Border Terrier Club Open Show (31-10-2009)

Second Place in Open - Bitch, Judge: Mrs. Karen Dean (Tyrian)

Show Critique:

I would first like to thank the committee for the invitation to judge, and to them and my stewards, Frank Nicholls and Paul Cheeseman for looking after me so well on the day, and lastly to all those who exhibited and accepted my decisions so graciously. It was a long, exhausting but very enjoyable day for me. I absolutely loved my best dog, best bitch and best puppy, they were all lovely and narrow, well balanced with small tight feet, sound movement and not overdone in any way. I would take any of them home in a heartbeat.

Placing Critique:

20 months old. Not one I have been attracted to from the ringside but so well made when handled. Bigger all round than 1. Super strong head with flat skull, dark ears strong muzzle and good bite. Straight front, well laid shoulders, well ribbed with level topline. Harsh double coat and good pelt. Moved well. Reserve
