ou would think with just three outings to<br />
Yreport in the month of July that it might<br />
be a rather quiet month? Not when they are<br />
three Championship Shows providing us with a<br />
raft of new Champions …<br />
One of the more popular and picturesque<br />
settings for many is Windsor Castle, and it<br />
is there that we start this month with the<br />
Windsor Championship Show. Judge on this<br />
occasion was someone I refer to as ‘a very<br />
Bull Terrierfied all-rounder’, - Simon Parsons.<br />
A recently crowned Champion came out on<br />
top on the day, with Best Of Breed and a fifth<br />
Bitch CC going to Cox’s tri-colour girl, - Ch.<br />
Coxgal Oiche Angel (Irish Ch. Badlesmere<br />
Ballyhooligan x Uels Mini The Minx). She<br />
later went on to claim runner-up spot in the<br />
Terrier Group, so great credit on a fabulous<br />
performance, - lovely to learn of another one<br />
of our breed doing well in the Terrier ring.<br />
Another new Champion also topped the<br />
dog list, when Leesley’s Ch. Lydsyll The<br />
Untouchable (Bullyview Entertainment At<br />
Lydsyll x Dajast Bedazzled) picked up his<br />
fourth CC.<br />
Two more coloureds just missed out on the<br />
top awards, but still went away with the<br />
Reserve CC’s. First of all Walker and Clacher’s<br />
black brindle dog, Odakota’s Black Hawk<br />
(Ch. Teirwgwyn Son Of A Gun At Meilow x<br />
Astasia Natsumi), and for the ladies, Sewards’<br />
red girl Padhen Precious Pearl (Ch. Kalsar<br />
Sweet William x Bullysoul Angel Eyes).<br />
We round off the day with another coloured,<br />
indeed another red, - with the Best Puppy<br />
going to Sheppard and Howes’ dog -<br />
Ragnarok Balder At Polanca (Ch. Bilboen<br />
Prince Of Darkness x Bilboen Magical Body At<br />
Ragnarok).<br />
On to the East Of England Championship<br />
Show, and a first judging appointment at this<br />
level for Carolyn Lambert, - no doubt one she<br />
will remember fondly.<br />
As no doubt will the owner of the young lady<br />
who ended the day with Best Puppy, a second<br />
Bitch CC, and Best Of Breed no less! That<br />
owner being Eric Stanley with Eyona Star<br />
At Aricon (Ch. Emred Huntsman x Bonneye<br />
Promise At Aricon).<br />
And I would hazard a guess that the owners<br />
of the top dog winner were pretty pleased as<br />
well, as Aherne’s tri-colour dog Conreniam<br />
Dark Magician (Ch. Silver Bullet The Joker<br />
September 2009<br />
Issue Number 90<br />
Show Winners<br />
July 2009<br />
At Javarke x Topfuel White Haze At Golitha) is<br />
awarded his third and qualifying Dog CC. Many<br />
congratulations to the owners, breeders and<br />
all concerned with the new Champion, - and<br />
thoroughly deserved.<br />
Back to the Show, and pipped at the post with<br />
the Reserve CC’s were Probert’s white dog,<br />
Lamellar Love Me Do At Llanwenarth (Ch.<br />
Alecto Kool Barracuda Of Kilacabar x Trinity Of<br />
Peace), and Draper’s white girl, Emred Zurie<br />
Par Albaeda (Albaeda Mister Milo x Emred<br />
Sweet Loretta).<br />
We end this short but spectacular month at a<br />
Breed Club, judge Frank Dyson running the rule<br />
over exhibits at the Northern Provincial Bull<br />
Terrier Club Championship Show.<br />
He found his Best In Show in Toner’s white<br />
dog, Lamellar Hinderton Lad (Ch. Alecto<br />
Kool Barracuda Of Kilacabar x Trinity Of Peace),<br />
another dog who takes home his third CC this<br />
month, and who can now just like his litter<br />
sister very deservedly call himself a Champion.<br />
Again, congratulations to the Toner family, two<br />
Champions from one litter is not something<br />
that happens regularly to say the least.<br />
Bitch CC, a second in successive shows and a<br />
third in total, went to Stanley’s Eyona Star<br />
At Aricon (Ch. Emred Huntsman x Bonneye<br />
Promise At Aricon). Congratulations to Eric,<br />
who comes back and makes up a Champion<br />
in a matter of weeks after the best part of a<br />
dozen years absence from the show ring …<br />
quite some story!<br />
Pushing very hard for top honours as they<br />
always do, but on this occasion having to<br />
settle for Reserve CC’s, - Jastrzebska’s Polish<br />
bred white boy, Int Ch. Lord Of The Timar<br />
(Ch. Nosrettap Celtic Star At Kilacabar x Int<br />
Ch. Hoza Hanka Timar), and Sewards’ red girl,<br />
Padhen Precious Pearl (Ch. Kalsar Sweet<br />
William x Bullysoul Angel Eyes).<br />
Finally a new name enters the frame with the<br />
Best Puppy award, namely Pettigrew’s black<br />
brindle boy, - Jackamani’s Celtic Thunder<br />
(Ch. Nosrettap Celtic Star At Kilacabar x Dam<br />
not known at time of printing).<br />
Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90 - Page 1
Editorial.<br />
Extreme Or All-Round?<br />
Although I’m someone who deals with many<br />
different Bull Terrier aspects on a day to day<br />
basis, being a Bull Terrier breeder is not one<br />
of them. You can count on one hand the<br />
amount of litters I have personally raised and<br />
been responsible for, and the last of those<br />
was over 10 years ago. In truth the task of<br />
vetting and finding excellent owners for my<br />
puppies used to stress the living daylights<br />
out of me, so I’m quite happy to leave that<br />
to others - there’s no shortage of Bull Terriers<br />
in the world and I’m sure the breed will cope<br />
without one extra person breeding them. Of<br />
course, the fact I no longer have any Bull<br />
Terriers makes breeding rather difficult!<br />
However ...<br />
After reading the previous paragraph, it might<br />
sound a bit odd to say that despite not having<br />
any interest in actively breeding myself, I do<br />
have a very big interest in how the actual<br />
bona fide breeders go about their business.<br />
I do tend to put myself in others’ shoes and<br />
try to second guess them, which direction<br />
will they go in, which dog will they use, what<br />
would I do if I was them etc ... Maybe it’s<br />
something others also do - I don’t know?<br />
One thing in particular that intrigues me, is<br />
what is the thought process undertaken by<br />
breeders prior to choosing their stud dogs - or<br />
more specifically what type of Bull Terrier are<br />
they aiming to produce in the litter?<br />
As we are all too aware, we all have our<br />
own particular ideals and each person tends<br />
to adjust the Breed Standard to suit their<br />
own beliefs, the ‘perfect Bull Terrier‘ in one<br />
persons mind is different to that of the next<br />
person. Therefore it is probably fair to say<br />
that different breeders are aiming to produce<br />
different types of Bull Terrier to varying<br />
degrees.<br />
Many years ago when I got my first Bull<br />
Terrier I started reading any of the breed<br />
