First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Miss Sally Leslie (Risdene)
Thank you for a super entry. At times I felt I had been let loose in a sweetie shop such was the quality of the exhibits before me. Indeed because I was spoilt I was hard on jaw and dentition faults and Borders that were more smart terrier than true Border in type. My experience over the years leads me to believe that such faults are heart-breakingly likely to continue to bite in the future if not stamped on. My main winners were true Borders. You read of “a-ha moments†and happily for me there were some rather nice ones here. Good times indeed.
Forget Me Not BP No chance of forgetting this one in a hurry, a sweet, feminine, true b/t, not over done , she is nicely made throughout with pretty, well proportioned head and skull with true expression set on good neck and shoulder, excellent in body with correct rib she presents with good underline. Despite her handler’s best endeavours I did appreciate her good quarters and hope that she might be allowed to settle herself correctly with her hocks let down as she does when she is relaxed, has the potential to shine
