Jason Maret – Ind. Specialty Conformation (Dogs/BOB)
I am a psychiatrist by day and a Cavalier lover by night (and on weekends). My wife, Kim, first got me interested in Cavaliers when we purchased our first one in the mid 1990’s. Kim soon had me involved in showing and breeding Cavaliers.
Highlights of our journey thus far include winning Best in Sweepstakes at the 2014 ACKCSC National Specialty with our B&T bitch, GCHS CH Nordic Hills Stormy Weather CA THDD CGCA TKN, and winning Best of Breed at the 2017 ACKCSC National Specialty with our ruby bitch, GCH CH Kimark Turn It Up at Nordic Hills.
I have in the past served on the board of our local club, Badgerland CKCSC, and have been highly involved at our own regional specialty each October, where we are fond of saying, “Everyone’s a Winner at Badgerland!”
We are all so blessed to have such a joyful breed in the Cavalier. We should celebrate that joy both inside and outside the ring. Each and every dog to which we have been entrusted is a treasured gift . . . and no more so than to his or her adoring owner!
Lamont Yoder – Ind. Specialty Conformation (Bitches/Non-Reg)
I am deeply honored and incredibly excited to be invited to judge the ACKCSC Independent Specialty, and look forward to seeing some lovely happy Cavaliers that give me goosebumps and melt my heart. We truly have the most amazing loving breed in the world, and I am thrilled for this judging assignment!

Trudy Owens – Futurity
I am in my 26th year of having Cavaliers and my 20th year of breeding under the Cedar Creek Affix. Most of my 25 Champions have earned their title from the Bred By Exhibitor class.
As with life, I have seen Cavaliers ebb and flow in their conformation. As breeders it is always about breeding to the standard and knowing what to improve on, how to recognize what we need and having a plan on how to get the best puppies possible.
I look forward to seeing the work you have done at home in your programs and am honored to judge the 2025 Futurity class. It is one of the most important classes show casing you as a breeder.

Thank you for inviting to judge obedience and rally at Cavalier King Charles National Specialty on the Cape. I love judging the Cavaliers – such a sweet, lovely, talented breed!
My background includes a lifelong involvement with dogs, dog training and Corgis. As a child I desperately wanted a Welsh pony but instead my sensible parents gave me a Welsh Corgi. While obedience is my first love, I have successfully trained and showed dogs in tracking, herding, agility and conformation. I love the challenge of training and showing one dog to a breed championship and titles in a variety of performance activities. I have been judging AKC obedience since 1990 and Rally since 2004. I am active in several dog clubs, teach dog obedience, and conduct educational programs in local schools. My most recent love has been sharing my Corgis through therapy work in local schools. My avocation is use obedience training as way to help people become responsible dog owners and truly enjoy their pets. I also love introducing new competitors to the challenging world of obedience and rally competition. In 2017 I was honored to accept the AKC lifetime Achievement Award for Companion Events.
I look forward to seeing all of you this Spring. I wish all exhibitors the best of luck. Enjoy your National and be proud of your dogs.
