3 Welcome The Committee of Management of the Airedale Terrier Club of Victoria Inc. extends a warm welcome to Judges, Exhibitors, Officials and Visitors to our th Annual Championship Show. Although this is the 75th Annual Show, the ATCV Inc. has held more than 75 Championship Shows. In some years additional Championship Shows (Floaters) have been held when an International Airedale Terrier Specialist has been visiting Victoria and agreed and been given approval to judge a show for our Club. The ATCV, now in its 83rd year, did not hold its own Championship Shows in the first few years after it was formed, the first Championship Show being held in During WW2, there were some years in which a Combined Clubs Show was held rather than individual Club shows. There have also been other years when shows were not held for various reasons, hence the difference in years versus shows. We are proud to be the second oldest Breed Club in Victoria and possibly Australia having been established in August 1929 and run continuously since that time. We look forward to the continued success of the Airedale Terrier Club of Victoria Inc. in the years to come. We thank everyone who has assisted in the running of this show today and hope everyone has an enjoyable and successful day.

5 Lorna Schuster Best in Show Trophy Presented at ATCV Championship Shows from 2012 L o r n a Schuster (nee Green) acquired her first Airedale Terrier as a young girl and joined the ATCV in She b e g a n breeding under the Hillmere prefix in Over the years Lorna imported six Airedales from the UK, most in partnership with other breeders, all of which made a significant contribution to our breed. Lorna became Secretary of the ATCV while still a teenager at school. She held this position for many years until she and her husband Clive moved to WA in 1954 at which time her contribution to both the Club and the breed was recognised by the Airedale Terrier Club of Victoria and she was appointed as the first Life Member of the club. On her return to Melbourne in the early 1960 s Lorna again became active in Club affairs and over her time in the Club occupied nearly every official position and she continued to serve regularly on the Committee until the mid 1990 s. In 1970 Lorna trained the first Terrier bitch in Victoria to gain a Companion Dog title Ch. Hillmere Calypso CD and a long line of Hillmere obedience title holders followed. Lorna s interest in Obedience continued over the years and it was through her enthusiasm and encouragement that the ATCV introduced Restricted Obedience Trials on a regular basis throughout the 1980 s and 90 s. Lorna bred innumerable Hillmere Champions (her first Ch. Hillmere Valiant in 1945), provided foundation stock for many of the old established kennels in Australia and New Zealand and won many Club Specialities, Royal Challenges and Best in Show (All Breeds) awards over the years, as well as all of the Club trophies many times over. Lorna held the unique honour of being Patroness of each of the affiliated Clubs in Australasia Victoria, New South Wales and New Zealand. Lorna Schuster s influence on the Airedale Terrier world was immense over the years, made all the more admirable by her unselfish and untiring efforts for the good of the breed as a whole. Bill Brilliant Trophy for Best Opposite Sex in Show Bill Brilliant commenced his long and successful career in the Dog World with the purchase of an Airedale bitch in His association with dogs included breeding, exhibiting, importing, judging and administration. His first imported dog was Orator in the mid 1920 s followed by Wrose Palm, Fernbank Rascal, Princehill Alpha and his last Riverina Gulliver in the mid 1950 s. Stoneleigh his own kennel prefix became well known for quality Airedale Terriers such as Stonleigh Stormer, Ch. Stonleigh Solario (the first Airedale to win Best Dog in Show at the Melbourne Royal Show in 1934), Ch. Stoneleigh Sapper, Ch. Stoneleigh Safegaurd and Ch. Stoneleigh Supreme. Bill was involved in the formation of both the Airedale Terrier Club of Victoria in 1929 and the Sporting Terrier Club of Victoria. He was President of the Victorian Poultry and Kennel Club from 1948 to 1962, was appointed to the Committee of the Kennel Control Council in 1947 and was an All-Breeds judge from 1956 to He was recognized as an authority on the Terrier breeds and filled many important judging appointments. He judged our Championship Shows in 1947, 1949 and His contribution to the dog world was recognized by Life Membership of the Airedale Terrier Club of Victoria in 1964, Sporting Terrier Club of Victoria and the Victorian Poultry and Kennel Club. He was made a Life Member of the KCC in 1978 and was Patron of both the ATCV and the ATANSW. Bill celebrated his 100th birthday on 3 August Bill Brilliant contributed much to our Club, our breed and the Dog World generally and holds a unique place in Airedale Terrier History. Lorna passed away in May 2000 aged 88.

