The Southern Border Terrier Club Open Show (03-03-2024)

Second Place in Yearling - Bitch, Judge: Miss Nicola Foster (Thozow)

Show Critique:

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.

Placing Critique:

Repeat entry ( see Junior bitch) This grizzle and tan has a thick movable pelt and excellent jacket. Correct otter like head with dark eye set well. She is narrow throughout, spannable with a good depth of rib carried well back. Strong muscular loin racy hindquarters and hocks well let down. Moved well although a little close behind.
