Second Place in Yearling - Dog, Judge: Mrs B Roderick

Show Critique:

Firstly I would like to thank my stewards for their assistance during the day.
Thanks to the exhibitors that sportingly took my decisions, it was a pleasure to judge some lovely terriers. I would just suggest that over baiting not only slows up the judging, especially with young puppies but does spoil the terriers outline in the final line up of the classes on occasion. That said it was pleasing to find the temperaments sound in the exhibits, despite the various distractions and of course the clanking of the ducting under the carpet. Thank you again for your entry.

Placing Critique:

Well yes he has a good head and set of teeth. Being well balanced standing on his well padded feet, body of correct proportions deep and narrow with his ribs carried well back, racy quarters giving the impression he could easily do his days work.
