NATIONAL TERRIER CH SHOW

Cairn Terriers

It was an honour to have such a good entry. As with other judges I found depth of quality lacking in the dogs compared to the bitches.  I was very disappointed to find incorrect mouths in both sexes. The lack of a deep stop, which is key to the Cairn's expression, was also evident.

Presentation in the main was good but some exhibits did not think they were going on the catwalk.