books I could find to try and learn a bit<br />
more about them. An observation that was<br />
repeated in many, was that there were four<br />
different types of Bull Terrier within the<br />
overall breed, - the Bull type, the Terrier type,<br />
the Dalmation type and the supposed ideal,<br />
the Middle of the Road type. Each breeder at<br />
the time would probably favour one or the<br />
other type and then breed accordingly.<br />
Maybe many breeders of today do still follow<br />
this strategy, but I personally get the feeling<br />
that when it comes to breeding nowadays,<br />
those four types of Bull Terrier have been<br />
replaced in many breeders minds by two more<br />
generalised types ... Possibly when it comes<br />
to judging as well?<br />
I think these days breeders and/or judges<br />
fall into two camps, those who prefer to<br />
see a very good all round Bull Terrier, not<br />
necessarily a big or spectacular one but<br />
one who has all the bits in the right place<br />
Page 2 - Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90<br />
and gets close to the animal as described<br />
in the Breed Standard. Then there are<br />
those who tend to go for the more extreme<br />
or immediate type of dog who grabs the<br />
attention, very striking virtuous dogs - but<br />
perhaps with their extreme virtues lack in<br />
sheer correctness where conformation and<br />
breed type is concerned.<br />
Of course there’s all manner of in-betweens,<br />
but most people (particularly when judging)<br />
tend to veer to one or the other - the<br />
extreme virtuous animal or the sheer correct<br />
animal. The differences between the two<br />
are probably highlighted best in the show<br />
ring, - the extreme type is very ‘love-hate’<br />
amongst judges, they’re either going to<br />
do exceptionally well or not very well at all<br />
- meanwhile a very good all-round dog won’t<br />
be dismissed so readily by judges and will<br />
tend to prove more consistent.<br />
Which brings us back to the dilemma facing<br />
breeders, do they plan to produce an<br />
extreme type who may greatly appeal to a<br />
smaller pool of judges but alienate others,<br />
or a very all-round correct dog who will<br />
generally do well under a bigger number<br />
of judges. As it is often said that it is the<br />
judges who shape the breed, it is therefore<br />
interesting to see exactly which judges are<br />
having the most influence, of which type of<br />
judge are the majority trying to please?<br />
On the other side of the coin, there will<br />
be others who state that it is indeed the<br />
breeders who shape the breed, that they<br />
simply breed the type of Bull Terrier that they<br />
like themselves irrespective of what judges<br />
may or may not prefer, and simply hope that<br />
enough judges are on the same wavelength.<br />
With a bit of reflection, I think if I was<br />
actively breeding and showing then I would<br />
be in the latter camp - I would block out<br />
trying to breed to impress specific types of<br />
judges, and instead breed to strive for my<br />
own particular ideal, - and of course if judges<br />
didn’t like what I’d come up with, then they’d<br />
obviously be completely wrong ... joke, joke!<br />
As such, I can perfectly understand those<br />
who go about it in a different way - who<br />
maybe take a step back and look at the<br />
overall breed to see what type or what<br />
specific lines tend to do better, and then<br />
simply go and breed around those lines to<br />
produce similar dogs. It is a strategy that has<br />
worked extremely well in the past for many,<br />
and no doubt will continue to be a successful<br />
method into the future. It does get results,<br />
so why complicate matters - just see who is<br />
successful and do as they do ...<br />
But whether the breed is shaped by the<br />
judges or by the breeders, a look over recent<br />
history may give a clue as to which direction<br />
it is going. There are animals of all types,<br />
shapes and sizes who do well, very well in<br />
fact - but the really super-successful dogs,<br />
those that clock up multiple CC’s, Trophy<br />
winners, Terrier Group winners and so on,<br />
- more often than not they look to be the very<br />
correct, outstanding all-round animals without<br />
any great extremities, those who are very<br />
hard to find fault with.<br />
Dogs who are very difficult to fault however<br />
are undoubtedly the hardest to produce, but if<br />
judges are having any influence then it seems<br />
this is the animal they want to see people<br />
breed, - and with good reason, it’s similar<br />
to the one described in the Breed Standard.<br />
There’s a message in there somewhere that<br />
the actual Breed Standard over-rules any<br />
judges or breeders interpretation of it, and as<br />
such the best tactic of all is simply to ignore<br />
everyone and instead just try to produce the<br />
dog the Breed Standard asks for.<br />
The fact that no breeder has ever managed to<br />
do it suggests you might be striving for quite<br />
some time!<br />
Double Money!<br />
Developments afoot on the hunt for old<br />
photographs.<br />
As we all know as covered in last months<br />
issue, I’m on the lookout for photographs to<br />
use in the magazine from before the year<br />
2000, and ideally the years between 1970<br />
and 2000. As such I set a target of 100<br />
photographs to be sent or e-mailed to me<br />
by readers (or indeed anyone else for that<br />
matter) by the start of 2010, and if successful<br />
I have pledged to pay £100 to a Bull Terrier<br />
related cause, which will be decided at the<br />
time.<br />
Well, there’s now a bit more information<br />
to add to that. Over the course of the past<br />
month, a very generous reader - who shall<br />
remain nameless - has offered to match my<br />
own donation if the target can be reached,<br />
and has effectively doubled the sum on offer<br />
to £200, - a lovely gesture I think we’d all<br />
agree.<br />
So in theory there is now twice the incentive<br />
to reach the magical 100 figure, and<br />
remember all that is required is for people to<br />
send me any reasonably decent (or usable)<br />
photographs of any dog or bitch who has<br />
appeared in a UK show ring prior to the year<br />
2000, - it’s perfectly achievable.<br />
For what it’s worth the running total at the<br />
time of writing stands at 22, so another 78 in<br />
the next 4 months reaches the target amount.<br />
Come on folks, don’t sit back and hope others<br />
are going to do enough to reach the target,<br />
I’m not asking for blood or money - a simple<br />
e-mail with photographs attached is all it<br />
would take to do your bit.<br />

