The Smooth Collie representative, Ch Clingstone’s Hot Shot at Foxearth, won the 2nd Vulnerable British and Irish Breeds Competition at Crufts 2017 today (Friday 10th March).

The competition, sponsored by Eukanuba and supported by the competition’s media partner Our Dogs, is the only one of its kind in the UK, raising awareness of Britain and Ireland’s rare native breeds and recognising those breeders and owners dedicated to ensuring their continued survival. In order to qualify for the final, a dog must have been nominated by its owner and have accumulated the most points in its breed at championship and open shows in the preceding year.

The final was pre-judged during the day by Stuart Plane, and the winner was crowned after a brief consideration of his shortlist in the Main Arena at 6pm.

Reserve was the Gordon Setter, Sh Ch Lourdace Fulcrum, who won both the VBB Competition and the Gundog Group at Crufts 2016. Shortlisted were the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, English Toy Terrier, Sealyham Terrier and Sky Terrier.

A full gallery of all the finalists who attended can be found here.

The Deerhound (Cotherstone Islay Mist of Kaleginy) and Dandie Dinmont (Cloverwood Duchess May) representatives did not compete today.

Many VBB enthusiasts were disappointed with the way in which the competition was handled at Crufts, with the pre-juding element not announced at all and the final squeezed in between the Eukanuba World Challenge and Utility Group judging.

This reporter has also been disappointed with the lack of media attention this competition has been given, with no official press release about the winners yet issued, no YouTube footage uploaded, and only the winners pictures being included in the official online gallery thus far. Also, last year the final was televised on Channel 4, but this year it was not. 

The entire point of this competition, in the KC’S own words is “raising awareness” – how is that supposed to be achieved when these breeds get less than 20 minutes in the spotlight, with no attention otherwise? Even the official press pack info about dog breed trends over the years barely mentions the VBBs, except as an arbitrary table of registration figures. Journalists need human interest angles, quotes, images: stories! Why is the Kennel Club not using this competition – or indeed Crufts in general – to provide these? 

Alan, a Lakeland Terrier from Uttoxeter in Staffordshire, won the Terrier Best in Group title at Crufts 2017 today (Thursday 9th March), qualifying him for a place in the Best in Show final on Sunday. 

Alan (Champion Saredon Enigma), who is only 20 months old, will return to the Genting Arena at the NEC in Birmingham on Sunday for a place in the final at the world’s biggest dog show, Crufts, with his handler, John Averis.  Alan is owned by Johann Schembri and Tony Barker and was bred by John, who is a Kennel Club Assured Breeder.

Second place in the Terrier group went to the West Highland White Terrier, with the Dandie Dinmont and Kerry Blue in 3rd and 4th.

Shortlisted were: the Bedlington, the Smooth Fox Terrier, the Irish, the Jack Russell (exhibiting at Crufts for the first time), the Norfolk, and the Scottie. 

People around Britain and the world will be watching to see which dog is crowned Best in Show on Sunday as the final is filmed live on Channel 4 and available to stream on the official Crufts YouTube Channel – www.youtube.com/crufts.

Around 22,000 dogs will compete over the four days for one of just seven places in the Crufts final and a chance to win the most celebrated title in the world of dogs. 

The Lakeland Terrier is a Vulnerable Native Breed.

John Averis, who bred Alan and handled him in the ring, said: “This is amazing.  Alan is only 20 months old but you’ve got to go in to the ring hoping to win and being optimistic.

“This dog has quite a history – his grandfather, grandmother and mother were all Best of Breeds at Crufts so he had a lot to follow and I believe he excelled himself.  We spend a lot of time training Alan and it has paid off.

“To me it is the highest honour to win the Terrier group at Crufts.  Time now for a pint and a curry and to look forward to Sunday.”

Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, said: “We are delighted to see Alan chosen as the Best in Group winner today. Johann, Tony and John should all be very proud of Alan for reaching the prestigious Best in Show final, it’s an incredible achievement and one that not many get to experience in their lifetime.

“Crufts celebrates happy, healthy dogs and recognises the special and unique bond between dogs and their owners. Alan is such a lovely dog that clearly has a great relationship with his handler, and is clearly at home in the show ring.

“It’s only day one of four and the final is bound to be exciting. We want to wish Alan and his owners and handler the best of luck in the ring, we are sure that all of Uttoxeter will be turning on Channel 4 on Sunday to cheer them on.”

