The Scottish Border Terrier Club Limited Show (26-01-2014)

Second Place in Novice - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Elizabeth Barrett (Howthwaite)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the committee of the Scottish BTC for their warm welcome and hospitality. Thank you also to my ring stewards Joyce Orr and Helen McKenzie for keeping things running smoothly. I am grateful to those exhibitors who braved the weather to attend the show. All the dogs were entire and mouths were very good. Coats were on the whole just on their way in which I expected just before the coming show season. A number of exhibits were carrying rather too much condition for a fit functional terrier.

Placing Critique:

Nice size and honest bitch. Good bite with short strong muzzle and very neat V shaped ears. Good in body and ribs with an excellent topline, underline and well set short tail. Shown in a good double coat with thick pelt. Strong hindquarters with good width and bend of stifle. Well let down hocks which really propelled her forward on the move.
