The Northern Border Terrier Club Open Show (17-07-2021)

First Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Mrs Margaret Davies (Glenorchy)

Show Critique:

My grateful thanks to the Club for inviting me to judge their July Open Show. I had a lovely day. I’d like to thank the exhibitors for a super entry
Also thanks to my very capable Steward, Allen Horner, who kept everything on track, Valerie Atkinson for a lovely lunch and to the club for their hospitality. The show was well organised considering the difficulties with Covid restrictions. I had difficulty in spanning quite a few exhibits and I was surprised to see a lot of small teeth. Also there were a lot of exhibits who could have do with their nails trimming. All dogs were entire and there were no kinky tails.

Placing Critique:

this dog caught my eye as soon as he came into the ring. He has super ring presence and was presented in tip top condition. He has a lovely head, good ear placement and good expression. Good depth of muzzle with good dentition. Nice narrow front, good tight feet, lovely level topline which he held on the move. Easily spanned — liked his overall confirmation. He certainly looked the part today. Pleased to award I him B.I.S.
