DOUBLE CLICK ON ANY PHOTO FOR LARGER VERSION. (where edged in yellow) RUN CURSOR OVER PHOTOS FOR NAMES OF DOGS Tony has judged in The UK. Australia. Bulgaria. Cyprus. Czech Republic. Denmark, France. Germany, Hungary. Italy (Sicily), The Netherlands. Spain. Switzerland and the USA VDH-EUROPASIEGER-AUSTELLUNG. 8.MAY 2011 Dortmund , To all the exhibitors who travelled with their dogs to Dortmund , please accept my thanks for allowing me to judge them, it was a great pleasure. I know some exhibitors travelled long distances and so may have wished to have received higher honours but the competition was very fierce indeed and there were classes where I would have given more first prizes to each dog I placed if possible .It is important to remember that all Kennel Clubs and FCI are placing huge emphasis on health. This means that they want to see dogs preferably with mouths closed able to move easily around the ring and that is what all exhibitors must concentrate to improve upon for the future benefit of the breed and for its success in the big ring. Most bulldogs are family pets, but that does not mean they must not be kept in peak fitness condition ,well muscled up with no fat ,firm tacked on shoulders ,nice tuck up with tidy tight feet and short nails only obtained by walking them on tarmac/asphalt daily. I took care to be brief but detailed in all my critiques so please read them carefully. Once again thank you for exhibiting under me.

I thank the committee of the
South of England Bulldog Club for inviting me to Judge their Championship show
on the 19.9.2010 and together with my wife also thank them for their excellent
hospitality and super gifts. My stewards were professional and indefatigable and I had a great day judging a large entry of 175 from
169 DOGS. Judging started at 10.00am prompt ended at 5.00pm with half hour
break for lunch. I thank all the exhibitors,
some of whom had travelled very far, not only for entering their dogs but also
for generally accepting my placing so gracefully. I must say that the entry in
general but especially so in the Limit and Open Bitch classes. were of
the very highest quality and very difficult to judge as I was spoilt for
choice and many an exhibit to whom I would gladly have given an award had to
go card-less which augurs well for the breed’s future. I will never forget that when I
was being taught to judge the breed in the 70’s, how my mentors kept
drumming into me the old judging adage “To their virtues be kind and their
faults a little blind” . Perfection is impossible to
find but thankfully today’s exhibits generally displayed such overall
quality in conformation, health and vigour that
faults , in an otherwise fine specimen, like slits for nostrils, faulty
mouths, light eyes, heavy wrinkle, lack of neck, tight or extremely bowed
fronts ,over loose shoulders, hare /flat feet, inter digital cysts, straight
top lines, very short backs with high set tails, extremely tight tails
,inverted tails or lack of tail, any sign of lameness or poor movement,
timidity or aggression, excessive panting and obesity, should, in my opinion,
bar any exhibit from being awarded top honours when in such good company and to ensure the
continued healthy improvement in our breed, all judges, at all levels ,who
truly have the interests of the breed at heart, should be
duty bound to judge our breed accordingly. I also like to see evidently
