FCRSA's National Specialty, York, PA, May 21-May 25, 2018 - There were 588 dogs at the Specialty with a total of 873 entries plus 208 Rally entries. Pixie, Maeve and I had a wonderful time and I could not be any prouder of my girls. Judges' comments -
Sweepstakes Veteran 9-11 Year Bitches (Judge: Liz Saunders) 1st Place: Ch Matlaras Estella CD (Pixie) This bitch is oozing with breed type and was a strong contender for Best in Sweeps. Exquisite one-piece head with a lovely soft expression. Ears a little on the larger size. Excellent depth and length of rib cage and beautifully constructed front with super forechest. Good rear that helped to drive her around the ring. Hocks close to the ground. Good feet, super topline for her age which held up well on the move. Silhouette on the move was breathtaking. She was carrying a lot of coat that made her look a bit shorter on leg than she actually is. Shown to perfection. Didn’t show quite as well in best in sweeps as she did in her class.
Veteran 9-11 Year Bitches (Judge: James Irvine) 2nd Place: Ch Matlaras Estella CD (Pixie) Had depth of body, strong level back, pasterns could be a shade tighter. In profuse dense coat. One of the best heads in this class being clean and nicely balanced. Free moving bitch who covered the ground well.
Sweepstakes Junior 15-18 Month Bitches (Judge: Liz Saunders) 4th Place: Fieldday Wishgranter CD (Maeve) Super liver bitch. Oozing with personality and shown to perfection. I loved this bitch's head and expression. Coat a lighter liver colour than some. Good shoulder, excellent forechest and angle of upper arm. Good feet. I just wish there was a smoother gradation between her neck and shoulders - the transition is a little abrupt at this time compagred to my 1-3 places. Her front movement coming towards me was not as strong as my 1-3 choices at this time.
Regular Class 15-18 Month Bitches (Judge: James Irvine) 2nd Place: Fieldday Wishgranter CD (Maeve) Not a big bitch, nice shade of liver, pleasing bone, firm toppling. Typical head, eye could be a shade darker. Not the reach of neck than 1. Happy on the move and placed 2nd in this class due to extremely good movement.
Fieldday Limelight (Chaplin) took a Group 3rd on his very first show on April 15th at the Club canin de l'Estrie!!!

Fieldday Mr. Incredible TD (Findus) took part in an intensive 10-day training session with the Search and Rescue Dog Association of Alberta. His owner, Nicole Haueisen, wrote: ... the first two days were pretty hard for him 'cause he never took a break while waiting his turn but he then got used to sleeping anywhere whenever he got the chance. He has a lot of drive for disaster search and also for cadaver. We could not do a lot of water search because of the weather but when we did, he loved to jump from the boat into the water. His training also took him to a mall for socialization, elevators and stairs, different surfaces and his obedience was put to the test when he had to stay still by a rollercoaster". What incredible work for a 6-month old puppy. All this work paid off as a month later, Findus had a Tracking title (TD).
Ch Fieldday Aston Martin (Flash) finished his Canadian Championship and took a Group 4. Congratulations to owner Hélène Beaupré-Picard.
