Border Terrier Club Open Show (31-10-2009)

Second Place in Special Beginners - Bitch, Judge: Mrs. Karen Dean (Tyrian)

Show Critique:

I would first like to thank the committee for the invitation to judge, and to them and my stewards, Frank Nicholls and Paul Cheeseman for looking after me so well on the day, and lastly to all those who exhibited and accepted my decisions so graciously. It was a long, exhausting but very enjoyable day for me. I absolutely loved my best dog, best bitch and best puppy, they were all lovely and narrow, well balanced with small tight feet, sound movement and not overdone in any way. I would take any of them home in a heartbeat.

Placing Critique:

Nearly 2 years old, taller, narrower and much rangier bitch, very well muscled and in super condition with strong second thigh and neat tight feet. Attractive head though longer in muzzle than 1. Long neck, well angulated, level topline. Moved well. Would prefer more bone.
