First Place in Graduate - 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.
an honest type of dog. He was presented in good hard condition with a pin wire double coat. He has a plyable pelt good ribs and is easily spanned. His head is a good otter shape, strong muzzle,scissor bite and nice ear placement which gave him a keen expression. His front was straight with good bone and neat feet. Pleasing angulation and second thigh in evidence. He moved with purpose and drive. RDCC
