Show Critique:

My sincere thanks to the committee for the kind invitation to judge at this show, and to all the exhibitors who entered and braved the abysmal weather to attend. I appreciate the sporting manner in which my decisions were accepted.

Placing Critique:

A 2-year-old grizzle bitch who stood out today. She possesses a beautifully proportioned otter head with a correct scissor bite, dark, keen eyes, and a well-placed ear set. Her straight front, small, tight feet with thick pads, and pleasing bone contribute to her overall balance. She displays a narrow, easily spannable rib carried well back to a strong loin, complemented by a well-set carrot tail and good rear angulation. Her balanced outline was further enhanced by a good pelt and a correct double jacket. She moved effortlessly, giving the impression of a dog capable of working all day. Awarded Best of Breed (BOB) and placed Terrier Group 3 (TG3).
