Northern Border Terrier Club Open Show (19-04-2014)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mrs. Joyce Martin (Merumhor)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the Northern Border Terrier Club for their kind invitation to judge at this show, my first breed club appointment. I was well looked after by the committee and their hospitality was wonderful. I would like to thank my 2 ring stewards – Tracy Peacock and Allen Horner – who were very efficient in keeping me right and kept everything running smoothly. It was a great privilege for me to have such an excellent entry and of such good quality to go over. Thank you to all those who gave me this opportunity and for taking my decisions so sportingly.

Placing Critique:

This light grizzle bitch was well presented in a tight harsh coat with lots of pliable pelt. I like her otter head with flat skull, short strong muzzle muzzle and neat dark ears giving her a real varminty expression. She has a good front and is fairly long of body with very neat catlike feet. She moved well with purpose round the ring.
