National Terrier (04-04-2015)

Second 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:

Not as strong in head as 1. Good shoulder and narrow in front. Stood on good feet and presented in good, pale coloured jacket. Would like to see him again when he has had time to grow on and strengthen up.
