Scottish Border Terrier Club Open Show (04-06-2011)

First Place in Novice - Bitch, Judge: Mr M. Hollingsbee (Otterwood)

Show Critique:

I would like to express my thanks to the Officers and Committee of the Club for inviting me to judge their show, my second opportunity at a Breed Open Show.
I was struck by the wonderful atmosphere in the hall with every result being greeted with spontaneous, enthusiastic applause. The exhibitors in Scotland certainly are a very sporting lot!
I found no bad mouths but front movement in some exhibits left a lot to be desired. However my class winners did not disappoint me

Placing Critique:

grizzle bitch in good coat, excellent mover, straight front, well set tail, nicely set ears, good reach of neck
