And the Kennel Gazette features…..

Posted on by

…..the Glen of Imaal Terrier!

Glens are the breed put forward for “Judges’ Choice” in this month’s KC Gazette and there are some interesting choices. The whole piece is led off with a very nice photograph of Connor Quinn on the front cover and he, along with Bran Clark, are the main photo boys until it gets to the actual individual choices.

5 judges (no all-rounders) with 3 choices each means 15 names and photographs. There are 13 different ones as two, congrats to them, get picked twice. One nomination is “a name so far back now that it has fallen off extended pedigrees” but every Glen chosen, except one, is a direct descendent and dogs have been mentioned from the USA, Sweden, Denmark and Ireland as well as the UK….if it ever could be said that a dog made their mark it has to be this one!

  2. Unfortunately, no …

    It was an interesting read … if just for the Glens that were NOT included in the top three …

  3. Each judge had to nominate 3 Glens and give their reasons. Harold was one of the judges asked and his were Eversley Patrick, Malsville Soldier Blue and Coleraine Little Man Tate. He was of the opinion to see those dogs in the ring today could be of benefit to judges, breeders & exhibitors

  7. Lora Clark owned a brindle Glen that she imported from the UK. This must be “Bran Clark”. His call name was Brando and his registered name was Pajantick Sky Masterson at Malsville, but it appears that he wasn’t mentioned in the article.

    • A photograph was asked for that summed up a Glen. The one of Brando was chosen by the Gazette editor