Gerald King, Crufts Chairman, said: “The Kennel Club Vulnerable British and Irish Breeds Competition final is always a popular feature at Crufts. We are delighted to be able to showcase these special breeds in this way, and would urge visitors who may be interested in acquiring one of these breeds to also spend time in the Discover Dogs area of Crufts in Hall 3 where the dogs can be met at close quarters. Meeting the breeders in this way is always a great way to find out if a breed is suitable for a particular family’s lifestyle.”

Well, the annual registration figures for 2016 have been published, and the Kennel Club have issued their usual press release analysing the figures. The seemingly unstoppable rise of the French Bulldog and the persisting popularity of the Labrador has dominated most of the headlines, but we here at Dogs In The News are more interested in how the native British breeds are faring.

The KC has published an official list of 25 breeds which are classed as “Vulnerable”, meaning they register less than 300 puppies each year, and seven which are “At Watch”, meaning they register between 300 and 500. If you look at the actual registration figures for 2016 using the same criteria, however, there should really be 30 native British breeds on the Vulnerable list and 9 on the At Watch list.

As to how they’re doing, the answer is: variable. 24 out of the 41 breeds’ registrations are down on 2015, while 17 breeds have increased their numbers. If you extrapolate that analysis out over the past 5 years, some trends begin to emerge.

The biggest losers are:

Bearded Collies
Bullmastiffs
Deerhounds
English Setters
Irish Red and White Setters
Irish Wolfhounds
King Charles Spaniels
Mastiffs
Norwich Terriers
Parson Russell Terriers
Scottish Terriers
Soft Coated Wheaten Terriers
& Welsh Springer Spaniels

All of whom registered their lowest figures in five years in 2016. The Scottish Terrier has moved onto the At Watch list for the first time, despite the breed’s high profile win at Crufts 2015. The Bullmastiff is now also officially At Watch, while the Beardie and the Welsh Springer have moved from At Watch to Vulnerable.

The biggest winners were:

Smooth Collies
Sealyham Terriers
Field Spaniels
& both varieties of Welsh Corgi

Which all registered their highest figures in five years. Meanwhile, the Irish Terrier has moved off the Vulnerable list in 2015 to the At Watch list in 2016.

Altogether the Vulnerable and At Watch British breeds accounted for a total of 3.5% of KC registrations for 2016. (By comparison, Labradors alone made up 15%.)

British breeds in the Top 10 include Cocker Spaniels (2nd), English Springers (5th, down a place), Bulldogs (6th, up one) and Border Terriers (10th, down). Staffies, Cavaliers, Westies and Beagles are all in the top 20. Interestingly, the Westie also saw no spike in popularity following its 2016 Crufts win – in fact, Westie numbers have been rapidly declining since their 2004 high of 10,110.

Many other British breeds show worrying decline in their numbers, with the Norfolk Terrier and Wire Fox Terrier in particular very close to finding themselves on the Vulnerable list in the near future. What’s to be done?

​Owners of vulnerable British and Irish dog breeds are reminded that entry to the Kennel Club’s dedicated Crufts competition closes at the end of the year.

To raise awareness of vulnerable native breeds, and to recognise those who are dedicated to their survival and prosperity, the Kennel Club created the Vulnerable British and Irish Breeds Competition in 2015. Its inaugural year was met with great enthusiasm by exhibitors and saw the top scoring winner from each vulnerable breed invited to attend the first grand final, held at Crufts 2016.

The final at Crufts 2017 will be held on Friday 10th March at the NEC in Birmingham.

The competition, which is sponsored by Eukanuba and run in conjunction with media partner Our Dogs, is open to dogs of all vulnerable breeds competing at open and championship shows, and dogs of breeds on the Kennel Club’s vulnerable breeds list are able to collect points for awards at these shows. Points can be claimed for Best of Breed or Best Any Variety Not Separately Classified (AVNSC) and also for group placings at championship shows.

Exhibitors should record their Best of Breed/Group wins on the Vulnerable British and Irish Breeds Competition claim form/book for points gained from January to December 2016, and then submit this to the Kennel Club for verification (points will be awarded for championship and specific open show wins). 

Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, said: “The Kennel Club has been delighted with the response to the competition so far and is pleased that we are able to give these vulnerable breeds the recognition that they deserve. 

“Now that the deadline is approaching, we would remind owners of these breeds that they need to fill out a claim form if they wish to have the opportunity to compete on the famous green carpet. Crufts is a wonderful showcase for pedigree dogs and the perfect chance to show the world just how special the rare British and Irish native breeds really are.”

To take part, exhibitors need to download a Kennel Club British and Irish Breeds Competition claim form from the Kennel Club website:http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/activities/dog-showing/vulnerable-breeds-competition/.

