First Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mrs M Reeves (Baywillow)
I was the replacement judge for Carolyn Muirhead who sadly died in November. Firstly I want congratulate all the exhibitors who made it to the show in spite of the atrocious weather conditions. I was very afraid there would be few dogs there for me to judge. What a tough lot border folk are. I had plenty of quality dogs to fill the top placings but as a general comment I felt a number lacked sufficient rear angulation.
gr/tan. Liked his length of body, well placed shoulders and rear angulation. Head of good skull to muzzle proportions. Shown in good harsh coat. Very promising puppy.
