Reading & District Kennel Association Open Show (01-06-2022)

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

Show Critique:

A big thank you to the committee/officers of Reading & District Kennel Association for asking me to judge the Border Terriers at today’s Premier Open Show. A lovely entry of 20 dogs so a big thank you to the exhibitors for supporting my entry today and presenting some quality dogs. Also a big thank you to my steward for the day Mr Graham Smith who kept the classes moving along not just for the Borders but a number of the Terrier breed classes. It is always nice to have the day to see the Terrier Classes develop and see the quality that comes through into the group and it did not disappoint but always nice to see your Best Of Breed go Terrier Group 1 and to top it off be awarded Best In Show from an entry of well over 1,000 dogs

Placing Critique:

20 month old Grizzle & Tan bitch, nice for size and comes to hand really well. Feminine head, nice and clean through the shoulder/rib into a pleasant top line. Another fit well muscled bitch with good real angulation, Full of jacket today that just made her outline not as clear as my winner but a nice honest bitch.
