Bournemouth Championship Show (10-08-2009)

First Place in Post Graduate - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Margaret Sneddon (Kersfell)

Show Critique:

Thank you to my very efficient stewards. I think we have a real problem with the front construction and movement in the breed; there were far too many exhibits with short, steep upper arms, often resulting in a build up of bulky muscle on the outer line of the shoulder and the movement in front on many was very poor. The Border is ?essentially a working terrier and this type of construction will seriously compromise its ability to work.

Placing Critique:

racy blue and tan with an excellent jacket and thick pelt, good head with keen expression; level topline and presented a lovely outline, good legs and feet. Moved well but seemed to have her mind on other things at times.
