Darlington Championship Dog Show (17-09-2022)

Second Place in Limit - Dog, Judge: Miss Tracey Peacock (Ragatam)

Show Critique:

Firstly, I would like to thank the committee for their invitation to judge Border Terriers. Huge thanks to my two efficient stewards Laura Jordan-Smith and Julie North who kept me on track and finally the exhibitors for a super entry. Movement in general was better at the rear than in front as there were too many swinging fronts, wide movement and toeing in. There was a good selection of quality dogs and bitches for me to choose from and I thoroughly enjoyed my day.

Class Critique:

What a super class of quality dogs. Very close decisions for the placings with several good ones having to go home cardless.

Placing Critique:

g/t with typical otter head, well placed dark eyes, broad skull, good reach of neck, level topline and correct carrot tail. He has a good length if rib and he was shown in excellent harsh jacket with dense undercoat and a loose thick pelt. He covered the ground well on the move. R.C.C.
