Here
is a photo of me and Remy taken soon after he won BOB. I was laughing so hard
because of the funny looking cap that I was wearing which was the only prize for
winning BOB. At this year’s Royal Show all Best of Breed winners won was this
silly hat! What made it more hilarious was that the cap has a bottle opener
built into the underside of the brim and in the peak of the cap is a switch that
when you turn it on it makes lights flash on the front of the cap– very
classy! HA!
THE
GOLDEN RETRIEVER OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA CHAMPIONSHIP SHOW
11 September 2010
Judge: Mrs H Morrison, “Kaparla”, Australia
Ambermist
Optimum Velocity (AI) “Remy” - 1st Intermediate Dog Class and
then won
INTERMEDIATE IN SHOW
Critique:
“Super
quality gold boy of excellent breed type and size, so beautifully presented by
his glamorous handler. Attractive masculine head, good neck into shoulders
flowing into a hard level topline and short couplings, complimented by well
angled hindquarters with short strong hocks and tight, well arched feet. Carried
his tail up a tad high when excited. Strong, well muscled with solid bone and
substance. Would prefer to see tighter elbow placement. Very animated outgoing
boy who gave his handler a hard time on the move – thought she may end up
being tripped up a few time. INTERMEDIATE IN SHOW.”
Ch
Swifttreve River Dance “River” - 2nd Open Dog Class
Critique:
“Another
lovely style of dog, not dissimilar to the 1st place dog. Masculine
attractive head. Super front and shorter couplings than the first dog but his
lower tail set and higher tail carriage spoilt his outline on the move. Balanced
outline, balanced angles. Liked him a lot and it was a difficult decision for 1st
and 2nd place. A sound, honest dog. Handled and presented well in
good coat and condition.”
Ch
Ambermist Grace in Motion "Grace - 2nd Veteran Bitch Class
Critique:
"Beautiful
gold bitch of outstanding quality. Shorter backed and more compact than No 1 and
was unlucky that I simply preferred the style and type of the class winner.
Strong clean neck into well laid shoulders; good front with correct amount of
upper arm and shoulder blade; ideal depth of brisket and very well sprung ribs
and minimal tuckup at loin. Hindquarters adequately angled and strong, blending
well with short hocks and tight feet. Not overdone in any way. Lost her topline
and dropped her croup on the move a little. Showed with pizazz and was at one on
the move, with her glamorous smartly attired handler. Excellent clean shape
overall and shown in tiptop condition belying her 8.5 years of age. Beautifully
presented and handled.”

Critique:
“Good pleasant head, eye and
expression. Very nice neck into well-placed shoulders. Balanced angulation.
Excellent coat texture and condition. True coming and going and moved with
purpose.”
Ambermist
Optimum Velocity (AI) “Remy” - 1st Intermediate Dog Class
Critique:
“Pleasant head and expression, balanced
throughout, moved very nicely.”
Ch Swifttreve River Dance “River” - 2nd Australian Bred Dog Class
Critique:
“A bit stronger in head, nice pigment.
Blowing coat today.”
Other
than our appearance at the 2009 Perth Royal Show and 2009 GRCWA Championship
Show, my dogs and I took a 12 month hiatus from the show ring.
Obviously, the break has done us all the world of good as my three dogs -
"Grace" and her son "Remy" and grandson "River"
- enjoyed lovely results for the first two shows we entered for 2010.
