Southern Border Terrier Club Open Show with Critique (19-09-2010)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Miss Gemma Alpe

Show Critique:

Firstly I must thank SBTC for giving me the honour of judging my first Breed Club show. I thoroughly enjoyed my day and had some first class dogs to judge. I found no bad mouths and only one with a slightly suspect kink and movement on the whole was pretty good. The one thing that bothered me was that we seem to be losing our way a little with those lovely fronts that to me are a big part of our breed, and a number of dogs are toeing out both on the stand and on the move. I was pleased with my winners, they mostly fitted my interpretation of the breed standard, but I was delighted with my top winners, all of whom are a credit to the breed and I thank their owners for giving me the opportunity to judge them.

Placing Critique:

This bitch caught my eye from the outset she is so typical in head, expression and outline, she oozed feminine quality, she moved soundly and kept her top line level at all times. excellent harsh deep coat and thick pelt BB, RBIS
