Blackpool Championship Show (22-06-2012)

First Place in Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mr Dan Ericsson (Sweden)

Show Critique:

Movement was difficult to assess under these circumstances, but most dogs seemed to cope remarkably well despite knee high mud & a water logged ring – living proof of the hardiness of the breed!
Despite the appalling weather I enjoyed my day with the Borders very much & was impressed with the overall quality of the dogs & the keen sportsmanship of the exhibitors.

Placing Critique:

sizeable masculine puppy with very good overall make & shape, excellent body & topline, wonderful pin-wire coat & moved very soundly. Head rather strong & I hope he has stopped growing, but his many good virtues won him this class
