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

Second Place in Post Graduate - Dog, 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:

2 years old blue and tan, the first thing to hit you are his large dark ears if he was wheaten they may have blended in, Head appealed in many ways, scissor bite and strong muzzle, keen eye, his angles were good at both ends and his harsh dry jacket covered a decent pelt, he kept an excellent topline on the move with positive action, well presented.
