Second Place in Puppy, Judge: Mr Peter Armstrong (Atron)
My sincere thanks go firstly, to the Committee for inviting me to judge at their Premier Show, at which the Border Terrier classes were also being kindly supported by the East Anglia Border Terrier Club. Secondly to the exhibitors for such a marvellous entry and for giving me the opportunity of going over their dogs and last, but not least, to my Steward, Karen Bridge, for her invaluable assistance in keeping the ring running smoothly. Movement today was sometimes difficult to assess, especially with the youngsters, as the ring surface was full of delicious smells both from the horses and the previous days dog show.
10 month old Grizzle bitch. Another promising youngster who pushed the winner hard. Owns a classic feminine head, good in foreface, appealing dark eye. Well set on ears, Straight front construction, with a strong neck set into laid back shoulders. Easily came to hand. Narrow throughout. Good angulation both front and rear. Presented in decent coat and pelt. Movement today not quite as positive as the winner.
