"Broken coated dog with tan ear and spot on tail, well balanced and easily spannable, good topline and tailset, he has a keen expression with well set ears, correct eye set with good bite, good front, legs and pads, fit as a flea, a happy dog that moved well." Alan Small-Judge.

Badger was born of English stock in the United States, becoming the Jack Russell with the most wins in that country. In 1985 he won the Jack Russell National Show out of 400 entries. Before he left the States in 1988 he sired 174 puppies, many of whom became Champions too. There is no known foreign blood in the Blencathra line for at least fourteen generations. Following K.C. recognition he became the first PJRT to win BOB at a Championship Show(SKC May 1990) and then went on to be the first Parson Jack Russell Terrier to win BOB at Crufts at the age of 6+. In the same Show two of his sons, Tithebarn Tally and Tithebarn Bracken, took first and second places in Post Graduate Dog, while his litter sister, Blencathra Nettle, also returned from the USA, won third place in Open Bitch. Badger has sired 79 pups since his return to the United Kingdom, 40 of them being bitches and he continues to live very happily in Keswick in the English Lake District.
