First Place in Veteran - 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.
Both these bitches are in excellent condition, a credit to their owners
This bitch has a typical otter head with her dark eye and well filled muzzle. She has a straight front, good depth of rib well sprung, spannable with a level topline and muscular loin; good bend of stifle and hocks well let down. Correct tail set of moderate length Moved soundly with good balance.
