Midland Counties CS (29-10-2010)

Second Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Phil D Sharp

Show Critique:

A magnificent entry, the highest in the terrier group. Some exhibits did not have a good otter head & appeared too coarse. Movement was also an issue, as it should be the hindquarters that provide the propulsion, with the topline remaining reasonably level as the dog moves. Tails were somewhat better than when I last judged at this level. I was pleased with my final line-up for both dogs & bitches.

Placing Critique:

lovely expression & moved out purposefully, nicely built throughout. Just needs to tighten up a bit & should continue to do well
