First Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Mr W Shorthose (Cundytyke)
It is always a particular honour to judge a Breed Club Championship Show and my thanks go to the committee for their hospitality and my stewards who kept things running smoothly. I found only two poor mouths but more had wrong, thin skins and some needed to go home for a good feed. A working terrier needs to be correctly muscled and too many needed nourishment and exercise. The biggest problem, however, remains poor front movement showing both incorrect shoulders and, for some, over angulation in the hindquarters.
Neatly put together dog who has all the essentials. All is in balance. Narrow in body but with both appropriate length and strength. Good reach of neck and sloping shoulder. Shown in good coat and had a realy good thick, loose skin. CC and BOB
