First Place in Puppy, Judge: Heather Chaplin
A huge thank you to the Secretary and Committee of EELKS for their kind invitation to judge Border Terriers for the first time and to my three stewards for keeping the ring moving to ensure that my main winners could take part in the Group. Last but definitely not least, my sincere thanks to all the exhibitors who kindly entered their lovely Borders under me and gave me such a super quality entry from which to select my main winners. All bites were sound, all dogs entire. Coats were a bit mixed as usual, as was movement, some front movements being better than others and some covering the ground with more ease and economy, but all the dogs were spannable. I was delighted that my BOB was awarded TG4 and that my RBOB obtained RBOB G5 under Group Judge Cara Davani. Congratulations!
Balanced, tidy 6 month old pretty blue/tan bitch. Good feminine head shape for her age. Keen expression. Equally moderate front and rear angulation. Narrow throughout Correct thick jacket and pelt. Neat feet and correct tail and tailset. Moved out really well holding her topline and carrying her tail well around the ring enjoying her day. Should do well in the future. BP. Well done.
