First Place in Yearling - Bitch, 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.
blue and tan – a very eyecatching bitch, superb outline and tail set. Her coat was a good texture and she has a thick pelt. Pleasing in head and expression, neat ears and strong jaw. Correct shoulders and good ribs. She was spannable and her hindquarters were nicely angulated . Movement was true both ways and she showed well. RBCC
