Second Place in Junior - Dog, Judge: Mrs Wendy Mooney (Chesterton)
Thank you to the committee of Birmingham Dog Show Society for inviting me to judge Border Terriers at their show. Many thanks to all the exhibitors who entered and gave me the honour and pleasure of judging their dogs. I had a fabulous entry and was truly spoilt for choice in many of the classes. One general observation is that there were quite a number of dogs that were, in my opinion, simply too big to do the job that they are bred to do.
Another quality youngster who caught my eye, longer in leg than 1 but I was able to span him. Good length of rib. Lovely flat skull and pleasing otter head. Coat still coming through and unlucky to meet 1. Good angulation and moved well. Shows promise and one I shall watch out for.
