AIREDALE TERRIER

PUPPY (1)

1. Hughes, Kempton & Pearce’s Knowlelion Clowning Around NAF TAF. A promising puppy. Both handler and puppy bitch were very new to showing and very nervous. Nice length of head, well proportioned, with flat skull. Good ears and mouth. Nicely bodied. Correct hard, dense wiry coat. I hope they both gain their confidence and have a good future. BEST PUPPY & RESERVE BEST OF BREED.

1. Edington-Hall’s Wendaire Kissed by an Angel JW ShCM ShCEx. What a super, outstanding bitch, real king of the terriers! Lovely outgoing and confident temperament. Good length of head, well proportioned, with flat skull. Powerful and strong jaws, but still feminine. Well placed ears and correct eyes. Moderate length of neck with well laid shoulders. Short, strong back and well-muscled hindquarters. Stifles well bent and hocks well let down, giving great propulsion. Her grizzle coat not at its best on the day, lacking undercoat. However, her construction and movement made up for it. The handler told me later that she had won Best in Show at this show before, well deserved. BEST OF BREED.
