Results
Firstly,I would like to thank everyone for a lovely entry and also to the Scottish BTC for this opportunity .Special thanks goes to my two stewards for the day who kept everything running smoothly and for their good company. Although the lighting in the hall isn’t the best,it was adequate and the large square ring was perfect for watching movement,something I feel is very important in a border terrier. On that note I found my main winners to excel in this department.I was pleased to judge some strong puppy classes and also some strong adult classes. Mark Lowry
