Judge: Mr John Bainbridge
A small but interesting entry with many good quality exhibits a pleasure to judge after the challenge of my previous two huge entries. The BOB and Dog CC winners are excellent examples of the breed with otter head, good length neck into well laid shoulders, correct length of body, flowing top line, well ribbed back into strong loin and well angulated rear quarters, short hocks and good feet, narrow throughout and spannable making for a dog that can run with the horse and go to ground on arrival. Both were in double full coats but the bitch presented better in hers and relaxed in the final challenge to show her full quality to take BOB.

Judge: Mr. S. Golding (Beaconpike)
I would like to thank the club for inviting me to judge there limit show and to my steward Joyce Orr. I thoroughly enjoyed my day thanks also to the exhibitors who tuned out in the bad weather I was pleased with my main winners I found many of the dogs were out of coat on the day unfortunately my main concern was the lack of a thick pliable pelt in a few of the exhibits

The Scottish Border Terrier Club Championship Show
9th Nov 2013
Judge: Mrs S Williams (Hollybridge)
I would like to thank the Scottish Club for the invitation. It was an honor to judge at this friendly and hospitable club’s show. Huge thanks must go to my very capable & experienced Steward Joyce Orr and her excellent helpers, Jim Stewart in the morning and Helen McKenzie in the afternoon. All did a super job.
Thanks too to the kitchen ladies for the amazing lunch.
I was very pleased to have such a super quality entry. I could have easily given out more tickets if they had been available. Some close decision at times, a true reflection on the high quality of the entries. Presentation of the dogs was very good, mouths too on the whole were correct with only the odd exception. Feet, I was pleased to see a vast majority of neat cat like feet on the dogs, no long hare feet. Tails again seem to be improving, not as many of the over long sickle ones that I have noticed in the past. Coats and pelts: while coats are transient and of course some had more than others on the day, texture was very good and the vast majority had good thick and loose pelts. I think the breed overall is in a good place.
Just one point I noticed, some dogs had to take a lot of steps to cover the ground, watching out that our dogs move with drive is very important and I was happy with my winners in that they, in my opinion, covered the ground well.

Lovely head & expression on this attractive, if leggy grizzle & tan. Quite rangy but spannable dog with a good coat & pelt.
The Scottish Border Terrier Club Limited Show
26th Jan 2014
Judge: Mrs Elizabeth Barrett (Howthwaite)
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.

Upstanding grizzle and tan dog in a correct harsh double coat. Very good head, with flat skull, well set ears, strong muzzle and excellent bite with huge teeth. Nice bone and excellent feet. Ribbed well back, deep and narrow but would prefer a little more length right through. Racy hindquarters, he is very sound and true on the move.

The Scottish Border Terrier Club Limited Show
25th Jan 2015
Judge: Mrs D Lorraine (Raleniro)
Firstly I would like to thank the officers and committee for inviting me to judge at the club’s limited show, my first breed club appointment. Thank you for the warm welcome and hospitality, and special thanks to my very efficient steward Joyce Orr who kept things running smoothly. Many thanks to all the exhibitors who gave me the opportunity to go over their dogs and the sporting way in which they accepted my decisions.
As to be expected at this time of year, coats were at all stages with some exhibits in full coat and some without any, and in certain classes this was a deciding factor. Mouths were good with only one or two exhibits having the odd misplaced or dirty tooth. Size was a slight concern, with a few exhibits being well up to size and difficult to span, and some carrying a little too much condition. Movement on the whole was good, however, some exhibits did not cover the ground with the drive and economy of movement that would be essential when working. Generally temperaments were excellent and all males were entire.
I was very pleased with my main winners, in my opinion good examples of the breed and very capable of doing the job they were bred for.

3 year old grizzle and tan dog with very good head and typical expression. Excellent bite with large teeth and strong muzzle. Shorter coupled than winner and a little up on the leg for me. Spannable with good pelt and coat. Would prefer a little higher tailset. Moved well.

Judge: Mrs Ann Maltby (Pherjan)
I would like to thank the committee of the Scottish Border Terrier Club for the invitation to judge the show. Thanks also to my very able steward Joyce Orr and to the ladies in the kitchen for the excellent lunch. There were no bad mouths and all the males were entire. Coats were at various stages of growth on some exhibits but my principal winners had good double coats.
