Minehead & DCS Open Show (10-11-2019)

First Place in Open, Judge: Miss Judith Haydon

Show Critique:

My thanks to the Committee at Minehead & District Canine Society for kindly inviting me to Judge the Border Terrier Classes at their Open Show in November 2019. I thoroughly enjoyed my appointment, and although I had a relatively small entry, all the dogs were of an excellent quality and a pleasure to go over. My final decisions were only made on the smallest of margins, and I am grateful to the exhibitors for accepting my decisions in a true sporting manner. My thanks also to my organised and efficient stewards on the day.

Placing Critique:

A super grizzle dog with a pleasing head, good reach of neck and correct shoulder. Lovely and narrow with a flat rib, level top line and correct tail set. Another one short of coat today, but nevertheless correct, and again moved well around the ring.
