Second Place in Open, Judge: Joanna Taylor (Barkanellie)
I would like to thank the society for giving me the opportunity to judge border terriers for the first time. I had a super entry and some lovely dogs to go over. There were a number of dogs light on coat, presumably due to preparing for Crufts, which impacted some placings. Overall movement was good, as were teeth, tails and temperaments. I was pleased to see my BoB take TG4 any my BP take TPG3. Special thanks to my steward Libby Wain who kept everything on track and organised.
8 month old grizzle puppy dog. Good head, well set ears and nice expression. Moved well with good topline and tail set. Coat coming through. Nice size and easily spannable. Looked very much a baby against 1 but one to watch as he matures.
