First Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Margaret Sneddon (Kersfell)
I would like to thank the Committee for offering me this appointment, I was honoured to be given this opportunity. Thank you also to my stewards for all their hard work keeping the show running as smoothly as possible, for which I was very grateful. There were some lovely dogs present but front movement and lack of correct length and angulation of the upper arm continues to be a problem in some exhibits as well as size and correct coat . We should not forget the first line in the breed standard “essentially a working terrier”.
grizzle with a lovely otter head with nice length of neck flowing into good shoulders, level topline with well set and carried tail. Balanced outline with good length to the ribs. Very good, deep double coat of good texture and thick, loose pelt. Moved really well with a free, easy stride and good drive from the hindquarters.
