BORDER JUDGE SOUTHERN COUNTIES 09

Border Terriers

A huge entry, it’s a good job we went outside for LD as we would not all fit into the inside wet weather ring. I really enjoyed judging the dogs more than the bitches, not often is the case but today it was.

Coats were either non existence, blown or half & half, just a handful were in double coat & they looked the part. One bad mouth, one had a front tooth missing, all dogs were entire & no bitches in season.

MPD (9,2)

1 South’s Borderella Day Tripper, 8 months red, good head for his age, dark eye, liked his length of body, good hind angulation which showed in his movement;

2 Anscombe’s Orangebox Firecracker, 7 months, smart lively grizzle, narrow front, better tailset than 1, both handled & moved well;

3 Newsham’s Kighill Mister Clooney.

PD (10,3)

1 Larner’s Hawcoat Blue Bertie, plenty of coat covering a smart handy red grizzle;

2 Sheild’s Cederhill Cuyahoga to Tarkadon, sound mover with good drive, masculine head, nice length of neck & body. Sadly he had no coat;

3 Freer’s Felfree Ricardo Tubbs.

JD (3)

1 Hunt’s Ethencoral Pip of Ottaswell, straight front & legs, good muscletone, well angulated racy hindquarters. Would of liked a better tailset & a shorter muzzle;

2 Girling’s Benattivo Basilio, smart showy dog with an otter like head, dark eyes, long neck, narrow front. Lacking in coat & not showing any ticking which a b/t should have;

3 Pateman’s Lessien Dinx Boy Oberon.

YD (7)

1 Regan’s Digmoor Aces High, what a dog to go over, the handler showed him off very well, slim spannable in a short harsh double coat, well angulated, correct short tail;

2 Dean’s Digmoor Captain Rook by Tyrian, pity this dog had no coat or these two might have changed places. Built on similar lines, slightly longer in foreface, movement in both 1 & 2 good with muscletone;

3 Norris’ Brookbank Could It Be Magic.

GD (4)

1 Haydon & Gibbing’s Badgerbeck Fresco of Earthtaw, one of the narrowest spannable dogs today, good coated red, slim all the way through, showed on a loose lead, a bit too loose at times;

2 Matthew’s Rhozzum Kingpin, r/grizzle larger build than 1. OK in front & movement;

3 Jackson’s Clipstone Tailor.

PGD (5,1)

1 Dean’s Yeomeadow Sorrel for Tyrian, smart leggy b/t coat, nearly on its way out but still had a harsh texture, lovely shoulders leading to a level back, another muscle dog from this kennel;

2 Jenkins’ Badgerbeck Felix, smaller red which was neat in all departments;

3 Anscombe’s Tufterslodge Walnut at Orangebox.

LD (17,1)

2 Johnson & Williams’ Quarryway Dill, light red, very nice in all departments, liked him for his shape & outline & deserved the RCC;

3 Clark’s Gameway Charles Dickens.

OD (9,2)

1 Hand’s Lutrabeck Likewise, red, narrow, handy size, spannable with a good double coat, pleasing head, good strong white teeth, straight front standing on thick pads, racy hindquarters, showed & moved with drive;

2 Hollingsbee’s Ch Otterwood Amex, stronger in head than 1, alert with keenest eyes, well made throughout but a handy size, moved true;

3 Singh’s Ch Vandamere’s Secret Agent.

3 Larner’s Hawcoat Double Expresso.
