Second Place in Post Graduate, Judge: Tracey Anscombe (Orangebox)
Thank you to the committee for the invitation to judge at your show and providing the steward, Lesley. She was brilliant keeping the ring and me in order! The classes were supported by the Northern Border Terrier Club which I know is greatly appreciated and lovely rosettes provided. I believe that not only did we have the biggest terrier entry but the biggest breed entry in the show. Thank you to everyone who entered, I thoroughly enjoyed my day. The weather held and no umbrellas required resulting in a pleasant ringside atmosphere and lovely exhibits to judge giving me a lot to think about.
Masculine dog of correct proportions from all angles. Very attractive in head and expression, correct detention well placed ears and dark eye. Straight front and nice lay of rib so easily spanned. Moved out well in tune with his handler. Unfortunately, today he was out of coat which was the deciding factor in this class.
