First Place in Junior, Judge: Amanda Hall (Borderrush)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the committee of the Sporting Terrier Association of Yorkshire. For inviting me to judge the border terriers. A well run show, with some quality borders terriers to go over, and some lovely up and coming puppies. I would also like to thank the exhibitors for taking the time to bring their dogs under me.

Placing Critique:

Nice reach of neck into good lay of shoulder well ribbed back. Good front and rear angulation with nothing exaggerated. Racy hindquarters. Thick pelt with good harsh tight jacket. Thick tapering tail set high. Moved with reach and drive holding her topline both ways. A game bitch who could work all day. Pleased to award her BOB.
