Gloucestershire & District Canine Society (22-02-2014)

First Place in Post Graduate, Judge: Mr Darren Lockley (Chatmoss)

Show Critique:

My thanks to the Committee & Officers of the Club for inviting me to Judge this show but more so to the exhibitors who entered and attended, making the Border Terriers the largest entry in the Terrier Group. Having read the Breed Standard again prior to judging I was looking for exhibits which I would be happy to take out in the fields and woods for the day without worrying if they could handle it.

Placing Critique:

23 mth Grizzle bitch. Nice outline, easily spanned with good proportions throughout. Head of correct size and shape with good teeth in scissor bite. Good coat being both harsh and dense with loose pelt. Good muscletone throughout. Movement was somewhat impeded due to the intense concentration she had on her handler.
