The Northern Border Terrier Club Open Show (13-04-2019)

First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Anna Duxbury (Ridgebow)

Show Critique:

I would very much like to thank the officers and committee for offering me my first club show in this lovely light, large hall. The hospitality was wonderful! Thanks also to the efficient ring stewards and most of all to all the exhibitors for their wonderful entry and allowing me the privilege of going over their dogs. Sincere thanks for the sporting manner in which my decisions were accepted. Temperaments on the day were excellent, coats were very varied – some good dogs were penalised for not having double coat. No mouths were undershot and all male dogs were entire.

Placing Critique:

7 and a half month old grizzle bitch. Good head, nice ears. Nice length of neck with lovely topline and good coat with thick pelt. Good front angulation and well laid back ribs, easily spannable. Good tail well set on. Would like slightly more stifle angulation, however she moved well, the best in this class.
