Domare Cardigan: Helle Faarup, Danmark
I am looking very much forward to judge the Welsh Corgi Cardigans at the Welsh Corgi Special in Ljungskile. The cardigan is my own breed and is very close to my heart. I have been living with the cardigans for almost 40 years. My parents are breeding the cardigans under the name Kennel Faarup, and this year they are celebrating 35 years anniversary for the kennel. For all years I have been showing our cardigans in both Denmark, abroad and at Crufts which is always very fantastic. I had my judging education for both cardigans and pembrokes under well known special breed judges and that was very exciting. I really love dog shows – both as handler and judge. I love to see the cardigans with the fantastic outline, steady movers and lovely foxy expression. I always love to see our charming cardigans showing so much attitude both in the ring and at home – so we always laugh no matter how crazy they are.
Domare Pembroke: Maija Heinilä, Norge
Maija Heinilä (Kennel Milkcreek) har drevet sin lille kennel siden 1989 (Berner sennenhund, Spansk vannhund og Welsh Corgi Pembroke (ett par sheltiekull også). Maija er finsk, men bor i Norge etter noen år i USA, og har også et hus ved Karlstad som hun er veldig glad i.
Hun importerte Annlines Well-designed fra Anneli Sutela i 2001, og fikk noen Pem kull med flere championer (også en internasjonal champion) som resultat. Det skulle gå noen år uten Pem før Maija hentet en tispevalp fra Italia (N Ch Raggio di Sole for Milkcreek) som ble kjapt en champion (bildet). Maija har vært autorisert dommer siden 2000, og dømt i 23 land over hele verden. Hun er autorisert i gruppe 1 og 2 samt i vannhunder.
