1 Cavaliers of the Northeast 08/08/09, Clinton, NJ Judge: Mandy Mulligan (Nightingale) Jr Puppy D (5) 1. Chadwick Finlaggan (Cipoletti/Eckersley) Blenheim puppy just turned 5 months old. Sweet and pleasing head and expression. Correct round eyes that are nice and dark. Lovely neck into well laid shoulders. Moved with level topline and correct tailset. Rich color and nicely marked. He did not show well today, and needs to practice. I was happy to see that he improved in the ring the following day. Promising puppy. 2. Brookhaven Strategic Alianz of Falling Springs (Curley/Ireland) Lovely ruby boy with a sweet face. I liked the amount of bone this puppy has for it s age at 8 months. Nice shape and good topline on the move. He could use a little more weight to complete the picture. 3. Darane Boys Don t Cry (Kates) Adorable young tri boy with pretty head. Another baby at 5 months that looks to be a promising pup. Moved well and with confidence. Showed the best in the class. 4. Taron Mugsy Malone (Mitchell) Larger black and tan boy that showed very well today. Attractive head, moved well. A little high in the rear at this stage of development. Sr Puppy D (7) 1. Milkeyn Sheer Inspiration (Eckersley) Loved this puppy. A very complete package at just 11 months. He moved and showed with style and confidence. Strongest mover in the class carried a level topline and has correct tail set and carriage. Attractive head with large eyes. Lovely neck and correct shoulder angle. Nice deep chest with plenty of heart room. Well muscled and shown in excellent condition. Best Puppy Dog, Best Sr Puppy, Best Puppy in Show 2. Jayba Pucker Up (Lander) Beautiful richly colored Blenheim puppy also with lovely movement. Sweetest head with wonderful expression. He is short coupled with excellent spring of rib and very well muscled hindquarters. Correct hind angulation, and he moves with drive. Well let down hocks. Being a bit naughty today. It was very close between #1 and #2 for me. 3. Forestcreek Beaux at Valleyriver (Hill) Cute short coupled Blenheim boy that is nicely marked. Well proportioned with short back and good angulation. Sweet face with nice large eyes. Beautiful straight coat. 4. Orchardhill Home By Dark (Sage/Venier) Another nice puppy in a very good class. Really liked his head and expression.

Head shape is lovely with nice eyes and perfect ear set framing her face. Lovely crested neck and well laid shoulders.

He is well marked and has deep color. Also presented nicely with a good coat. 3. Castlekeep Aviator (Torgersen) Handsome Blenheim dog with a nicely shaped head.

Ch Cinderlace Bramble at Jayba, JW (Lander) To me this dog is the epitome of Cavalier breed type. Starting with his gorgeous head, huge dark expressive eyes, correct length of muzzle and ear placement. Going into a lovely crested neck with properly laid back shoulders. His depth of chest is impressive, and he has well sprung ribs. Short in the loin, level topline. He had the strongest rear of the day with well muscled hindquarters that took him around the ring with drive. He moves and shows with such confidence holding his head up as the worthy champion he is.
