First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Linda Coleman (Hartswelin)
I enjoyed my judging and appreciated the good sportsmanship around the ring with applause for all class placings, this is so often lacking these days. In the males there were a lot shown in single coat so these were not in contention on the day, also quite a few were difficult to span. I did not find these problems in the bitches However as many judges before me have commented, good front movement is the exception rather than the norm and these Borders would easily tire following a horse all day.
Handy sized blue, all of a piece viewed in profile, lovely angles front and rear so moved true covering the ground. Loved her varminty expression. Her pelt was good and her coat so tight I had a job to check the rest of her coat colour coming through. Presented a balanced overall picture and I was pleased to award her her first CC
