Boris Wins Terrier G2 At Blackpool Championship Show
At Blackpool Championship Show, Boris wins the CC and BOB under breed Judge Liz Cartledge. This is what she had to say about him:
This was a most enjoyable judging assignment as the Welsh entry was of good quality with some superb youngsters coming along. There can be nothing more exciting than to find a new star in the making which is exactly what I did. My CC and BOB winner, Perrisblu The Butler, 12 mths old, just took my breath away. He is a proper Welsh, not a black/tan Wire Fox Terrier; the best I have seen in years. He never took a wrong step, moved so soundly and showed his head off. Definitely one to watch at top level as he really has got what it takes to go all the way.

“The winner, without doubt was, Tasselli Balboa Nembo Kid. Kerry Blue Terrier. Dog. I had a lovely Group of grand terriers, but being honest I was thrilled to have the chance of getting my hands on this chap again. I judged him in the line up for best in show at Leeds and he impressed me then, however, today he really pulled out all the stops and I felt he was even better now. He looks good, never losing his shape and hands on he is cracking, so sound shapely and as fit as hell fire. His handler is calm and they work together as one. Has a super coat and blue colour. A real terrier in every sense of the word.
I went back on Sunday and was delighted to see him go res best in show behind the super min Poodle under one of our most experienced judges Derek Smith.”
— Group Judge, Mrs Patsy Hollings
“Reserve Best In Show was Tasselli’s Kerry Blue Ch Balboa Nembo Kid, who came into the ring like a stallion in full flight. Lovely headed dog with the darkest of eyes, lovely neck and well ribbed. Again oozes quality. He too is very sound, colour, coat and presentation exemplary, as was his muscle ton, a very worthy runner up.”
