Retford & DCS Open Show (19-03-2023)

First Place in Puppy, Judge: Sarah Pateman (Lessien)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the committee for my invite to judge the Border Terriers at their Premier show 19th March 2023.
A busy show, well run and laid out and everyone very friendly and supportive.
I received a great entry and would like to take this opportunity to thank all the Border Terrier exhibiters who entrusted me to go over their dogs and accepted my decisions on the day. It was good to see so many puppies in the ring and of good quality.

Placing Critique:

Grizzle and tan bitch 8 months, stood out when she entered the ring, looked confident on the table and on the move. Keen eye, ears laying correctly to skull, shallow stop, moderate length of neck into nicely laidback shoulder. straight top line into correct tail set, good rear angulation and small feet with strong pads, pelt loose and spanned easily. Looking forward to seeing how this bitch progresses in the ring in the future. Happy to award her BPIB
