The Southern Border Terrier Club Championship Show (09-06-2018)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mr W Shorthose (Cundytyke)

Show Critique:

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.

Class Critique:

Really good class with any of those placed likely to change places another day.

Placing Critique:

Very pleasing head with strong muzzle and neat set of ear. Well angled front assembly and good length to the body. Strong loin and well muscled thigh. First class coat.
