First Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mrs. Carolyn Richardson (Staynorwood)
I would like to thank Midland Border Terrier Club for inviting me to judge and to thank my Stewards Pete Armstrong and Sue Baxter. Unfortunately, the entry was somewhat reduced due to the awful storm conditions keeping many at home, but I was pleased with the quaity of dogs present for me to go over and very happy with my winners.
Feminine bitch with typical otter head and strong jaw. Good reach of neck into well laid shoulders. Narrow front. Harsh double jacket and loose pelt. Easily spanned. Short carrot tail set on well. Strong loin and moved well, driving from behind.
