First Place in Veteran - 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.
In lovely condition with a harsh coat. Liked his proportions. Masc head. Lengthy neck with a well laid shoulder. Slightly upright in upper arm. He holds a level topline. Well set tail. Rear matches his front.
