First Place in Novice - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Chris Davis (Hesselemere)
Firstly my thanks to the Committee of Southern Border Terrier Club for the invitation to judge their show this year. I thoroughly enjoyed my day. It was lovely to see such a good bunch of Borders as I have not been around any shows of late due to other commitments. The quality was excellent; I was really pleased with both my line ups, but particularly the males. Size was very pleasing, as was condition, well muscled animals that could do a day’s work. Temperaments were excellent too. The breed is ‘looking good’.
G/T of lovely type. Stood well (reminded me of my Silent Witness). Coat Ok but with evidence of new coat coming through. Topline good into super tail. Nice neck and good rib. Dark eye and expression. Notes say ‘my sort of Border’.
