After a long weekend in Tromsö that is situated in the Northern part of Norway we can announce that Stanegate Jump For Joy is now Norwegian show champion, Swedish show champion and Finnish show champion!
”2.5 years, excellent type, size and proportions, good width in the skull, could have had a little more stop, sufficient power in the muzzle, still bright eyes, excellent neck, straight tight back, normal angulation front and back, still a little scarce forechest, and will still spend a lot of time developing full volume in the ribcage, good width across the chest, correct bone structure, large paws, tight behind, moves with wonderful power and drive seen from the side, plenty of dense curls on body and legs, wonderful top knot, wonderful humor and attitude, a very appealing and typical water spaniel.”
Judge was Stig Arne Kjellevold who also chares his every day life with an IWS, something that makes this win a bit extra special. After judging when we took photos he said that the part with light eyes was a mistake, because when she was turned from the sun he realized that she have a nice dark eye. Unfortunately the critic was already done so no possibility to change that. Well we where both happy with Joy so let’s just leave it with that.
Efter en lång helg i Tromsö, en av Norges nordligaste städer så kan vi informera om att Stanegate Jump for Joy nu är Norsk utställningschampion, Svensk utställningschampion och Finsk utställningschampion!
”2,5 år, utmerket type størrelse og proporsjoner, god brede i skallen, kunne hatt litt mer stopp, tilstrekkelig kraft i snutepartiet, enda lyse øyne, utmerket hals, rett stram rygg, normalt vinklet frem og bak, enda litt knapt forbryst, og skal fortsatt bruke mye tid på å utvikle fult volum i brystkassen, god bredde over brystet, passe benstamme, store poter, trang bak, beveger seg med herlig kraft og driv sett fra siden, rikelig tette krøller på kropp og ben, herlig top knot, herlig humør og attitude, en meget tiltalende og typisk vann spaniel.”
Domare var Stig Arne Kjellevold som också delar sin vardag med en IWS varför denna vinst blev extra speciell. Efter bedömningen när vi tog bilder så sa han också att den delen med ljusa ögon var ett misstag, för när hon var vänd från solen för fotona så insåg han att där var ett mörkt, fint öga under luggen. Tyvärr var kritiken redan klar och publicerad så det gick inte att ändra. Men vi var båda nöjda med Joy så vi låter det räcka med det.
