First Place in Post Graduate - Bitch, Judge: Miss Katie Hamilton (Cromlechs)
Firstly I would like to thank The Border Terrier Club for giving me the honour of judging the open show at Low Hesket, with this show and venue being very memorable from a young age I was delighted and privileged to accept the invitation to judge the show. A huge thank you goes to my two stewards on the day who kept my ring moving smoothly, also appreciation goes to the club as a whole for the great hospitality shown. The standard of the exhibits on the day was overall pleasing with quality of bitches slightly outweighing the dogs, many thanks to all exhibitors for giving me the chance to go over their dogs and making my day such a pleasure.
Grizzle bitch of lovely quality and substance in tight coat. Beautiful head with correct skull and neat ears set well on. Good length of body with just the right amount of bone and size. Lovely straight front with ribs carried well back. Moved well. Very attentive to handler with a lovely demeanour between them both and not overdone in any way.
