First Place in Minor Puppy - Bitch, Judge: Miss Nicola Foster (Thozow)
It was a great honour to be invited to Judge a Border Terrier Club Open show so I would like to thank the Southern Club for this opportunity. It was a day I had been looking forward too, so I would also like to thank the exhibitors for their entries, allowing me to access their dogs and for accepting my decisions. I was most grateful to my stewards Sian McKay & Marina Fleming who kept the ring running efficiently, and also live streamed the challenges and BIS.
This bitch impressed me with lots to like, she is alert with a lovely feminine head, V shaped well placed ears, a dark kind eye and a well filled muzzle. She has neat compact feet with moderate length of neck leading into a well laid back shoulder and return of upper arm, giving her enough forechest; ribs are carried well back, a level topline and racy hindquarters. Moved with good reach and drive. BPB, BPIS
