DOG CRITIQUE
What a fantastic I day had at my first CC awarding show. It was made more enjoyable with an entry of 138 dogs and I would like to extend my sincere thanks to every exhibitor who entered their dogs. I had some really top drawer dogs to Judge and the day just seemed to fly by. My principal winners were all standard dogs, a good blend of bull and terrier without exaggerations. I would like to thank the Officers, Committee and Ring Stewards for helping to make my day a memorable one.
MINOR PUPPY DOG 12 (3)
White & Owens JAKIERANS BLACK BULLTYKE. B/Br young dog, excels in quality. Lovely condition. Strong handsome head. Good bite. Level topline. Nice front. Developing good rear quarters. Moved and handled well.

King’s STAFFWIZE SPLIT DECISION
PUPPY DOG 18 (1)
Stanway’s WAYSTAFF STRIKES BACK. What an outstanding pied puppy. A real pleasure to put my hands on this young dog – if he’s been a little more mature I would not have hesitated to award a top honour. Great head, good bite, front, topline, back end. I am quite sure this dog will go all the way. BEST PUPPY IN SHOW.
Callaghan’s BOURTIE WOT A BOY B/Br. Another top drawer puppy with a strong head, good bite, in good condition, cracking front, good spring of rib. Moved and handled expertly.

Hockley’s KIMSTAFF REGAL RAMIREZ
MAIDEN DOG 7 (1)
Jones’ MAXSTA HOT SHOT. B/Br of good blend bull & terrier. In fine condition, he will shine as he matures. Lovely strong head with ample underjaw, correct bite. Good front and rear end – a tad long at the moment but will improve visually when he ribs up.
Gillard & Wiggins’ KEWAUNEE JOHN SMITH. B/Br carrying a lot of the 1st place attributes but not quite strong enough for me. An all round nice type of dog.

Streeter VALE OF BRYN RHYS. Black and white pied – a pleasing dog to go over in superb condition. A credit to the owners – much the same attributes as 1 but just needs a bit more in the front.
Hancock’s HASWETH MAJOR TOM
LIMIT DOG 31 (1)
Ccreaney’s BOURTIE RED PROSPECT. A red dog of outstanding quality and just what you would expect from this Kennel. Cracking head carrying ample underjaw and correct dentition.

OPEN DOG 22 (3)
Gilmour’s BRITSTAFF BY JOVE OVER DUMBRITONimp. A red dog that fits the standard in every department with outstanding balance and breed type. Correct bite, good underjaw and head shape. Strong powerful construction – he moved around the ring with a presence of a proper showman and I had no hesitation in awarding this superb dog the DOG CC and he went on the take BEST OF BREED agreed upon by both my co-judge and myself.
