I would like to thank the East Anglican Bull Terrier Club for the honour of judging a lovely entry. It is always a pleasure to have the opportunity to see the dogs in the flesh. They are often much different than their photos on line. As usual in England, I was impressed with bone, substance and generally pleasing headpieces. However, ear placement, expression and cat feet was somewhat disappointment The trophy table was exemplary highlighted by hand painted plates done by Gaynor Richardson.
Thank you to my ring steward Heulwen Bloom who kept the event running smoothly and also thank you to the committee who provided a delicious and relaxing luncheon. Apologies for the tardiness of this critique, so many exciting events in a row, holidays and work squeezed in between interrupted completion of my critique. Joyfully with retirement on the horizon, I will finally catch up with my life.
