The Northern Border Terrier Club Open Show (13-04-2019)

First Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Anna Duxbury (Ridgebow)

Show Critique:

I would very much like to thank the officers and committee for offering me my first club show in this lovely light, large hall. The hospitality was wonderful! Thanks also to the efficient ring stewards and most of all to all the exhibitors for their wonderful entry and allowing me the privilege of going over their dogs. Sincere thanks for the sporting manner in which my decisions were accepted. Temperaments on the day were excellent, coats were very varied – some good dogs were penalised for not having double coat. No mouths were undershot and all male dogs were entire.

Placing Critique:

Very smart blue and tan dog. Lovely head with kind eye and strong muzzle. Straight forelegs onto neat tight feet. In good double coat with thick pelt, and great underline. Good angulation front and rear and moved well but does have slightly sloping topline when stacked. Good thick tail. Handled well.