6 Judge s Profile: Susan Kealy (Kealdale Airedale Terriers Ireland) I have been involved in the dog show scene in Ireland since 1975, exhibiting, breeding, judging and in administration. I have bred Airedale Terriers and Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers, making up numerous champions. I exhibited an Irish Terrier and a Weimaraner also. I have been an active committee member of The Irish Terrier Club, The Irish Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Club, The Irish Breeds Society and long-term Member of Airedale Terrier Club for which I have been Secretary and also Breed Representative on the Governing Body of the Irish Kennel Club since I have been an Irish Kennel Club director since 1998 and am currently in my second year as Chairman. I first judged Airedales in 1982 and now judge several Breeds and Groups and Best in Show, both in Ireland and overseas. I have been so lucky to have been invited to judge in many countries: Germany, France, Russia, Norway, Sweden, Holland, Belgium, Finland, Latvia, South Africa, U.K., Canada, New Zealand and Australia. I appreciate the opportunity to visit so many different places and make so many friends. I award CCs in Britain in Airedales and Soft coated Wheaten Terriers and was greatly honoured to be invited to judge Airedales at the Breed special in Sweden in conjunction with the World Show Greta Florence Brace Cup Greta Florence bought her first Airedale Terrier in 1926 as a guard and house dog. The first Millswyn litter was born in 1930 and produced Ch. Millswyn Queen Bee and she was followed by a long line of Champions. Over the years Mrs Florence took an active part in Airedale Terrier Club activities, she was always ready and willing to help new members. She was honoured with Life Membership of the ATCV in The Greta Florence Brace Cup was donated to the ATCV to be awarded for the Best Brace at our Championship Shows from Our thanks go to Peter & Jan Hatton for having the Greta Florence Cup resilvered and to Peter for making a new base for the cup.

7 VINTAGE - FOR EXHIBITION ONLY 27. G. Cochrane s Ch. Airebury Limited Edition (Merlin) w. 8/11/99 Br. Exh. S. Gr Ch Oldiron Just Awesome Dam: Ch Seaire Lily Bell Merlin was one of the most consistently winning Airedale Terriers in Victoria in the early 2000 s. He excels in Airedale type, temperament, coat, colour and movement. Local & International judges have commented on his shortness of back, movement and showmanship. Highlights of his show career include: Best Puppy in Group Royal Melbourne Show 2000 Finalist Sporting Terrier Club Vic Top Terrier Competition 2001 Best Exhibit In Show (all Breeds) from Puppy Class under International 10 months old Multiple Best Exhibit in Show and Runner Up Best In Show (all breeds) awards under local and international judges Many Best in Show Class awards (Specialist & all breeds) from Puppy, Junior, Intermediate, Australian Bred classes Numerous Best In Group & Runner Up in Group and class in group awards Over 800 challenge points Merlin s days now are spent lazing around, being thoroughly spoilt and keeping an eye on his girls!! 28. M. Downie s Jutta Jumbuck Of My Mind w. 25/8/2000 Br. B. Meyer S. Ger. Ch. Karlo Von Der Schwarzen Kuhle Schii D. Esther of My Mind We were fortunate when we bought Jutta that Frau Meyer allowed us to name her with the proviso that it must begin with J which is how we arrived at Jutta after my good friend and Jumbuck to indicate our connection with Australia. Jutta started travelling at an early age spending her first Christmas in Italy. (She has been to many European countries travelling by car, train, ferry and plane.) She was a great traveller who would happily sit for hours looking out the back window of the car. (Unfortunately she wasn t so good at staying in her room as she had very quickly learnt how to open doors. On more than one occasion she d escape and come creeping down the stairs to greet us.) In restaurants Jutta would happily sit under the table (as is the custom for dogs in Europe) a habit which she still has. It is usual for the waitress to bring out a bowl of water for her before serving us. Jutta s show career was short as she didn t enjoy the ring. (You will probably see this today.) Her highest achievement was second in a junior class at the 2002 National Dutch Airedale show. Jutta came home with us in 2003 and had a litter of nine in Her daughter (Wuschel) also had a litter of nine in I have many happy memories of Jutta as a puppy. Her first friends were some whippets but her best friend in Germany was Tayla a standard poodle from Canada. Jutta loved to run and enjoyed the freedom of the open fields of our village. She has always loved water and would go for a dip in the creek even when there was snow on the ground. Snow bought her much enjoyment. It was a delight to see her flying around a field of virgin snow leaving her footprints everywhere. Jutta s first and best friend in Australia is Jessie (an Airedale) who we met on our first walk at Ruffey Park where Jutta would always have her dip in the lake. Jutta has a lovely nature and happily allowed Jessie to meet her pups. She also took a grandmotherly interest In Wuschel s litter and enjoyed playing with them. Jutta is now the matriarch who spends a lot of her day sleeping. However, she does enjoy her garden and will happily sit out there contemplating or simply chewing a bone.
