First Place in Yearling - Dog, Judge: Mr W Shorthose (Cundytyke)
Overall, I felt there was reasonable quality in those forward. Some exhibitors continue to have their dogs underfed and/or carrying little muscle, both to the detriment of a terrier expected to put in a day’s work. There were a number of untypical heads – lacking width to the skull and strength to the muzzle. Please keep in mind the shape of an otter’s skull.
I was very pleased with my top winners and extend my thanks to all the exhibitors.
Blue and tan with correct ticking to harsh outer coat and loose pelt. Well proportioned head. Broader muzzle than many, with a keen expression. Moved best in this class.
