I would like to thank The Bull Terrier Club of Wales committee for asking me to judge their Open Show on Sunday 11th of September. From the moment I arrived to leaving I couldn’t of been made to feel more welcome by the committee. I am genuinely humbled and honoured when asked to judge as I believe especially in the present times dog showing is becoming a luxury, so a heart felt thank you to all who entered under me, and especially to all who travelled down and entrusted me to make my decisions over their pride and joys. The quality of dogs and bitches I went over was very good throughout and it was so refreshing to see all exhibits in tip top condition. What was refreshing to see throughout the exhibits today was the overall quality in heads, gentle profiles, good ear placement and keen expressions. Not the over exaggerated profiles that appear, get so much attention but not in the breed standard. Finally I would like to personally thank Mr. Chris Thomas for his stewarding on the day and his smooth running of the days procedures.

1ST AFANBULL PEEMS BEAR (MR J W SHEEHY)
10 month old white male with black ear and eye markings. Extremely typey male, beautiful profile, correct eye and ear placement. A couple of incisors out but has a very strong deep underjaw. Very correct reach of neck into a good lay of shoulder, a little loose in the upper arm which should tighten up with maturity. Plenty of bone and tight feet. Held his top line on the move. Moved with reach coming and drive going with a beautiful thigh leading into a well muscled second thigh and powerful hocks. Very raw today and gave his handler a run for his money. Just had that touch more drive and flashiness than #2 but was a close call. BD BOS RBIS
2ND CLANSMANN FIRESTARTER (MR R DEMMON)
11 month old brindle and white male. Good clean unbroken profile, very neat small ears and good eye placement. Good reach of neck into correct front. Ample bone with very tidy feet. Moved with reach coming but not quite the drive behind as the class winner but held his top line at all times on the move. Another very good dog but today just losing out to the class winner on the day on the points mentioned above.

1st CROESYBULLYS COLOSSAL (DENISE C MAISEY)
16 month old tri coloured male. Extremely powerful male. Head is absolutely filled up right to the tip of his nose. Another dog with good ear placement with a pleasing expression. Correct mouth with the deepest of underjaw. Such a powerful neck leading into a lovely lay of shoulder and correct upper arm. Masses of bone in his front legs and super tight feet. Moved with reach at the front and with the most powerful drive behind pushing out with every stride. Short back. Just loosing his top line on the move but this male is the optimum of masculine power. Another tough class of males but getting first on his power and masculinity. RBD
2nd CROESYBULLYS DOMINATOR OF DENUBULLIES (MR G PRING)
2 year old tri coloured male. Another quality male with a lovely clean profile, correctly placed small ears and pleasing expression. Mouth correct. Good reach of neck, not quite the length of upper arm as class winner but a good lay of shoulder. Ample bone and good feet. Holds his top line on the move, good true movement to the front but doesn’t quite have the drive and bend of stifle as the class winner, but again a close call.

1st AFANBULL HANK (MR J W SHEEHY)
15 month old white male with tri ear markings. Beautiful head, long tapering profile, good ear placement with tiny eyes and perfect mouth. Plenty of bone with very tight feet. Just slightly off in the upper arm, but a very good lay of shoulder. I’d like to see him slightly shorter in the back. Moved slightly close coming but moved with drive and power behind, lovely wide pelvis, he has plenty of power through his whole stifle and hocks with superb angulation. Unfortunately he wasn’t enjoying himself today.

1st CH GOODBYE TO HELEN WHEELS AT KAISERBULL (MR & MRS S & A LHOMME)
Its always an honour for me to judge the seniors and today I wasn’t disappointed. Both these senior ladies were of the highest quality thoroughly enjoying themselves on the mat.
12 year old white bitch with black ear markings. I remember this girl getting her title years ago, a beautiful bitch then and still is today. The most clean unbroken profile, with correct ear placement and lovely expression. Ample bone with still the tidiest of feet. Good front and considering her age she still held her top line on the move, moving really well front and rear. BV
2nd BRONYGARN BOBBY'S GIRL AT MOSTAHBULL (MR & MRS R J & A THOMAS)
10 year old white bitch with black ear markings. Gentle profile with very keen expression and correct ear placement. Ample bone and tight feet. Not as short backed as class winner. For her senior years she moved really well coming and going and never stopped wagging her tail all the whilst she was showing.

1st CLANSMANN FLAME OF GORY (MR P CAMPBELL)
11 month old red and white bitch. The cleanest of unbroken profile, tiny correctly placed ears, with beautiful expression. Mouth perfect. Very elegant arched neck into a perfect lay of shoulder and correct upper arm. Has the tidiest of cat like feet. Moved correctly front and rear holding her top line consistently on the move. To be ultra critical I’d like a touch more bone but such a well balanced and beautifully correct bitch who just stood out today in very good company. BP BB BIS

1st CYWBULLYS HEART AND SOUL (MRS SIAN BECKINSALE)
19 month old brindle and white bitch. Another bitch with a beautiful profile, very tidy ear set with a keen expression. Correct mouth. Ample bone with extremely tidy feet. I would like to see a touch more length in the upper arm. Moved very slightly close coming but has so much drive, moving parallel from behind. Really powerful rear with beautiful bend of stifle and let down hocks. Such a typey bitch who oozed attitude as soon as she came into the ring. She really pushed hard for best bitch but unfortunately just loosing out on the balance of the class winner. RBB
2nd QUEEN OF COLOUR (MR M B DAVIES)
3 year old tri coloured bitch. Another bitch with a gentle profile, not the power of class winner in muzzle but also has correct ear set and pleasing expression. Mouth incorrect, two instanding canines. Good clean reach of neck leading into correct front. Not the bone of #1 but again another bitch with the tidiest of feet. Moved very well coming and going holding her top line at all times. A very tidy well balanced bitch all round. Would have pushed class winner if it wasn’t for the mouth fault.