A Load Of Bull ...<br />
Starting this month off, at the time of<br />
writing I see the forum has closed down<br />
temporarily in order to obtain a more secure<br />
address, the viruses that have hit the forum<br />
site of late are a worry to all and it’s good to<br />
see the admin guys are taking action.<br />
What the mental state off someone, who<br />
finds joy in doing something that can cause<br />
untold grief both mentally and financially to<br />
potentially thousands of folk who have never<br />
done you harm I can only guess at, mind<br />
blowing?<br />
The bonus of this, and I add quickly if there<br />
is one, is the fact that it gives people time to<br />
calm down a bit - as off late I think some of<br />
the things posted on the forum have gone a<br />
bit too far, better to let things die down a bit.<br />
While still at the start of this months issue I<br />
had a call from Confucius, that well known<br />
Chinese philosopher, he reminded me of<br />
that old saying; ‘While on your climb to the<br />
top, remember those small people you pass<br />
along the way as you may well see them on<br />
your way back down‘. I thought that very<br />
appropriate in today’s world of Bull Terriers.<br />
Another little snippet, exciting times at the<br />
CBTC, I am pleased to announce the launch<br />
of the Clubs new official website, though<br />
in its early stages and not yet complete in<br />
the items for enthusiasts to view, I must<br />
say it looks very professional in its design,<br />
I find the idea of a forum for enthusiasts to<br />
talk about topics connected to the Coloured<br />
Bull Terrier and Club with issues/ideas<br />
exciting, the topic of favourite colour is also<br />
a novel idea, all great news - I thoroughly<br />
recommend you view as soon as possible,<br />
the address, all in lower case.<br />
www.colouredbullterrierclub.co.uk<br />
Northern Provincial Championship Show went<br />
with a bang, two Champions being made up,<br />
a decent entry of I believe in the mid eighties<br />
for judge elect Mr Frank Dyson, Northern<br />
Provincial has always been able to put on a<br />
good event this was no different, it was good<br />
to go back to Woolston, even if it was just<br />
a one off for this Show, though I did miss<br />
the hot grub, which was (I hasten to say<br />
that the committee did inform by giving out<br />
information, that would be the case) replaced<br />
by a good selection of varying produce, the<br />
room was set out in its usual way which<br />
allowed for optimum space for attendees of<br />
both the two and four leg variety. One of the<br />
great benefits of this venue is of course the<br />
parking facilities.<br />
Back to the dogs, it was great to see in<br />
particular to the latter classes in both dogs<br />
and bitches a selection of varying types<br />
for the judge to ponder over, Open Dog<br />
in particular appeared to throw up many<br />
variable options for the judge to deliberate<br />
over, all in all a good day.<br />
I well remember the halcyon days of<br />
Northern Provincial Bull Terrier Club, when it<br />
was a battle to get in the venue on your own<br />
let alone with your dog. To get a seat was a<br />
no hoper, people standing five deep at the<br />
bottom of the ring all straining their necks<br />
for a better view, sitting opposite the judges<br />
table at the bottom all the big names of<br />
the breed, many who are sadly no more. In<br />
my minds eye I still see Ron Scott (Senior)<br />
strutting his stuff in his indomitable style<br />
organising arguably the premier event on<br />
the Club Show scene.<br />
The entry on these occasions a great<br />
improvement on the entry for similar events<br />
country wide nowadays, yes great times and<br />
great days, alas I feel we may have seen<br />
the last of such times. Of course this is just<br />
me reminiscing and most definitely should<br />
not be taken as a slight on a great day run<br />
by a great Club, well done to all winners,<br />
- congratulations to the CC and Reserve CC<br />
winners.<br />
Bournemouth Championship Show saw a<br />
new Champion made up, Lord Of The Timar,<br />
he now joins his litter brother Legendary<br />
Leon in being a UK Champion. Now love or<br />
hate the idea of overseas dogs coming to<br />
the UK, the competition can only be good<br />
for the breed so get used to it. I mentioned<br />
long ago that the breed on the continent<br />
was strong, we’re now seeing the fruition<br />
and development of dedicated breeders<br />
