Second Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Dr. Margaret Armstrong (Ploughdown)
I’d like to thank Yorks, Lancs and Cheshire Border Terrier Club for inviting me to judge their January Open Show. It was a privilege. I was given a really warm welcome and the hospitality was second to none. The venue was bright and airy and provided for a large ring with plenty of room for exhibitors. I was very ably assisted on the day by my two stewards, Margaret Davis and Sian McKay, who organised the ring with cheerful good humour and efficiency. It was also super to be present for the presentation by the Club to Pat and Brian Baxter, who always add a convivial and kindly presence to any gathering. Lastly I’d like to thank the exhibitors for coming out in numbers in chilly January and who accepted my placings with such good grace.
Well balanced grizzle bitch. Built on racy lines. Narrow throughout, showing good length of rib. Well angulated at shoulder and stifle. Pleasing head showing typical lines. Dark eye and lovely expression. Good bone and neat tight feet. Moved out well coming and going and showed drive in side profile. Super harsh double jacket and deep pelt.
