The Southern Border Terrier Open Show (05-03-2023)

Second Place in Post Graduate - Bitch, Judge: Mr Matt Smith (Alncroft)

Show Critique:

Many thanks to the club for the invitation to judge at their show and for their hospitality. Thank you to my stewards, and the exhibitors for entering under me. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and was pleased with the quality present. Many of the classes were close decisions and coats played a big part in final standings. Whilst I didn’t find any dogs that I couldn’t span, having spent a lifetime around working terriers some of the bitches in particular were on the larger end of the scale for preference.

Placing Critique:

Pushed the winner of this class hard but sadly lacking in coat today. Beautiful head. Good size all through. Good neck and shoulder. Standing on good feet. Correct topline. Good tailset with tail of good length.
