Sunderland & DCS Premier Open Show (15-05-2022)

Second Place in Puppy, Judge: Mr R Wright (Borderexpress)

Show Critique:

A big thank you to the committee/officers of the Sunderland & District Canine Society for asking me to judge the Border Terriers at today’s Premier Open Show. A lovely entry of 25 dogs so a big thank you to the exhibitors for supporting my entry today and presenting some really nice dogs.
Also a big thank you to my steward for the day, Mr Tom hall who kept not only my classes but all of the terrier ring for the day finishing off with the group.
Borders were first in the ring today so I had the chance to see all of the terrier classes develop during the morning and then pleased to see my Best Of Breed go Terrier Group 2 – well done.
A lovely friendly show well supported and being an outside event weather held and the sun shone for most of it. Thank you all again for a lovely day and your support -

Placing Critique:

8 1/2 month old Grizzle bitch of a moderate build, a tad heavy on the day but spanned OK. Nice feminine head and dark eye, shoulder/rib construction good and a good top line leading into a well set on tail. Really nice rear angulation finished off in a good jacket. A little more time spent on her finishing touches makes for a nice bitch with pleasing lines.
