I was surprised to find that quite a few had a lot of chalk still left in the coat, creating white clouds when patted lightly on the back. I thought the idea was that chalk can be used for cleansing purposes but should be brushed out. A few were more grey than white & lacked presentation skills but they were in the minority. VD (1) 1 McLoughlin’s Ley Hey Living Legend, 9½ years, there was nothing old about this chap, obviously loved & well cared for. Masculine head & outlook, confident showman, good coat texture, strong body, well ribbed up. Could have moved with a little more terrier spirit but he was on his own with nothing much around him to get excited about. MPD (1) 1 Purchon’s Lindenka Chesterman, 8 months, attractive, confident puppy, pleasing head, good pigment, black nails but they need clipping. Standing just a little bit flat on his front feet. Strong body, good tailset, steady showman. Still got his puppy coat so not very harsh as yet. PD (2) 1 BP, Lilley & Milling’s Lilmill Nosey Parker, 10½ months, no shortage of self esteem here. Masculine head with good expression, excellent bone & depth of body, well muscled quarters, good reach of neck, natural showman, plenty behind the tail, well presented & handled. Beat his sister for BP; 2 Cooper’s Brorastar Sergeant Pepper, 9 months, harsh jacket, lovely dark eyes full of expression, fit body. Bit of a handful with a will of his own, did not settle to move properly.

GD (1) 1 Windram’s Louie Conquistador, 3 years, honest dog with harsh jacket, failed a little in topline & tailset. Could have moved & showed with a bit more animation. When he saw something of interest he did use his neck. PGD (4,1) 1 Coley’s Kingsview Warwick, 20 months, fit looking youngster who made the most of himself. Typical head, dark knowing eyes, good neckline, body & overall proportions, steady showman, went well; 2 McLoughlin’s Ley Hey Latest Legend, 2 years but a bit of a teenager still, needs more body & not moving as well as 1.
