FOX SMOOTH BORDER UNION 18 Judge(s): MRS A TINDLE (JESUIE) FOX SMOOTH JUDGE BORDER UNION 18 I would like to thank the Officers and Committee of Border Union Championship Show for my invitation to judge Smooth Fox Terriers; I had a most enjoyable day. I would also like to thank all the exhibitors for their support. 2 Marshall's Thibaut Tarrant T/W dog 11 months old, did not do himself any justice, would not let me handle him and didn't settle on the move. The owner was struggling to handle this dog and I feel he would benefit from more practice at smaller shows to gain the ringcraft skills to be judged in future. 2 Marshall's Thibaut Tarrant 1 Moore's Wild Thing at Eskwyre short backed dog with good head, shape and size, good movement with drive showing all of the time. 2 Rougvie's Zetamaz Storm Warning a close second well balanced dog with short back a nice type moved well but didn't settle enough on the day. 1 Anderson & Watt's Nisyros Stormbound at Humeston I loved this dog he was the one I would have taken home. Great make and shape with a classic head and ears. Good sound movement both ways and well presented by his owners. DCC & BOB. 2 Baker's Roxway Extra Time at Tuskenraider another really well balanced dog with good shaped head and ears would have liked to see him drive more when moving. 3 Bissett's Tyrflindie Mr Dusty Millers with Foyleside 1 withdrawn from competition) 1 Schoneberg's AM CH Absolutely Signature lovely dog good clean head with small ears and keen eye, overall nicely balanced with good level topline, well presented and showing all of the time RDCC. 2 Cook & Rougvie's ND Ch Zetamaz Cool Dude JW SHCH (RE-IMP) preferred head of first but this is a nicely balanced dog with excellent shoulders and bone that moved well with plenty of drive. 1 Osborne's Forgevale Sun King T/W dog that had good ring presence, nice head, eye and ears well presented with a pleasing outline deserved his first place. PB (1) 1 Anderson & Watt's Nisyros Diamonds and Rust T/W bitch 8 months old. Short backed well balanced bitch with a good front and shoulders slightly overwhelmed by the day and didn't move her best but a promising puppy for the future BP. 2 Davison's Lizoni Hot to Trot B/W bitch had a lovely head and ears slightly longer cast than first, this bitch was difficult to handle on the table but looked good when standing in the ring. 1 Arustamyan's Lorecon Time's Arrow B/W bitch up to size with a good dark eye, pleasing outline this bitch moved and showed all of the time. 2 Glass Anderson & Watt's Nisyros Absolutely Spot on Different type to 1st hard to write a critique as this bitch didn't show on the day. 1 Hannar's Borovale Georgia B/W bitch with a classic head, tidy ears and keen dark eye. Short backed with a good spring of ribs. This bitch has great balance and was showing on the tip toe of expectation all the time RBCC. 2 Vickers She's the One at Eskwyre A well balanced T/W bitch that had good bone, feet and tail set this bitch moved well but I just preferred the head and shortness of first. 3 Goodley's Glendraterra Glad Rags OB (4,1) 1 Bebbington's Glendraterra Liberty Belle lovely B/W bitch short backed well balanced with great head, ears and keen dark eyes this bitch had a lovely shape with well-placed shoulders and good front movement she was well presented in the ring and was a worthy winner for the BCC. 2 Glass's Nyros out of control B/W bitch with a good head, eye and ears a well balanced bitch that just did what was required of her in the ring she really needed to show with a bit more spirit. 3 Schoneberg's Face the Crowd Vom Ernstthal
