Second Place in Maiden - Bitch, Judge: Mr. Tim Ball (Kaitak)
A thoroughly enjoyable day and my thanks go to the officers and committee for their kind invitation to judge their well-run Open Show. I was delighted with the excellent entry and what a pleasure it was to spend a day with the Borders and their owners. There were some well-filled classes which gave me lots to think about and some decisions were extremely close. A lovely atmosphere prevailed and applause for the winners was consistent throughout.
2 yr old blue/tan of completely different type to winner. Neck of moderate length, correct topline, ribs carried well back, good loin and tail good for both set and carriage. She has a nice dark eye and good dentition but her right ear flies somewhat and I felt she was rather lacking in expression. Moving well in profile but could be more positive when coming towards. Feet could also be better. Pretty good thickness to pelt. Well handled.
