Second Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Lesley Armstrong-Rodgers ( Atron/Scottsway )
Thank you to the Committee for inviting me to judge Border Terriers at this extremely well run event, especially for pulling off such a great show despite being let down at such a late stage with their original venue. The Committee must have really pulled together, so very well done. I must say that they even had far more toilet facilities than some Championship Shows of late !.
I was delighted to be greeted with a super entry, not just numerically, but in quality too !. Thank you to all the exhibitors for bringing their Borders for my opinion today.
A trio of lovely bitches.
Another lovely grizzle and tan bitch who came to hand well. Has a lovely feminine otter shaped head with a super keen expression. I actually preferred this bitches head to that of the winner. A good reach of neck and correct front angulation. Well muscled hindquarters which she used on the move. Pushed the winner of this class hard but I just preferred the overall balance of winner.