The completed form must be submitted to the Breed Shows Team at breedshows@thekennelclub.org.ukby 5^th January 2017. The Crufts finalist for each breed will be notified by the Kennel Club.

Alexander “Sandy” Stoddart, who has been the Queen’s Sculptor in Ordinary for Scotland since 2008, has graciously accepted a commission to produce a bronze statue commemorating “Old Ginger”, the founding father of the Dandie Dinmont Terrier.

“Old Ginger” was born at The Haining, Selkirk in the Scottish Borders on June 4th 1842 and every Dandie Dinmont on earth today can trace their breeding back through their male line to “Old Ginger”.

Remarkably, the actual kennels that “Old Ginger” was born in still exist at The Haining, a grade 1 listed Palladian mansion. They were discovered only recently, having previously been incorrectly identified as a “menagerie”.

Research indicates that these are the only surviving kennels for any breed that can lay claim to the birthplace of a breed founder.

The life sized statue to honour his significance to the breed will stand in the kennel yard adjacent to the kennels and will be unveiled on Old Ginger’s 175th birthday, June 4, 2017. A three day “Dandie Dinmont Festival” has been announced and a large international gathering of breed enthusiasts from a dozen countries will attend.

In an extraordinary twist of fate, the surviving kennel run was built in the 1830’s by another Stoddart – the local Selkirk blacksmith, John Stoddart, himself a notable breeder of Dandies whose dogs appear in the female line of Old Ginger.

Sandy Stoddart is Scotland’s most important monumental sculptor of his generation. An admirer of the 19th century and fiercely devoted to Scottish history, his many works include the 10 feet (3m) bronze statues of David Hume and Adam Smith on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, scientist and mathematician James Clerk Maxwell and John Knox Witherspoon and architectural friezes in the Queen’s Gallery at Buckingham Palace.

He is currently in the final stages of completing an enormous statue of the great 19th century Scottish architect William Henry Playfair for the National Museum of Scotland.

He sculpts monuments exclusively to historical figures, designed to last into the very distant future. Stoddart says “My ambition is to do sculpture for Scotland, primarily through large civic monuments to figures from the nation’s past”.

Although renowned for his massive statues, he has chosen to sculpt the more modest, life-sized Dandie breed’s founding father because as a lover of all things Scottish, including Scottish dogs, he sees this as “a literary, cultural and indeed canine project.”

“I was and am keen to make the Old Ginger memorial for a variety of reasons. First, I am philosophically kindly disposed to the doggy tribe. I’d like to do something in the line of commemorating a fellow creature, long dead, who is the progenitor of so many to whom that loving-kindness has been directed.

Also, this is a subject related to Scott, who was an artistic titan. I’ve long wanted to make something related to Sir Walter’s genius, and so this opportunity arises. In all honesty I could not turn it down! I never got to make a statue of the man, but in this dog I might make my little contribution to the Scott heritage.”

Stoddart’s completed statue of “Old Ginger” will bring visitors to Selkirk, The Haining and the actual kennel where Old Ginger was born, given both Selkirk and the Dandie’s close association with Sir Walter Scott.

The project has the full and enthusiastic support of the Trustees of The Haining Charitable Trust. “The Haining embraces any and all initiatives to perpetuate and promote the Dandie Dinmont Terrier. We anticipate Sandy Stoddart’s bronze statue of Old Ginger will draw many tourists, not just Dandie and dog lovers but those fascinated by Scottish heritage and in particular Sir Walter Scott” says Lawrence Robinson, a Haining trustee. The mansion now hosts an annual “Dandie Dinmont Derby” that this year attracted 65 Dandie Dinmonts on Old Ginger’s birthday, June 4th.

It is hoped that Stoddart’s bronze statue of Old Ginger – the first Dandie Dinmont Terrier with a known sire and dam – will generate significant interest and help save this ancient breed with unique the literary name and remarkable history. Today Dandies are highly endangered (316 born world-wide in 2014) and is recognised by the Kennel Club as a Vulnerable Native Breed.

A JustGiving account has been set up by The Haining Charitable Trust to raise the funds for the Old Ginger statue.

The Kennel Club has announced that its Vulnerable British & Irish Breeds Competition will take place once again this year, culminating in a grand final at Crufts 2017.

To raise awareness of vulnerable British & Irish breeds, and to recognise those who are dedicated to their survival and prosperity, the Kennel Club created the competition in 2015. Its inaugural year was met with great enthusiasm by exhibitors and saw the top scoring winner from each vulnerable breed invited to attend the first grand final, held at Crufts 2016.