so lets just enjoy the fun, as usual my<br />
congratulation to all concerned.<br />
You know following on from that, if we<br />
us Brits keep exporting and go judging<br />
out there (abroad) and in doing so letting<br />
good stock go overseas and by judging<br />
educating dedicated fanciers, we really<br />
should be proud of ourselves for the part<br />
we and our predecessors have played in<br />
this advancement for the breed. I see no<br />
negative of overseas quality dogs coming to<br />
the UK and doing well.<br />
Must mention the Welsh Kennel Club<br />
Championship Show were all-rounder<br />
Ferelith Somerfield did the duties for both<br />
Standards and Miniatures, another dog<br />
made his title Bullyview Screaming Eagle<br />
- congratulations and well done to all<br />
concerned, also a big well done to all the<br />
other winners and contestants on the day.<br />
I couldn’t attend on the day, but by all<br />
accounts it went well though the sun was<br />
out the duties were carried out inside, soggy<br />
fields? Not a great entry but good sorts to<br />
go over for the judge, WKC is held on a<br />
purpose built site and is possibly - if not the<br />
best - venue for exhibitors to attend, this<br />
venue along with Three Counties where the<br />
view is great are my two outside favourites.<br />
Jane McInnes e-mailed me with information<br />
regards proof of posting. Apparently you can<br />
buy a booklet of forms from the Post Office<br />
who in turn will stamp these forms with the<br />
date on, you must fill the forms in yourself<br />
with the address on prior to them being<br />
stamped. If you’re reading Jane it would be<br />
great if you could supply a copy of these<br />
forms, I would imagine most fanciers and in<br />
particular show goers would be interested<br />
in taking advantage of this system, in<br />
anticipation cheers.<br />
As most of you know at present I’m the<br />
Breed Liaison Officer, but I have to say its<br />
going to be short lived, in fact till the end of<br />
this year. Unfortunate circumstances have led<br />
to me to miss reapplying for the position, for<br />
your information the original information I<br />
found a little ambiguous as to what position<br />
was up for election.<br />
I phoned HQ who said due to maintenance<br />
work on the phone system it would be<br />
necessary for someone to call me back, for<br />
whatever reasons I either missed the call<br />
or I was missed out, - never mind, that’s<br />
life! I understand that there has been two<br />
nominations and voting has taken place. I’m<br />
not aware of the results however I wish the<br />
successful candidate well, I’m sure knowing<br />
both the nominees, our breed will be in safe<br />
hands. All that’s left to say on this topic is,<br />
the Breed Liaison Officer is there to help, be<br />
sure to take advantage of our representative<br />
for the benefit of our breed.<br />
I saw on the forum a request for information<br />
on what the Liaison Officer should do, or<br />
what the job is all about, my own analysis<br />
is that the rep is there to liaise between the<br />
KC and Breed Clubs or individuals on issues<br />
relevant to the breed. One such issue was<br />
the approach to me by a highly regarded guy<br />
in the breed saying how disturbed he was at<br />
the number of midweek days our breed was<br />
scheduled this year. Analysis was provided<br />
that this year in fact if my memory serves<br />
me well, putting it simplistically us taking<br />
our turn, we had a few shows where we are<br />
regularly scheduled week days to balance<br />
that out we have few shows were we have<br />
in recent years been scheduled regularly on<br />
weekends, - the build up was us taking our<br />
turn on the week days with a lot of shows.<br />
However, the result was an initiative for some<br />
thought to be given as to shortening of the<br />
length of the show, i.e. from 4 day shows to,<br />
2 or 3 days so as to cut down the number of<br />
times weekdays would come round for the<br />
Groups. Costs proved to be an issue on this<br />
change and it was thought that would be a<br />
big consideration for the Societies concerned.<br />
I have one thing clear in my mind; the<br />
position of Liaison Officer is not a position<br />
for any personal crusades or vendettas, it is<br />
only for the nominated individual to fight on<br />
issues relevant to and on behalf of the whole<br />
breed and its supporters.<br />
That’s it folks for this month, so as always<br />
keep safe and be prosperous.<br />

Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90 - Page 3
And The Winner Is ...<br />
Northern Provincial<br />
Bull Terrier Club<br />
Open Show<br />
April 12th, 2009<br />
Judge: Mike Thompson<br />
It was with great pleasure I accepted this<br />
appointment. Due to an illness I was unable to<br />
judge in November 2008 as originally planned.<br />
The entry was excellent but as it was Easter and<br />
a really warm and sunny day and the economic<br />
circumstances made to there being quite a<br />
few absentees. Well that’s my version and I’m<br />
sticking to it. I really enjoyed the day with many<br />
fine animals to judge. I was impressed by the<br />
excellent temperaments of all the exhibits, only<br />
two dogs had mouth faults.<br />
BIS: Lamellar Hinderton Lad<br />
BOS: Gaelbull Gorgeous<br />
BP: Odakota’s Black Hawk<br />
Puppy Dog<br />
1. Westwood’s Tulsadoom Abi Albon,<br />
- Heavyweight masculine white dog, correct<br />
mouth, ears well placed, smallest of eyes<br />
creating a mischievous expression, head well<br />
filled with a gently curving profile, adequate<br />
angulations, moved well with drive.<br />
2. Tubb’s Activior Enuff Alredi, - Tri dog with<br />
character, in excellent condition, strong head<br />
filled right up, mouth correct, nice straight front<br />
with good bone, short coupled. Movement hard<br />
to assess.<br />
3. Woods’ Great Crusader At Bullywood.<br />
Junior Dog<br />
1. Buckby’s Benjip Gentle Ben Of<br />
Skjaldemarr, - Strong powerful very masculine<br />
tri, strong head. Slight dip in profile but nice<br />
Roman finish, correct mouth nice large teeth,<br />
moved well, holding his excellent topline, nice<br />
catlike feet, he loved his handler who showed<br />
him well.<br />
2. Ashton’s Bulaceys Basils Big Bang,<br />
- Middle of the road w/br, excellent expression.<br />
Not happy with himself so it was difficult to<br />
assess all his virtues, correct mouth. Would<br />
prefer slightly more profile. Moved quite well<br />
when settled.<br />
Maiden Dog<br />
1. Maher’s Bark At The Moon, - Big masculine<br />
dog, great shoulders and neck, well placed ears,<br />
good expression. Would prefer a little more<br />
profile. Mouth correct, nice feet, correct tail<br />
setting, moved OK.<br />
2. Keeble’s Brave Tin Soldier, - Quality white.<br />

