First Place in Junior - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Sue Spafford (Dassett)
I would like to thank the Scottish Border Terrier Club for asking me to judge at the Open Show. Thank you to the ladies for a super lunch and Bill Shorthose for being my Steward for the day.
As always movement was variable with some very strange front actions. I found two kinked tails, a lack of coats in some dogs and also untidy coats, all had to be considered in the placings. That said I had a lovely day and enjoyed going over all the dogs that were entered.
Grizzle bitch, feminine head with good skull, dark eye and good expression. Strong muzzle, good length of rib and strong loin, neat feet, just lacking coat today.
