WEST HIGHLAND WHITE JUDGE BOURNEMOUTH 09

West Highland White Terriers

Thanks to the exhibitors for their support over the bad ring issues which had to be dealt with as the outside ring was more like a beach. Dogs & exhibitors coped well as our wet weather tent was a very small ring indeed. The Highlander may be small but he can certainly move out with the best of them.

I felt the quality of both dogs & bitches to be of a very high standard. Unfortunately some had to go without cards or were further down the line; there were some classes where many of the main winners deserved a first. I felt the breed to be in good order, let’s hope we can keep it that way.
