Bournemouth Championship Show (10-08-2009)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Margaret Sneddon (Kersfell)

Show Critique:

Thank you to my very efficient stewards. I think we have a real problem with the front construction and movement in the breed; there were far too many exhibits with short, steep upper arms, often resulting in a build up of bulky muscle on the outer line of the shoulder and the movement in front on many was very poor. The Border is ?essentially a working terrier and this type of construction will seriously compromise its ability to work.

Placing Critique:

topsize grizzle with a strong head, in excellent harsh coat and with a thick pelt, good legs and feet. Moved really well with good drive from the hindquarters. I would prefer her a shade smaller all through.