build.<br />
3. Fitzmartin’s Ebulient Snow Ghost.<br />
Novice Dog<br />
1. Clacher and Walker’s Odakota’s Black<br />
Hawk, - Most elegant b/br, in superb condition,<br />

profile, large teeth in a perfect scissor bite,<br />
watch out for this 9 months dog in the future,<br />
moved well, well handled (Best Puppy).<br />

There is something special about judging a<br />
Club’s Trophies. At Notts and Derby BTC Limit<br />
and Trophy Show I was pleased to accept the<br />
invitation to judge the Warburton Trophy, which<br />
is an invitation to all 1st prize winners from the<br />
preceding year’s Club Shows.<br />
The Committee at this Show make everyone so<br />
welcome.<br />
I found the winner in Brown’s Meridianview<br />
Monkey Boy (Breeder Keighley) by Jayston<br />
Makin Waves At Meridianview x Meridianview<br />
Drive Me Wild. - 15 months old very smart,<br />
small, compact dog with perfect brindle/white<br />
markings. Good, not exaggered head filled<br />
through to broad muzzle. Correct mouth, small<br />
dark eye and neat ears right on top. This dog<br />
has a straight front, good bone, lovely feet,<br />
well sprung rib, and oh joy a short back. He<br />
is in beautiful conditon and a lovely bend<br />
of stifle means he moves well fore and aft.<br />
Lovely correct length and breadth of tail. He<br />
is also immaculately presented and handled in<br />
complete tune with his owner.<br />
Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90 - Page 5
BOS Morgans’ Romagna Parisienne<br />
Walkway (2½ years) by Marshelsea Horatio<br />
ex Ch. Romagna Memphis Belle. - Glossy dark<br />
brindle/white perfectly marked. Another one<br />
in gleaming condition carrying just the right<br />
amount of weight for her size. Beautifully<br />
handled to make the most of her many<br />
attributes. She has a good profile, filled muzzle<br />
and good underjaw. Very slight mouth fault.<br />
Excellent small dark eye and correct ear<br />
carriage. Small and compact with good bone,<br />
nice feet, lovely length of neck sweeping to<br />
good shoulder. Short back and shapely quarters.<br />
Tail set correct if slightly long. She moved with<br />
drive and kept her topline. Standing alongside<br />
each other I was very pleased with their quality<br />
and the dog won by a whisker.<br />

Open Show<br />
May 2nd, 2009<br />
Judge: Mrs Angela Goodwin<br />
(Ounsdale)<br />
Best of Breed, Best Puppy and Best in Show was<br />
Walker & Clatcher’s, Odakota’s Black Hawk.<br />
S. Ch. Teirwgwyn Son Of A Gun At Meilow<br />
D. Astasia Natsumi<br />
A black brindle of many virtues, for me the main<br />
one. The overall picture, the out line is good<br />
with clean lines, angulation throughout was<br />
correct. He is a dog with a strong head but not<br />
over cooked in profile and fill, he has a correct<br />
bite, his expression for a coloured is quite keen,<br />
his neck is long and set well on good shoulders<br />
which lead to a straight front, his body is<br />
shapely and short backed, rear angulation is<br />
good, he stands on good feet. Front movement<br />
was good but rear a little close, topline at the<br />
moment does not always hold while moving, I<br />
would have preferred more bone and stronger<br />
ears which may well improve with maturity,<br />
though I feel stronger/bigger quarters may<br />
elude him. My overall impression of him is of a<br />
quality dog that has a bright future.<br />
Reserve Best of Breed and Best Opposite Sex<br />
was Musson’s Odakota’s Kuruka.<br />
S. Ch. Teirwgwyn Son Of A Gun At Meilow<br />
D. Astasia Natsumi<br />
Litter sister to Black Hawk. Very similar in type<br />
and colour to her brother, again I found her to<br />
be correct in angulation throughout, she has<br />
profile which is better on her black side, fill in<br />
her head is good, she has a correct bite and<br />
her expression is good, again her neck is long<br />
on good shoulders and straight front, a shapely<br />
body with a well angled strong rear, good feet<br />
and adequate bone completed the picture. On<br />
the move she is close but free moving.<br />

My thanks to the Coloured Club for giving me<br />
the opportunity to judge the Miniatures at their<br />
Show and for the excellent hospitality shown to<br />
me. I had heard that this Club’s hospitality was<br />
second to none and this proved to be the case.<br />
My thanks also to the exhibitors who accepted<br />
my decisions with good grace.<br />

S. Ch. Seaquest Mr Bombastic<br />
D. Warbonnet Blue Pistolet<br />
R/w with dark wicked eye, a little over the<br />
measure but balanced all through. Presented<br />
in good hard condition. Strong well filled head<br />
with lovely profile and best of mouths. Nice<br />
round bone, strong fore chest and good body<br />
shape with short back and good tailset. Best<br />
Dog, lost out to my BOB on movement. He<br />
seemed more interested in what was going on<br />
around him rather than the job in hand, but I<br />
am sure he will have his day now the outdoor<br />
show season is upon us.<br />
2. Vickers’ Duvessa Red Cloud.<br />
S. Ch. Seayess Smart Love<br />
D. Turnstyles Lady At Duvessa<br />

D. Bullypins Mayissa<br />
Dark brindle/white, a quality bitch from the top<br />
drawer, put down in pristine condition. Showing<br />
lovely balance to size, a real Bull Terrier in<br />
miniature. Powerful yet feminine head with turn<br />
and fill, a perfect mouth and ears bang on top<br />
which she used well. Long strong neck to good<br />
shoulders and short back with good topline held<br />
well on the move which she did in true jaunty<br />
style coming and going, never stopped showing<br />
herself. Pleased to award her BOB against a<br />
very good dog. In the challenge for Best in<br />
Show the referee (who I was surprised to find<br />
was an exhibitor who had shown under me) had<br />
to be called as I felt that although the standard<br />
BOB was a lovely puppy he was not as near<br />
finished as the Mini, being still a little loose all<br />
round. Unfortunately the referee disagreed but<br />
as a Man United supporter I am used to that!!<br />

