The Yorkshire, Lancashire & Cheshire Border Terrier Club Open Show (29-01-2022)

First Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Miss K. Hamilton (Cromlechs)

Show Critique:

Firstly I would like to thank the officers and committee of The Yorkshire, Lancashire & Cheshire Border Terrier Club for inviting me to judge and showing a warming hospitality. Thanks also goes to my two stewards who made sure my day ran perfectly. A well ran show with a fabulous atmosphere and venue. Many thanks goes to all the exhibitors for allowing me to go over their dogs and making my day one to remember and thoroughly enjoyable. Bitches outweighed the dogs but I was happy with the overall quality on the day. I would say exhibits were presented well although some could benefit with some general canine care like nail clipping. The last few years haven’t been kind to the show world so let’s not forget that sportsmanship is vital in making the show and atmosphere what it is.

Placing Critique:

6 month old grizzle Dog with a pleasing head and good ear set. Good reach of neck with a straight topline leading to a nicely set on carrot tail. Moved well for one so young with good angulation from behind allowing plenty of drive. Pleased to award this handsome young dog Best Puppy Dog And Best Puppy in Show
