change as she matures. Nice angles and lovely forechest. Another quality puppy.
4. CRYSTAL CINNAMON GIRL (Ch. Tallyrand Our Daily Bread x Crystal American Girl) Breeders/Owners: Karen M. & Samuel Baker. This red/white youngster tended to cross over behind and was a little smaller. Her topline also tended to go down hill which will probably change as she grows on.

SWEEPSTAKES PUPPY 9 MONTHS AND UNDER 12 MONTHS, BITCHES (2 exhibited)

1. BIRCH HILL WYNDTREE NUALA QUEEN OF THE FAIRIES (Ch. Byendebrok Maplecreek Baccarat, CD HSAs MX MXJ x Birch Hill Christmas Spirit) Breeders: P. & J. Wiedel. Owners: Pati Wiedel & Teresa Mulhausen. Red-headed tri puppy that was a little close behind today. This was a very nice puppy that, although she had a shorter upper arm, moved around the ring with reach and drive and covered the ground well. She had a nice front, forechest and neck with lovely length. A beautiful outline. 
2. BIRCH HILL WYNDTREE NATALIE WOULD (Ch. Byendebrok Maplecreek Baccarat, CD HSAs MX MXJ x Birch Hill Christmas Spirit) Breeders: J. & P. Wiedel. Owners: Pati Wiedel & Teresa Mulhausen. I see this red and white puppy is the sister to the first place puppy and there are many similarities. However, this puppy was shorter in length and doesn’t have the beautiful neck of her sister and was a little straighter in front. She also lacked the movement of her sister today.

SWEEPSTAKES 12 TO 15 MONTH, BITCHES (6 exhibited)

1. PEMBURY HOUSE NUTMEG GINGHAM (Ch. Sandfox Skywalker At XIII Maples x Ch. Pembury House Premonition) Breeder/Owner: Sandi Eaton. I see this red-headed tri girl is a sister to my Best of Opposite and there are many similarities. This was a lovely puppy that presented me with a nice outline, expressive face. On the move she exhibited very nice side gait moving with reach and drive and holding her topline around the ring.
2. CORGARD JORASH SWEET LORENA (Ch. Jorash Foxway Graceland x Corgard Caribbean Breeze) Breeders: M. Pohl & K. Boll. Owners: Michele L. Pohl & Ellen Schusterson & Kandy Boll. Red and white youngster who was a nice size but wasn’t overly happy to be here. Lovely long neck. Her front assembly could have been further under her and she didn’t cover the ground as well as the first placed bitch.
3. BROGAN WALBORAH WINSOME (Ch. Jorash Foxway Graceland x Walborah Brogan Whimsey) Breeders/Owners: Mari Carroll & Deborah Harper. Red and white youngster who was presented in lovely condition. I would like a little more eye make-up if I were to be picky. Not as much reach and drive as the first place puppy.
4. CORGARD MAKING MOMENTS INTO MEMORIES (Ch. Lost River Tri’d N Tru Irish Mist x Corgard Memories of A Legacy) Breeders/Owners: Kandy L. Boll & Michele Pohl. Red and white youngster. Lovely movement and she held her topline while going around the ring. She was a little taller than the previous placements and I preferred the heads of the previous youngsters.

SWEEPSTAKES 15 TO 18 MONTH, BITCHES (1 exhibited)

1. HERONSWAY WITNESS TO HISTORY (Ch. Ryslip History Boy x Ch. Heronsway Circus Circus) Breeder/Owner: Anne H. Bowes. This red and white youngster was clean coming and going. Her length to height ratios could have been better and her topline was off on the day.
