11mths light red brindle, very good head and expression very much like his sire, Good overall balance, well constructed front. strong quarters, moving with plenty of drive and keeping his shape while moving. Should go far

Alfie won his first green star as a puppy. He and his sister won Minor Puppy Classes at the Cairn Terrier Association Show UK in 2003 .

He started 2004 in style while still a puppy he took Best Puppy in Show, Dog CC and BIS at the North of Ireland Cairn club show. He went from there to Crufts where he won Puppy Dog. He was exhibited at 21 shows in Ireland where he won 12 BOB, 2 Green Stars and 5 Reserve Green Stars. He also won Group 2 and was short listed in other groups. He finished the year by winning the dog CC at the Midland Cairn Terrier Club Show.

To all the judges who have thought so highly of him and our other cairns a big thank you for making 2004 another good year.

2005 Alfie started the year in style by beating his half sister Cadagio Look Who's Talking (Jazz) who won green star bitch from puppy. Not only did he win BOB but he went on to take Group 3 as well.

Critiques

Cairn Terrier Association Minor Puppy

Hogarty’s Cadagio As Good As It Gets

Silver/grey, well grown, very good puppy, lovely head, nice eyes, very sound movement, good alert cheeky look, stands well, good firm back, nice tail caried correctly, good hindquarters, very sound movement. Think he was my BP but could not stay to compete as they had to catch the boat. Judge Judy Parker Tucker (Uniquecottage)

DCC, Best Puppy and B.I.S. North or Ireland Carin Terrier Club Show

Hogarty’s Cadagio As Good As It Gets

It was not a light decision to give a puppy such high honours but he fulfilled all the requirements I was looking for in a top quality cairn. Gorgeous head, this 11 month old silver brindle had that mischievous wicked expression that is so lacking in many cairns at the moment, good big teeth, excellent length of neck flowing into lovely clean shoulders, level topline and good tailset, ideal size, positive mover who keeps his lovely outline on the move or standing, has personality plus and demands to be looked at. Judge Yvonne Catto (Birselaw)

Crufts Special Puppy Dog

Mrs M Hogarty’s CADAGIO AS GOOD AS IT GETS

Midland Cairn Terrier Championship Show

Hogarty's Ir. Ch. Cadagio As Good As It Gets.

Stunning silver/br. of the highest quality. Most beautiful head with twinkling, mischievous eyes. Well sprung ribs, excellent legs and feet, well muscled quarters, perfect outline and his handler got the very best out of him as he showed non-stop and moved faultlessly to gain the CC. I was told afterwards that this was his second CC so, fingers crossed, I hope his third will not be long delayed. Judge Bill Camish (Camcairn)

North of Ireland Cairn Terrier Club

Hogarty’s Ir Ch. Cadagio As Good As It Gets.

There is no mistaking this youngster is all male. Lovely head and expression, good neck & shoulders, nice spring of rib, level topline tail on top. Moved with drive never put a foot wrong, presented in a rugged coat of good quality, had the edge over the Junior with his extra maturity and finish. CC Judge Ian Shaw (Honeyhall)
