Critique

Eastern Counties CKCS Society

Sunday 21 September 2003

The invitation to judge your open show was most appreciated. The committee was helpful and welcoming, the exhibitors were very kind and sporting. My sincere thank you to everyone. It's been about three years since I last visited the UK. I found the cavaliers to be lovely and the quality high. Lovely heads with large, round dark eyes were (once again) plentiful. My ideal Cavalier is a small (toy) spaniel with a graceful, elegant, outline. To achieve that one needs a moderate neck flowing into well laid shoulders continuing on to a level back with the tail as a natural extension of the back.

Movement should be free and easy with a level top line and a correct tail set with the tail carried straight off the back and wagging. Glamour is as much about outline and carriage as it is about coat, perhaps more. A good length of neck on well laid shoulders goes far to achieve the elegance our breed should possess. I found the entry to have many Cavaliers that fit the bill. The quality was excellent.
