I have always hated it when judges say ‘oh I wish I had had more top awards’ but I can honestly say that I truly now understand where they were coming from. I had some incredibly difficult classes with a lot of quality. This scenario continued when it came to choosing who the CCs & RCCs should go to. There are, however, two distinct ‘types’ of Borders developing & often classes contained a mixture of both types. The chiselled heads with high placed ears are not typical & we need to try to breed away from this as we are in danger of losing the otter head. I found no bad mouths, just a few where teeth ‘placement’ was peculiar & some dirty teeth. Presentation on the whole has improved, although please leave the scissoring to other terriers VD (2) 1 Axford’s Barterhound Rhinestone, this 8½ years grizzle dog has an excellent, harsh, tight double coat. He is in fit condition. A nice straight front, leading to good shoulders, well laid back ribs, strong loin & level topline. Sound movement, easy to span, neat tight feet & good mouth; 2 Small’s Tulawyn Oberon at Tilmoray, nice dog with attractive head & expression, a little heavier all round than 1 & not as sound on the move. MPD (5) 1 Hopper’s Esyntona Rip van Winkle, a very nice bl/t who out-moved the rest of the class with his excellent drive & effortless ‘float’. Very good harsh, tight double coat & thick loose pelt, lovely length of back & good topline. Good tailset, very nice head & expression with correct ear placement, good shoulder placement, very well presented; 2 Tuffin’s Othamcourt Woodchat at Oatberry, a very smart youngster in an excellent coat, very nice head & expression. These two gave me a very hard task to choose between them, on another day could easily change place & both show a lot of promise; 3 Johnson’s Kosmic Sun over Karison. PD (5) 1 Fryer’s Irton Morse Code, gorgeous red in the most stunning of coats, he oozes quality & has the most gorgeous head with typical expression & correct proportions. An extremely free mover who is so sound, this excellent movement in youngsters is so good to see. Excellent bone with good shoulders, lovely length of rib & strong loin, he is fit & could easily do his job. Gorgeous carrot tail & topline which he carried perfectly on the move, seriously considered him for top honours & I’m sure he will have a great future. BP; 2 Green’s Breckgreen Royal Mint, a nice youngster who was unfortunate to meet 1. Not as strong in head as him but a good head all the same. A lovely harsh close double coat & thick loose pelt, moved extremely well; 3 Dickinson’s Ragatam Newmarket at Badgerholme. JD (9) This was a very difficult class to judge as there was a lot of quality & not enough places. 1 Wilson’s Olderhill Afrunado, a very nice light grizzle/t who headed this very good class. He has an excellent head & lovely expression, wonderful tight cat feet, lovely length of back with well laid ribs & strong loin. Good straight front, lovely topline leading to a correctly placed & carried tail, nice amount of bone throughout. Very balanced, moved extremely well, lovely temperament; 2 Wrenn & Langdon’s Dandyhow Douglas Fir, very nice bl/t, he was a fidgety on the table but when standing I could really see his qualities. Gorgeous head with typical expression, very nice reach of neck, lovely topline & tail. Good harsh double coat, impressed by this boy who could easily swap places with 1 another day; 3 Dean’s Cedarhill Beyond The Stars.

Lovely harsh right double coat, nice head & expression, moved well; 3 Bate’s Sweeping Foxtrot for Kgills. PGD (8) 1 Squibbs & Barker’s Cobstoneway Lazy River, very nice dog with a gorgeous strong head with typical expression. His body is very well proportioned with lovely well laid ribs & strong loin.

RCC; 2 Holmes’ Bingobongo Wicket Widget at Bimandi, one of the fittest dogs of the day, he has muscles on muscles. Incredibly fit but used his power to move with drive around the ring, one whose coat is coming through but what was evident was good. Excellent loose pelt, a close decision; 3 Flowers & Buckle’s Bingobongo Hollywood Blues. LD (12) A difficult class with a lot of quality throughout. The top five placings could swap easily. 1 Hunt’s Ethlencoral Pip of Ottaswell, this dog presented a lovely picture & his overall balance just pipped it. Very nice light grizzle dog with a good head & expression, his bodylines are excellent with lovely level topline. Great length of neck flowing into good shoulders, correct ribs & strong loin, moved extremely well with good drive. He pushed incredibly hard for top honours, too; 2 Dean’s Digmoor Captain Rook by Tyrian, very similar to 1, lovely length of back & excellent loin, very nice head & expression & lovely tail which he carried well; 3 Docwra’s Bandicoot Double O’ Seven. OD (7) 1 Culley’s Earthwise Deuteronomy, I was thrilled to be able to finally get my hands on this dog & boy, did he not disappoint. He is in incredibly hard, fit condition & is a credit to his owners & his breeder, excellent head with a gorgeous kind but typical expression. Lovely strong, clean white teeth, excellent neck flowing into correct shoulders, correctly well placed ribs & the strongest of loins. Lovely topline which he kept on the move, absolutely stunning movement which is a pleasure to watch – striding out in front & using his power to drive from behind. He is a wonderful example of the breed who should have gained his title long ago. CC, his third; 2 Dean’s Ch Cedarhill Authorized, a very worthy ch who I have judged & admired before.
