Second Place in Open, Judge: Jo Hughes (Arunmere)
I’d like to thank the Oswestry committee for inviting me to judge Border Terriers —I was so pleased with the entry, and would like to thank all the exhibitors who entered. I was very impressed with the overall quality of the dogs. Some of the deisions weren’t easy, especially in the puppy class where there was so much promise on show. Most coats were in good order, with just one that had been recently stripped, and movement was generally good, even with the ring being a little on the small side, I could access movement.
Grizze boy, another excellent example of the breed, unlucky to meet 1st in such fine form. Lovely head and expression, scissor bite, level topline good harsh Coat, pliable pelt, spannable , well-set tail, good angulation throughout; Stood with pleasing outline and moved out well.
