National Terrier Club (06-04-2024)

First Place in Junior - Dog, Judge: Miss Elspeth Jackson (Clipstone)

Show Critique:

Thanks to the National Terrier Club for their invitation to judge at this prestigious show and to the exhibitors who did me the honour of judging their dogs. I was lucky to have two efficient stewards who kept things running smoothly, thank you Laura and Dave.
The entry showed a good depth of quality. In many classes the places were hotly contested with decisions needing to be made on the narrowest of margins. I was very pleased to find that there were some good coats on thick pelts and the nice thick short tails which set off a good border so well.

Placing Critique:

Presented today in the thickest of jackets and he has the body lines to carry such a coat. Built on racy lines he is balanced and narrow throughout. Good straight front and good quarters which he used well on the move to take the class.
