NATIONAL BEDLINGTON TERRIER C, 14/03/15

I would like to thank the NBTC for inviting me to judge, & also the exhibitors for their entries. I was pleased with my winners & found no bad feet or mouths, although dental hygiene could be improved in some. However I was concerned with the number of exhibits with very close rear movement & the accompanying lack of drive. Some dogs could also benefit from better muscletone to tighten movement up.

BIS was Ch Miteymidgets Hawkers Cove; RBIS & BP, Miteymidgets Going Global.
