The Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club
Open Show 10th July 2016
Judge: Miss Julie Joyce (JANJUJONS)
Firstly I would like to Thank the Officers & Committee for all the hard work they put in to producing such an amazing show. Special Thanks go to Joan & Fred Gadd for putting myself & Dad up overnight.
Also a huge THANK YOU to the members of the prestigious Club for allowing me the Honour of Judging my first Breed Club Show.
I truly had an amazing day & the support from Exhibitors & Spectators made for a fantastic atmosphere.
Lastly Thank you to my Ring Stewards Peter & Steve who did an outstanding job, making sure that things kept running smoothly.
Generally the quality of the Exhibits was great, just one or two a bit heavier than I like, but that is just my opinion. The one thing I found encouraging was the muscle tone & definition, Inner Thigh Muscle in particular was good in most & it certainly showed when they were on the move. Keep up the good work.
