JOINT CAIRN TERRIER CLUBS

ROY TESTER (Judge)
I had a most enjoyable day judging the Joint Cairn Terrier Club's
Open Show hosted this year by the Midland CTC.
I found a number of light eyes, uneven mouths and indistinct stops but
on the upside movement was better than
anticipated.
My BIS Carradine Toblerone embodies the
characteristics which originally attracted me to the breed. I liked his size,
overall balance, firm construction and
flowing movement but above all his
typical outgoing character. RBIS
Glenchess Wild Echo is again very
typical with an attractive head, keen piercing expression, well-toned body
& quarters, stretching well forward on the move. BPIS Lockelsh Whats It All About was a clear winner, in lovely condition
and puppy coat, built on clean cut lines, moving as well as any on the day', a
most promising prospect.

71/2 years cream in super condition
& coat, lovely feminine xpression,
very showy;
2
Jennings' Doonrae Prudence, 81/2 years dark brindle, nice expressive
eye, not as sparky as 1 but a good honest type
