Southern Dandie Dinmont Club Championship Show Critique

Dandie Dinmont Terrier General News
The Southern Dandie Dinmont Club held a ch show where I found some really great propects particularly in bitches, the top dogs were well able to hold their own in any competition.but perhaps it would be good
if breeders were able to place promiing dog puppies in show home rather than just pet homes. I have mentioned fronts quite a bit because I was so disappointed with the set of shoulders in a lot of the dandies. Are
breeders just looking for the wonderful heads and forgetting the engine parts. I found most with correct body shape with curve over loin and also well curved stifles, but with very steep scapulas and straight upper
arms, this should begiven some thought.

The breed managed only 60 registrationsin the first three-quarters of this year, which represented a 48 percent decline on registrations in the same period last year.This means that of the 26 breeds on the KC’s list of endangeredbreeds, the Dandie has, in the past year, seen the greatest decline.Since 2002, only 1,048 Dandies have been registered with the KC.But Dandie enthusiast Paul Keevil, who is co-founder of the BritishHeritage Dog Breeds group, said that there was a danger in taking thefigures out of context.“Last year we experienced one very high quarterly total which hasdistorted the overall picture,” he said.The…
