The Scottish Border Terrier Club Championship Show (09-11-2024)

First Place in Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mr A Horner (Stineval)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank SCBTC and committee for the privilege of judging this years Championship show and thank my very capable steward Euan Castell for keeping the ring flowing and the exhibitors for their lovely entry. There were some really nice dogs for me to go over. But I must say that looking at them in general heads are starting to stray away from that of the border terrier, the other thing that I think needs addressing is the general cleanliness of their exhibits. I found three suspect mouths and two kinked tails . thank you one and all for an enjoyable day,

Placing Critique:

G/tan with good head, neat ears and dark eye. Narrow straight front with sufficient bone level topline and carrot tail. Well angulated overall and moved freely. Harsh coat and loose pelt.
