Judge Biography
The DDTCC welcomes our Judge for all classes of the Dandie Dinmont Terrier Club of Canada’s 18th Biannual Specialty show:
Mr. Paul Eardley75 Thomas More House Barbican, LondonEngland EC2Y 8BY
PAUL EARDLEY Paul Eardley has been involved in the world of dogs his entire life, beginning with junior handling. He and his mother’s Sherex affix is well known in the UK for its Australian Terriers and Dandies.
There have been many Aussie champions from this Kennel, including the renowned Ch Sherex Shiraz, top Aussie in the UK for three consecutive years, and featured in the pedigree of virtually every CC winning UK Aussie in recent years. Last year the spectacular Ch Silhill Red Rock at Sherex, bred by Sue McCourt (Silhill), with whom the Eardleys work closely, made breed history, becoming the first Australian ever to win Best in Show at a UK championship show. He was also Top Terrier for 2007.
Dandies became part of Sherex in the late eighties and Paul’s mother, Shelia, always has at least one Dandie as her constant companion. As well as showing their own Dandies, Paul has had success handling Dandies for others. Last year he handled Mrs. Bannister’s Ch Banburg Alfresco to his championship and to an exciting group placing at Midland Counties. Paul first started to judge while still in school. A corporate lawyer by profession, he is approved to award CC’s in four terrier breeds, the Australian, Dandie, Glen of Imaal and Norwich. Paul also judges all terrier breeds and the group at open shows in the UK . He has judged Aussie Specialties in Sweden, Denmark and Finland and at Montgomery County in the USA. At the Dutch Terrier Club he also judged the Dandies, drawing a significant entry.

CLUB HISTORY
In 1969, seven people sat together and formed the Dandie Dinmont Terrier Club of Canada, a club dedicated to preserving and protecting this rare, unique and endearing
breed.
It took several years before the fledgling DDTCC hosted its first booster show, which drew an entry of 16 dogs. By 1974 the club had the confidence and the funds, to hold its first Specialty Show, which attracted dogs from all across Canada and the United States to compete under British judge Audrey Hall-Parlby, (the daughter of the immortal Phyllis Salisbury of Salismore fame, and a Dandie breeder in her own right.) Since that time, the DDTCC has held its Specialty show ever other year, with the entries showing an increase with each decade. The most recent, the 17th bi-annual Specialty was held in November 2006 with a total of 59 dogs entered in the official and unofficial classes. With rarely more than two dozen Dandies registered in Canada each year, the enthusiasm and support for our Specialty shows is remarkable!
For the past three decades, usually in conjunction with the Annual General Meetings, the club holds its annual “Fun Day” - which is not only our club picnic, and games day but an open house - an opportunity for people to see 30 or more Dandies in one location. We laughingly call it the “Olympics of Dandies”, but in essence it is a series of “see if your dog will humiliate you” competitions. The events include running races high jumps, a “gourmet” competition consisting of strange foodstuffs, and a masquerade competition which inspires people to dress their dogs from everything from “Yankee Doodle Dandies” to “Crocodile Dandee”. One enterprising couple slithered their dog into a pair of pantyhose, put a mustache on his nose and instantly transformed him into a sea lion.
As Fun Day is our annual fund-raiser, we charge nominal amounts to enter each event, and each participant must bring a wrapped gift as their entry fee, which are then used as prizes for each competition. A fee for the lunch between the AGM and the Fun Day events, and a silent auction further adds to the club coffers.
This demonstrates our congenial and light side. But the DDTCC is also serious and concerned about the present state of the breed. Already one of the rarest breeds in
DDTCC first Specialty Show, 1974
CLUB HISTORY (con’t)
North America, fewer puppies are being born each year. At the current rate of attrition, it is possible the breed will not survive successfully over the next few decades. Consequently, the Dandie Dinmont Terrier Club of Canada has several initiatives, designed to promote, protect and preserve our beloved breed.
Our well known “cuddling parlours”, which are now duplicated world wide, are held at several public events annually - such as the Highlands of Durham Games each July in Uxbridge - which allows the public to hold, cuddle and fall in love with our breed. However, we do not seek to make the breed “popular”, as this would be as disastrous for Dandies as it has been for other breeds.
The club holds regular grooming clinics, to teach our owners how to care for their dogs’ coats themselves. Our members will go to any length to help the club, to help preserve the Dandie Dinmont, and, in addition, to preserve the original standard.
This is an important point. Perhaps a brief history of the standard would clarify our raison d’etre. In 1876, Dandie experts from both sides of the border met in Melrose, Scotland to forge the original written Standard of Perfection for the Dandie Dinmont. The British standard remained as written, (with a small amendment regarding the desired weight range), for about a century, until the Kennel Club (England) required that all canine breed standards conform to the same format. Thus the original (1876) standard was changed.
As Britain is the “country of origin” for the Dandie, the FCI, (the ruling body for approximately 85 countries) accepted the new British standard. Only Britain, the USA and Canada are not members of the FCI. The American Kennel Club has its own written standard, which is approved only in the United States.
Thus, Canada is unique, as it is the only country in the world that accepts the original standard, one of the finest written and most descriptive and instructive of any breed standard. The Dandie Dinmont Terrier Club of Canada is dedicated to ensuring that this precious, original Dandie standard is preserved.
Watch for the DDTCC’s unique “Cuddling Parlour” at the DDTCC Specialty, hosted by our wonderful ambassadors for the breed – our Dandies! And listen for the sound of the Highland Pipes, as the Dandies will be piped into the ring by our official piper!
