Yorkshire, Lancashire & Cheshire Border Terrier Club Championship Show (22-09-2019)

First Place in Post Graduate - Dog, Judge: Mr A Horner (Stineval)

Show Critique:

May I take the opportunity to thank the Club and its members for inviting me to judge at this show, and for the super warm hospitality I received. Special thanks to my ring stewards Carolyn Richardson and Julie North, for being efficient and keeping me on track.
I found no bad mouths and as always in our breed, coats at various stages. Lots of spannable dogs and bitches which I like.
I would like to say a huge thank you to the exhibitors for giving me the opportunity to go over their dogs, this was a real honour and I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Placing Critique:

First line of standard essentially a working terrier, this dog is just that. I think he could get just about anywhere. Grizzle and tan dog with a beautiful otter head, ears close to cheek, Lovely dark eyes, strong muzzle with big strong teeth. He has well laid shoulders and narrow front following right through lovely topline and tail set. good length of rib and strong loi. Easily spanned. Fantastic harsh jacket and stood on good tight feet and moved well. CC & BOB.
