Second Place in Limit - Dog, 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”.
a grizzle with a good otter head, short muzzle with big teeth, dark expressive eyes. Narrow throughout, well constructed and easy to span, well balanced; neat feet and short well carried tail. Shown in a short, tight coat with a good pelt. Moved well with enthusiasm.
