City Of Birmingham Champ Show – Judge: Chelsey Harrison 1st JD & BJD This was a difficult class with many of the dogs all possessing different virtues. 1ST Grange’s, Prince Ali Konfident Step to Bosties (IMP). This boy caught my eye for type, he is brindle and white well marked. He is square in body. On closer inspection I was not disappointed. He is balanced throughout, His head has some lovely breed attributes. Square in shape no exaggeration, ears are well set and were used well throughout. He had a discernible stop, eyes are well-placed he had an abrupt brow and enough width to muzzle – good dentation. Enough neck, straight legs with enough bone. Top line level and strong rounded rump well set tail. Good second thigh with well let down hocks. I do have to say that the handler struggled at times to get the best out of this dog I believe he is promising with time and maturity on his side. BJD.
Richmond Champ Show – Judge: Mr. Paul Harding 2nd JD Twelve months old, lovely expression, pleasing ears, correct front, good spring of rib and bone. Moved and showed well.
Darlington Champ Show – Judge: Kathleen Glynn 2nd JD – A very smart brindle dog with good clear white markings, a square head with small well-placed ears. He had a good mouth, lovely square outline, good turn of stifle, straight front with good cat like feet. I liked him a lot but unfortunately, he did not go well on the move today, so this alone lost him the 1st placing.
Midland Counties Champ Show – Judge: A Wight 4th JD
Southern Boston Terrier Club Members Limit Show – Judge: Paula Hamilton In the smaller weight category but this 15 month old Brindle & White boy had a lot to like. He caught my eye as he entered the ring on a loose lead. His head was very attractive, nice dark expressive eyes, neat ears set on square, good padding around the muzzle to square the head. Adequate neck onto well laidback shoulders, level topline and square body, good curve to stifle. He moved well when the handler was asked to let him have a loose lead. He can only get better as he matures; I look forward to seeing him when he has more muscle tone to his thighs. Delighted to award him BD & BOS & RBIS
The Boston Terrier Club Open Show – Judge: Marie Hamlin 1st JD PRINCE ALI KONFIDENT STEP TO BOSTIES (IMP UKR). So much to like about this young dog. Pleasing square head with correct head to muzzle balance. Flat skull, erect ears used well, and beautiful dark round eye displaying alertness and intelligence at all times. Strong neck leading to a level topline, fantastic deep ribs which he carries right back to a muscular short loin flowing to a lovely slight curve to tail set. I loved this dogs straight strong front and hindlimb angulation. Unfortunately his movement let him down today where he moved slightly wide behind. Great substance throughout and presented in remarkable condition.

BTC Open Show 2024 – Judge Paul Quick 1st Yearling Dog & Reserve Best Dog
Prince Ali Konfident step to Bosties imp UKR, stunning male of correct type I really liked this lad. His head was mature and square, his eyes dark and round, he has so much quality and can’t be overlooked. His profile was strong and balanced his topline was perfect. He has spring of rib with a nice tuck up. I loved his tight feet. Nails being short is a must, he was untidy on the move on the day, and If he went better for me I would of had to think hard for best dog. Happy to reward him RBD
Banbury and District CS Open Show – Judge Martina Svitanova 2nd Post Graduate Dog At 21 months old, this brindle dog possesses a charming character and pleasing markings. Smaller and compact in size, he exhibits a nice type of square head with a well-proportioned muzzle and a well-defined stop, complemented by small, thin ears carried gracefully. His coat, soft to the touch, enhances his overall appeal. With a lovely expression characterised by rounded, appropriately sized eyes when alert, he presents a correct topline that is level yet slightly arched croup, coupled with a well-set tail and a short loin, contributing to his desired square appearance. His forelegs are strong and straight, leading down to sturdy pasterns and cat-like feet. Displaying a good width of chest and a commendable turn of stifle, he unfortunately exhibited a slightly elevated front movement on the day. Nevertheless, his brilliant temperament adds to his overall appeal.

Special Awards (Stacey Mewse Memorial Class – Judge Lisa Batty 2nd Graduate
Couldn’t wait to get my hands on this dog, exactly what I like, square, compact, a quality dog with excellent breed type. 21 month old Brindle with a masculine head without been over done, dark eyes, well placed nose, good padding to muzzle topped off with small thin well placed ears. He has a lovely straight front strong short Pasterns annd good feet. Excellent ribs which are well laid back, short strong loin, tight level topline and good set on of tail. His rear is well muscled and balanced with his front, strong short hocks which are well let down. Unfortunately he didn’t want to move for me today. Hopefully his handler and him can get this sorted and he will go far.
