Second Place in Novice - Dog, Judge: Mr J Horswell
I very much enjoyed tackling this entry and found the breed to be in pretty good shape. Quite a relaxed and friendly atmosphere I thought. I did take coats into account, there were quite a lot who were rather naked on the day and as a result went further down the line that they might otherwise have done – you have to judge what you can see, and a good coat is important in a working terrier.
Liked his size and proportions. Masc head with strong jaw. Neat ears. Good neck. Holds a level topline. Has enough turn of stifle and well muscled rear. Turns his front feet out slightly and could develop slightly more in chest. Good coat.
