 A hardy looking workmanlike bitch in rich red grizzle coat which was at its best. Proper Border otter head with plenty of strength under the eye which gave her a real keen and mischievous expression. Good bite and strong white teeth. Smooth front into straight front – this bitch is just right for bone which added to the overall picture of being able to do a good days work. Easily spanned and with good balance. She moved out well once she had settled into the ring.
