The Spotted Devil Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Sitting in my hotel room in LA very much enjoying Westminster. I don't know how the judge awards BIS when there really isn't much to split the dogs and handlers. BIS: Affenpinscher Reserve: OES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwaY Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I have been watching it online for the last couple of days. Very happy to see Joey the Affen win, this was his last show he will be returning home to his breeder they say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RallyValley Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yes I was up into the wee hours of the morning watching Gundog breed judging then watched live streaming of the Groups and BIS today. A few Aussies did well, including an Aussie bred Wei going select bitch, the Aussie Lowchen BOB and I think the Group 2 Puli was Australian too...

grizabella Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Yes, I've been watching, some truly gorgeous dogs and the atmosphere looks incredible. Great to see some Aussie dogs doing well! I think it was a very well deserved win for Banana Joe, it's a shame that there are many people on the Facebook page having a whinge (in some cases being quite rude about it). I thought the OES, Swagger was pretty amazing to do so well as a class dog, and I thought the American Foxhound, Jewel was stunning as well. I'm looking forward to being there in person in 2015!

The Spotted Devil Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 Sway, I was thinking of your Hudson when watching Joey go around - such a little character! He and Swagger, the OES, were definitely the crowd favourites. Nice to hear the Aussie dogs did well too - thanks to everyone for filling in the blanks.

Sheridan Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Terrier - 1 - smooth foxy 2- wire foxy 3- border 4- Russell The smooth foxy didn't do much for me but I really liked the wire. The border was very nice and so was the Jack (sorry, none of this 'Russell' terrier nonsense; it's a Jack Russell). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had a name clash, so had to name them Russell Terriers ETA: As far as I'm aware, the Parson used to be called the Jack Russell Terrier (AKC), but it was changed to Parson in about 2003. They couldn't re-use the name :) Edited February 13, 2013 by weisnjac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weisnjac Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 The AKC has Parsons & Russells on their register. No "Jacks" When in Rome.. They are JRT's, but they had to alter their name for AKC registration. I don't care what they are called, I'm just really please to see them in the ring over there.

Which countries have written the standards for both the Jack Russell & the Russell. Would an AKC registered Russell by recognised as a Jack Russell by the ANKC or would it also be listed as a Russell, a different breed altogether? I assume neither would be reconised by the K.C.?

Would an AKC registered Russell by recognised as a Jack Russell by the ANKC or would it also be listed as a Russell, a different breed altogether? I assume neither would be reconised by the K.C.? I'm not quite sure I understand your question.. The breed is known here as Jack Russell Terrier. They couldn't use that name over there (I mention why in an earlier post), so had to use Russell Terrier. It's the same breed. ETA: Given that the winner was imported from Sweden, where he was registered as a Jack Russell Terrier, I assume if we imported him to Australia, he would be registered here as a JRT. I know semen has come over, and that is what has happened. Edited February 15, 2013 by weisnjac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
