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

First Place in Limit - 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:

3 years old. Decent head, flat skull, strong muzzle with good bite, slightly heavy in ear. Shoulders ok and well angulated behind which showed in good drive. Straight front, well ribbed back, level topline, good tail well set on. Good harsh coat though a little lacking in undercoat. Moved well.
