National Terrier (04-04-2015)

First Place in Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mr W Shorthose (Cundytyke)

Show Critique:

Overall, I felt there was reasonable quality in those forward. Some exhibitors continue to have their dogs underfed and/or carrying little muscle, both to the detriment of a terrier expected to put in a day’s work. There were a number of untypical heads – lacking width to the skull and strength to the muzzle. Please keep in mind the shape of an otter’s skull.
I was very pleased with my top winners and extend my thanks to all the exhibitors.

Placing Critique:

Well shaped head, keen expression, neat ear and good length of neck stretching into well angled shoulder. Good top-line and well set tail. Moved with drive from well formed quarters. Bit short of coat today. BPD
