BORDER JUDGE BLACKPOOL 10

Border Terriers

This was my first appointment awarding CCs. I found a couple of mouths with teeth out of line & considering the quality of some of the exhibits they had to pay the penalty. I also found a couple of kinked tails which really surprised me.

V (7,3a)

1 Stockley’s Ch Manx Margaid, g/t, a worthy ch in her time, still showing herself well, pleasing head & expression, good dark eyes, good clean teeth & bite, in good coat on a thick loose pelt, still moving sprightly for her 8½ years, she will last for a long time to come for owner;

2 South’s Borderella Emma, nice 8½ years g/t & enjoying her showing still, good keen dark eyes with a pleasing expression. Not the sprightly movement of 1;

3 Freeman’s Borderella Elsa.

MPD (7,4)

1 Robinson’s Hollinholme Huntsman, g/t, nice expression with dark almond shaped eyes & small ears, correct bite, level topline with good tailset, moved a little loose but forgave it allowing for his age;
