The Scottish Border Terrier Club Championship Show (11-11-2017)

Second Place in Yearling - Dog, Judge: Mrs E Cuthbertson (Ashbrae)

Show Critique:

My thanks to the Officers, Committee and members of the Club for this appointment. It was a privilege to judge, with a very nice entry and sporting atmosphere throughout the day.
My thanks for the hospitality, gift and excellent lunch, and to my steward Shona.
I was pleased with the entry overall, coats varied throughout. My main concern not only today but with the breed in general would be size with many being too big and something that must be considered in future breeding. Front movement with pinning in lost some dogs placings today. It was rewarding to start two youngsters off with their first CC’s and I wish them well for their future.

Placing Critique:

Another good young dog in good coat and condition . Liked his typical head, strong bite and nice expression. He is well balanced throughout and spans well. Nice showman and considered for top honours
