First Place in Junior - Dog, Judge: Miss J Singh (Vandamere)
I would like to thank the Secretary of the National Terrier Club and committee members for their warm welcome and superb hospitality. I had a nice entry of 113. Inevitably there were some absentees. It was encouraging to see young handlers in the ring and I hope they continue to enjoy the show scene.
I found three wry mouths and one exhibit with a kink tail. A couple of exhibits were in need of muscle tone and condition. This is achievable by good feeding and exercise and not starvation. My thanks go to my very capable stewards who kept the proceedings running smoothly.
eyecatching dog, pleasing in head, correct bite, strong jaw. Ideal in size, he was spannable and well muscled. Very good outline and tail carriage. He has correct bone and neat feet. Rear movement was purposeful and with drive. Front movement has improved with age. New coat coming through but enough to win him his class with ease. Showed well.
