BRITISH MANCHESTER TERRIER C

The British Manchester Terrier Club held an open show. I would like to thank the exhibitors who entered under me, breeders still need to look at movement also round eyes seem to be creeping into the breed & a few over marked bleeding of the thumb prints instead of a defined thumbprint, on the plus side temperaments have improved & no bad mouths all had good scissor bite.

BIS was Simjest Kiara’s Candy Girl; RBIS, Quixol Soriee; & BP, Rattustrap Imperial Red.
