Whitehaven & District Canine Association Open Show (21-11-2021)

First Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Tracey Anscombe (Orangebox)

Show Critique:

Thank you to the committee for the invitation to judge at your show and to the Border Terrier Club for their support of the classes. I thoroughly enjoyed my day, there was a friendly ringside atmosphere and lovely exhibits to judge. Some of the entries in the younger classes didn’t settle that well on the move, perhaps due to the distraction of the large amount of bait left on the ground from the previous classes, but they did well enough and were all sound just distracted.

Placing Critique:

Litter sister to the junior dog winner and has many of the same qualities. Lovely head and expression. Neck into shoulders very free flowing back into an easily spanned rib. Tail short and well set on. Coat just holding on but of depth and still harsh. Moved well once she got going for her handler. Considered for best bitch but the open class winner presented a more mature picture.
