Judge: Mr Mark Lowry (Ravenside)
Many thanks to East Anglia B.T.C. officers and committee for giving me the opportunity to judge their show, and to all the exhibitors for such a lovely entry. Special thanks to my two stewards, Richard and Julie for making sure everything ran smoothly on the day.
Overall, I thought the quality was good and I was pleased with my main winners, very balanced with lots to like and it was a pleasure to go over them.

Grizzle & tan pup with excellent masculine border head,lovely reach of neck with a straight narrow front.He has an excellent topline with correct tailset,narrow straight front with strong tight feet. He was turned out in a first class tight wire coat with a good thick pelt. Well angulated behind, he presented a great outline on the move. Promising future.

Thank you for inviting me to judge the Border Terriers at this show. Thank you for Jane my steward for keeping things running well.
Although the entry was small, I was very pleased to see them go on to achieve other winning places in the show. Thank you for taking the time and effort to bring them.

Dog; Grizzle; Dark kind eyes, set in a moderate skull with nearly placed ears. Good reach of neck going into good laid of shoulder. Super jacket with a pliable pelt. Spanned well. Neat tail; topping off the overall look of a border ready for work in the field. Moved with drive and fluid motion around the ring. Smart puppy showing promise in the show ring; more to come from this one I feel. Chasing tightly behind his dad. Went on to get Group 2 in the Puppy Group.

Joint Border Terrier Clubs Championship Show
31st Aug 2025
Judge: Mrs Jane Morton-Shaw (Fehmarn)
Many thanks to the committee for inviting me to judge what turned out to be the last Joint Ch Show. I had a wonderful day, & I was very ably and efficiently aided by my two stewards Tracey Anscombe and Peter Armstrong & I send my thanks out to them again (shows can’t run without good stewards).
My main down side to a lot of the Borders I went over was the front movement (I’m not immune to this either)! This needs watching and careful breeding to try and improve on this fault - not easy I know, but something to aim for. Again very few Borders with a good thick pelt which we used to have. Top lines have much improved generally and good to see that most of the exhibits were in good fit/hard condition.

He was out of coat today & hope he doesn’t grow on much more. Easily spanned. Level top line with tail well set on. Good angulation & bend of stifle. He moved well.
