Best of breed at the The Irish Wolfhound Society of Ireland Open Show July 25th, 2010.

Tarlog Cuimhne at Killykeen

(Killykeen Aengus - Marlaw Mary Kate Danaher at Tarlog)

Breeder: Ms Velda Clark

Owner: Ms Velda Clark & Mr Anthony Killykeen-Doyle

Judge: Eva Söderqvist, Kennel Westmount, Sweden

Judge report:

In my Best of Breed Tarlog Cuimhne at Killykeen I certainly found that and more. (I was looking for a big, impressive, rough-coated galloping hound with build and movement to be able to do the job intended for, i.e. track and hunt down a healthy wolf and with a gentle attitude when not). Tall, substantial and very feminine, rough-coated bitch with an exquisive head and an excellent mover. Still in Puppy, so very well matured but still elegant enough not to turn heavy when fully grown. I cannot see anything but a very bright future for this gem and I wish her and her breeder/owners Ms Clark and Mr Killykeen Doyle the very best of luck in future.

(Killykeen Aengus - Marlaw Mary Kate Danaher at Tarlog)

Breeder: Ms Velda Clark

Owner: Ms Velda Clark & Mr Anthony Killykeen-Doyle

Judge: Eva Söderqvist, Kennel Westmount, Sweden

Judge report:

Very big and very substantial typical light brindle dog. Unbelievably mature in body, especially for his great size, but lacks today in coordination and would not settle on the move. Once all this comes together he will be most impressive.
