The Southern Border Terrier Club Championship Show (09-06-2024)

First Place in Veteran - Dog, Judge: Mrs. Margaret Bailey (Grindelvald)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the officers and committee for asking me to judge their show, it was an honour. Also for making David and myself so welcomed and the enjoyable lunch. The quality of the Borders were pleasing to go over. Big thank you to my stewards Julie and Robert, keep the classes running smoothly all day. Finally thank you to all the exhibitors who braved the cold weather, it did stay dry and allowing me to go over their dogs. All the males were entire, as usual the coats were at various stages which cost some dogs higher placing. Some wide fronts let them down, large ears were a problem in some exhibits. I was delighted with all my winners such quality.

Placing Critique:

Stood alone in the class but a worthy class winner. 9yrs in super condition, good head, narrow throughout, nice rear angulation, moved with drive, good harsh blue and tan coat