D. Badlesmere Becoming<br />

have admired him as a pup throughout his<br />
adulthood, has deserved every CC he has won.<br />

On Peru<br />
Perseverance pays as<br />
the Calderon family<br />
set the standards.<br />
W<br />
e – Flor <strong>Orme</strong>no de Calderon, our<br />
son Cesar Calderon, daughter-inlaw<br />
Paola Guimac, and me Cesar<br />
Calderon Senior, began breeding Bull Terriers<br />
with two girls that we imported in October 2000,<br />
from our friends Gabriel and Sylvia Lima of the<br />
Bullicor kennel in Mexico. They were both by<br />
the 1999 Silverwood Trophy Winner, Multi Ch.<br />
Huberts Carlitos ROM, namely Alhambre Royale<br />
and Cuba Libre.<br />
This was the start of what proved to be a<br />
great challenge for us, firstly dealing with the<br />
responsibility of having such a great bloodline<br />
to forward, - but also having to learn about the<br />
Bull Terrier breed themselves, their distinctive<br />
temperament and behaviour. Over the years<br />
however, the breed has won our hearts more<br />
than we had ever expected, we would only raise<br />
Bull Terriers now … we really love them!<br />
Our first litter was born in June 2001 out of our<br />
girl Alhambra Royale, who was bred in Mexico<br />
with Spanish/Mexican Ch. Kilacabar Kwiksilver<br />
Among Napier. The following year one of that<br />
litter – Eva De <strong>Chaudron</strong> <strong>Orme</strong> – won us our<br />
first Peruvian Ranking Prize, a Best Opposite<br />
Sex. It was amazing, we could not believe it<br />
and from that point we have continued with our<br />
passion for the breed.<br />
In September 2003 we then imported from<br />
our friend Kate Fletcher in Canada (Bullovers<br />
Kennel) our third Bull Terrier, our beloved Multi<br />
Ch. Rathers Samson Bullover, - and ‘Sam’ as he<br />
is more fondly known has been a great success.<br />
In March of the same year our first home-bred<br />
stud dog was born from an interbred litter<br />
– Sp/Mex Ch.Kilacabar Kwik Silver Among Napier<br />
x Multi Ch. Eva De <strong>Chaudron</strong> <strong>Orme</strong>. We named<br />
him Huajgra, which in Peruvian Indian language<br />
means ‘symbol’.<br />
Then in August 2004 came our outstanding<br />

We have devoted a lot of time and energy to<br />
improve the standard of the Bull Terrier breed,<br />
so that it can be recognised as one of the best<br />
for standard, conformation and temperament<br />
in Peru. We can proudly say that we feel we’ve<br />
achieved our intentions, the results speak for<br />
themselves - the breed is among the best in<br />
the Peruvian rankings.<br />
At present we have 6 lovely girls and 5<br />
awesome boys, and during these years we have<br />
raised 16 Bull Terrier litters. The bloodlines of<br />
most influence to our own breeding program<br />
are the English Kilacabar, the Canadian<br />
Bullovers and at present the American Corsaire.<br />

UPC Tests.<br />
Here’s something that might interest a<br />
few people, perhaps more those who are<br />
within reasonable distance of the Cheshire<br />
area.<br />
Linda Bland has very kindly passed on<br />
some information that she was herself<br />
given, and it relates to an Animal centre<br />
based in Tarporley, Cheshire called<br />
Pinmoore Animal Laboratory Services Ltd.<br />
According to the company’s website, they<br />
do Urine Protein Creatinine tests for just<br />
£10, which although I can’t personally<br />
vouch for them, - does appear to be a<br />
good deal for people of the Bull Terrier<br />
breed.<br />
Most readers will already be aware of<br />
the significance of a UPC reading, but for<br />
those who aren’t I’d recommend popping<br />
along to the Bull Terrier Health UK website<br />
– or the Notts & Derby District BTC<br />
website – both of whom give a very good<br />
general overview of why a UPC reading is<br />
very important to the breed.<br />

