Scottish Border Terrier Club Open Show (04-06-2011)

First Place in Yearling - Bitch, Judge: Mr M. Hollingsbee (Otterwood)

Show Critique:

I would like to express my thanks to the Officers and Committee of the Club for inviting me to judge their show, my second opportunity at a Breed Open Show.
I was struck by the wonderful atmosphere in the hall with every result being greeted with spontaneous, enthusiastic applause. The exhibitors in Scotland certainly are a very sporting lot!
I found no bad mouths but front movement in some exhibits left a lot to be desired. However my class winners did not disappoint me

Placing Critique:

Blue and tan 21 month old bitch, nicely constructed, good front, level topline, best mover in class, good coat and pelt, easily spanned
