Feck!! I've heard everything now! "and the judge should not be blinded by a dog thats got no jaw on seen loads"
All the finalists were judged on the following criteria:
1/ condition,
2/confirmation,
3/ wether fit and bred for purpose.
No dog should ever be discarded in a working terrier event if its marked up or scarred? but, a dog with no jaw cannot hold onto its quarry and therefore would autimatically be marked down as its no longer fit for purpose!
Who was gonna judge the dog's on a day out to see if they're tried and tested (the judges of the final?) who was gonna pay t
