Scottish Border Terrier Club Open Show (01-06-2025)

First Place in Limit - Bitch, Judge: Mrs Sue Spafford (Dassett)

Show Critique:

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.

Placing Critique:

Lovely feminine bitch of good type, good head with strong muzzle, dark eye and lovely keen expression. Straight front, good level top line, short carroty tail, easily spanned. Coat although not quite there was harsh and tight. Flowed around the ring. BB, RBIS
