Yorkshire, Lancashire & Cheshire Border Terrier Club Open Show (28-01-2012)

First Place in Minor Puppy - Dog, Judge: Mr E Castel (Flutorum)

Show Critique:

I would like to thank the Officers and Committee for their kind invitation and the hospitality I received at their Open Show. This was a new venue for the Club and offers excellent facilities with a large spacious ring. Special thanks to my two stewards Anita Harrison and Brian Dickinson. Although not the largest of entries I was pleased with both my dog and bitch line up, I found the bitches to be of greater quality than the dogs, and was pleased that most exhibits were shown in good, well muscled condition. A final thank you to all the exhibitors for the opportunity to go over their dogs today.

Placing Critique:

I liked the head on this well presented 8 months red grizzle, he has a strong jaw with large teeth, although up to size for his age, he is narrow throughout and spannable. Good angulations, well muscled and moved steadily on tight feet. New coat of good texture with a loose pelt.
