West Highland White Terrier 

Thank you to the Officers and Committee of the LHCTC for inviting me to judge WHWT’s at 

this extremely friendly and well organised show.   

Many thanks to my steward Allan 

Broadbridge. Although few, it was an absolute delight to judge the exhibits who were 

presented in beautiful jackets.   

Puppy (0) 

Post Graduate (1) 

1. Amber’s Leolux Shapeshifter – an impressive 13mth male, presenting a compact, balanced 

outline in hold. Head of correct proportions with slightly domed skull, distinct stop, dark 

medium sized eyes, excellent pigmentation, scissor bite with large, brilliant white teeth. Good 

depth of chest and well ribbed back with strong loins. Muscular hindquarters, stifle flexed 

and hocks under body giving plenty of drive, moved with purpose around the ring. Harsh 

coat, presented in excellent condition. BOB 

Limit (1) 

1. Amber’s Leolux Dreamer – a beautiful 13mth bitch, very pleasing to the eye. Lovely head, 

skull slightly domed, small erect ears and sharp, expressive dark medium sized eyes; shares 

many of the attributes as that of her sibling above (BOB). Balanced in hold and on the move, 

drives from the rear with ease. Preferred movement of her sibling on the day. RBB 

Open (2,1a) 

1.   

Tadhunter’s Otto the Maverick Prince – a compact 8 yr old male with a masculine head, 

definite stop, strong muzzle and scissor bite. Large black nose. Decent length of neck 

thickening towards base, would prefer more slope of shoulder. Short, level back. Relatively 

strong hindquarters, well placed hocks. A little unsettled in the ring today and lacking drive 

from the rear, slipping on floor. Presented in good harsh coat.