The competition, which is sponsored by Eukanuba and run in conjunction with media partner Our Dogs, is open to all vulnerable breeds competing at Open and Championship Shows, and dogs that are on the Kennel Club’s vulnerable breeds list are able to collect points for awards at these shows. Points can be claimed for Best of Breed or Best Any Variety Not Separately Classified (AVNSC) and also for Group placings at Championship shows.

The aim is for dogs to collect the highest number of points in their breed in a calendar year. At the end of the year, the top scoring dog from each breed will be invited to compete in the grand final.

Exhibitors should record their Best of Breed/Group wins on the Vulnerable British and Irish Breeds Competition claim form/book for points gained from January to December 2016, and then submit this to the Kennel Club for verification at the end of the year (points will be awarded for Championship and specific Open Show wins).

Points may be claimed retrospectively this year (from shows held on or after 1st January 2016) and exhibitors can also submit updates to Our Dogs which will publish monthly leader boards.

Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary, said: “The Kennel Club has been delighted with the response to the competition so far and is pleased that we are able to give these vulnerable breeds the recognition that they deserve.

“The Kennel Club would encourage show societies to work with breed clubs of vulnerable native breeds so that these clubs can inspire their membership to enter the classes and take part in the competition. Crufts is a wonderful showcase for pedigree dogs and the perfect chance to show the world just how special the rare British and Irish native breeds really are.”

To take part, exhibitors need to download a Kennel Club British & Irish Breeds Competition claim form from the Kennel Club website:http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/activities/dog-showing/vulnerable-breeds-competition/.

At the end of the year, the completed form must be submitted to the Breed Shows Team atbreedshows@thekennelclub.org.uk and the Crufts finalists will be notified by the Kennel Club.

Competitors can track their success on the official leader board, which is published in the monthly competition feature in Our Dogs. Anyone taking part is reminded to regularly log their points with Our Dogs by submitting the completed points tracker form either by email (pam@ourdogs.co.uk) or at the Our Dogs stand at General and Group Championship Shows.

Vulnerable Native Breeds

The Vulnerable Native Breeds represented in the Gundog Group, and their respective Best of Breeds were:

Clumber Spaniel (70 entries) – TOTUS TUUS KAPRYS REJENTA
Curly Coated Retriever (76) – ELKYSAR ALL THAT JAZZ
English Setter (200) – SH CH MARIGLEN SNOWDRIFT AT HAYWORTH

Sussex Spaniel (52) – SH CH JUBILWELL BEAST OF BODMIN AT VOBROOK

We are delighted to report that the Gordon Setter, SH CH LOURDACE FULCRUM JW won BOTH competitions! What a fabulous result for both this individual dog and for the Vulnerable Native Breeds as a whole.

The Reserve prize for the Vulnerable Native Breeds competition went to the Cardigan Corgi Ch Joseter Mr Blobby. 3rd was the Glenn of Imaal Ch Romainville Billy Whizz and 4th was the Field Spaniel Ch Elgert R’Anna.

Finally, an Irish Water Spaniel represented the working native breeds in the ever popular Gundog display.

Gundog Group

The Gundog Group, as detailed above, was won by James the Gordon Setter, from Fife. Unfortunately, the press picked up a story about fellow exhibitors grumbling because the judge who put him forward was the sister of one of the Gordon’s co-owners, but the Kennel Club have stated that no rules were broken in this case.

It was also a successful day for the Valentisimo kennel, who were present at the show despite their recent headline grabbing tragedy, with Best of Breed, Reserve Best Dog and Best Opposite all going home with them this evening, as well as multiple smaller successes in the classes. The Spanish Water Dog Best of Breed unfortunately wasn’t shortlisted in the Group, but they probably wouldn’t have had room in the car for any more awards!

Reserve in the Gundog Group was the Chesapeake Bay Retriever SH CH ARNAC BAY EXE. 3rd was the Lagotto Romagnolo IT/NL/SLO/BE/FIN/SE/VDH/LUX CH GLESKA GOODY-GOODY and 4th was the Flatcoat Retriever CH/SEU(U)CH/NOU CH CASTLEROCK SIMPLY MAGIC.

The Top Gundog 2015, Pointer SH CH SHARNPHILLY JUICI COTURE, won the Bitch Challenge Certificate. The Weimaraner SH CH GUNALT DE ICE AT STRIDVIEW, joint 10th 2015, won Best of Breed. Top Puppy 2015, the Labrador MATTAND EXODUS JW won the Reserve dog CC.

There are no High Profile breeds in the Gundog Group.
