Open Show – Sunday 22nd December 2024

Judge – Mrs Jane Eyeington (Meadowdale)

I would like to thank the officers and committee for their kind invitation to judge at this super Premier Open Show. I commend the exhibitors for their patience and stamina to brave the bitter cold, as we were late getting into the ring. I very much enjoyed the quality of the dogs before me. Also, to my hard working steward Barry, who must have been freezing – thank you. It was lovely to have such a full Terrier group to judge, wish I had more placings to award.

Previously given this WFT bitch best AVNSC, but unfortunately with a change of handler, she decided to be uncooperative with her new young charge. No denying a quality bitch, just not showing herself to advantage in this class, despite the best efforts of her young handler.
