First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Charlotte Archibald

Show Critique:

My sincere thanks to the Officers and Committee, for inviting me to judge the Border Terriers at this show. We were truly blessed with some lovely autumn sunshine, and a well laid out ring.
Thank you, to all the exhibitors for allowing me the privilege to “go over” your dogs, however, I had concerns about the size and movement of some of the exhibits. I have a fair span and struggled to get anywhere near some dogs, which reflected in the placings.
Consequently, some heavy shoulders, and wide fronts.

Placing Critique:

b/t with ticking just appearing, a sweet baby, just 6 months old, has excellent body length, head needs to mature, and movement to tighten up, but well angulated with a decent shaped tail.
