First Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mr Matt Smith (Alncroft)
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.
Lovely, well made bitch. Well turned out, presents a good outline. Strong but feminine head. Good neck and shoulder. Excellent topline. Narrow with good depth to body, comfortably spanned. Standing on good feet. Moves well in profile. Not quite on top form today.
