The Border Terrier Club Open Show (24-02-2024)

First Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Libby Tanton-Joy (Itsaso)

Show Critique:

Thank you to the committee for inviting me to judge their open show held at Jedburgh, the home of the border terrier. It was a great privilege, and I had some amazing dogs present who are a credit to their owners, thank you for bringing them.
Thank you to my stewards for organising the rings so smoothly and keeping me on track so we finished at a reasonable time. The hospitality was second to none and I would like to thank the whole committee for this.

Placing Critique:

7-month-old grizzle and tan puppy who was really enjoying his day out, as they should be at this age. Plenty of character and taking it all in his stride. I found him very promising with a lovey front and rib and presenting a very balanced picture which is finished off with a cracking short carrot tail. Shown in correct jacket with pelt. Still needs time to develop in head and movement to settle as he matures.
