The Midland Border Terrier Club Open Show (06-05-2023)

Second Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mr Keith Baldwin (Nightstorm)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank all the Officers and Committee of the Midland Border Terrier Club for inviting me to judge their club open show.
It is now 17 years that I have been judging Border Terriers and it was the 6th August 2011 that I attended the Midland Border Terrier Club breed specific seminar when Jena Tuck was the secretary.
I was very pleased with my entry of 112 quality dogs and bitches, also I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the exhibitors who entered and for allowing me to go over their dogs. They all showed and behaved very well. I can report back to you that you have overall one of the soundest breeds that I have judged.
Last but not least I would like to thank my stewards who did an excellent job keeping everything flowing smoothly between the two shows in the Margaret Everton Pavilion

Placing Critique:

22 months old, another top quality bitch that I now see is litter sister to Post Grad winner, with simular good breed attributes, you must be pleased with them both, her head was strong yet feminine and her muzzle is strong, keen dark eyes and scissor bite, clean neck and shoulders, well ribbed back and spanned handily, very racy hindquarter which drove her around the ring with balanced ease, well shown, the future should be bright for this one also.