Happier Times ...<br />
Annabel with Alfie<br />
Bull Terrier<br />
Attack …<br />
After Alfie, another very<br />
unfortunate story involving a Bull<br />
Terrier, or at least a dog being<br />
described as a Bull Terrier.<br />
According to a brief little snippet<br />
in Dog World (August 21st),<br />
two Norfolk Terriers were said<br />
to have been attacked by a Bull<br />
Terrier. The two dogs were bitten<br />
quite badly apparently and the<br />
report suggests that it took a<br />
number of bystanders to drag<br />
the Bull Terrier away from them.<br />
Thankfully after treatment both<br />
dogs are recovering, as is their<br />
owner who sustained minor<br />
injuries.<br />
Oddly enough, although the Bull<br />
Terrier was found to have been<br />
micro-chipped, those listed as his<br />
owners denied that he belonged<br />
to them and as such the decision<br />
was taken to put the dog to<br />
sleep.<br />
Details are obviously very sparse,<br />
but this seems a strange one.<br />
A Bull Terrier wandering around<br />
on his own attacks two other<br />
dogs, he isn’t owned by those<br />
he’s registered to, and he ends<br />
up dead. Fair enough he could<br />
have been an absolute lunatic,<br />
but many Bull Terriers do not mix<br />
with other dogs and they have<br />
been known to engage in the odd<br />
battle here and there - it seems a<br />
very harsh and brutal reaction to<br />
end his life?<br />
From Agony to Ecstasy and<br />
back for Alfie and Annabel.<br />
may be wrong, but I think this is the first time that I have ever<br />
had to re-write a piece after circumstances within it have altered<br />
I so dramatically. It concerns a young Bull Terrier from Sunderland<br />
called Alfie, and let’s just say both he and his owner have really been<br />
through a torrid time of late.<br />
Alfie went missing whilst out walking during a downpour with his owner<br />
Annabel Nielson, and despite her frantic attempts over the course of<br />
several hours, - she could not find Alfie anywhere. Annabel states ‘In<br />
desperation I started leafleting cars in local shopping centres, homes<br />
and car parks, put adverts in local papers, put posters up all over the<br />
area, and registered him on various missing dog websites’. Yet despite<br />
this still no sign of Alfie after a further week of searching high and low.<br />
Annabel adds, ‘I didn’t think he was coming home and I certainly didn’t<br />
think I would get him back’.<br />
Bully<br />
Bits<br />
But after eight agonising days<br />
searching for Alfie, Annabel<br />
received a call from a local<br />
fisherman called Wheatley<br />
Smith, who said he, his son<br />
and a friend had spotted<br />
Alfie stranded on some rocks<br />
in the River Wear. Annabel<br />
immediately called the Fire<br />
Brigade to the scene while in<br />
the meantime Mr Smith tried<br />
to get Alfie to safety.<br />
He said, ‘I saw the dog upstream on the opposite side of the river. I<br />
was pretty much born on these river banks and lived there as I was<br />
growing up so I know them well. I tried to get down the bank to him<br />
but because it was so wet all the ground crumbled away. So I had to<br />
grab hold of some foliage and ended up sliding down.<br />
When I got there he wasn’t happy and he couldn’t see properly, so I<br />
tried to calm him down – which he did eventually just as his owner<br />
arrived, he was understandably very pleased to see her!’<br />
Minutes later the Fire crew arrived and winched Alfie to safety, from a<br />
spot ironically just 100 metres from where he went missing.<br />
Wheatley adds, ‘He’s a miracle dog because the water levels over the<br />
eight days he was missing were very bad’.<br />
As for Alfie himself, eight days stranded in and around the River Wear<br />
without food had taken its toll. He emerged well over a stone in weight<br />
lighter, had several cuts around his chest and had worn his feet and<br />
nails to stumps trying to clamber to safety, but still in seemingly much<br />
better condition than he could have been under the circumstances.<br />
Originally that was the end of the story, a happy ending where despite<br />
his ordeal Alfie was safe and on the mend - as Annabel states ‘I really<br />
didn’t think I was ever going to get Alfie home alive’.<br />
Sadly the happy ending was short lived as just a week or so later Alfie<br />
became unwell and was taken to the vets, who treated him with antivomit<br />
medication. This however made no difference to Alfie’s condition,<br />
indeed his health deteriorated rapidly over the course of the following<br />
days and he very sadly died. Later tests showed he had swallowed a<br />
foreign body that had torn his intestines - leading to a serious case of<br />
peritonitis.<br />
A distraught Annabel said - ‘We are just devastated beyond words, it<br />
was such a shock. The support we had from people when we were<br />
searching was fantastic, and just as much when he returned home - he<br />
really was our little Angel of the North’.<br />
It’s difficult to know exactly what Alfie has endured over those eight<br />
desperate days fighting for survival in the River Wear, but there is no<br />
doubt he typifies the Bull Terrier spirit to a tee, - as we know the breed<br />
is renowned for its resilience, and he obviously has it by the truckload.<br />
Sadly he’s endured just that bit too much than he could withstand, what<br />
a great shame for both him and his owner.<br />

hen I first started to include the<br />
older critiques in <strong>BTM</strong>, I think I Wmentioned<br />
that the ones I had were<br />
from from the early to mid 1990’s. Well that is<br />
now not the case, I’ll explain …<br />
A few months ago Mrs Clemmit, who is a long<br />
time fanatic of the breed, very kindly supplied<br />
me with some older show catalogues and a<br />
scrap book full of critique cuttings from very<br />
old issues of Dog World. These are from even<br />
further back than everything I already had,<br />
maybe even a good 15 years further back, and<br />
believe me there are some very interesting<br />
goodies amongst them.<br />
So what I thought I’d do was start featuring all<br />
the older critiques etc from Mrs Clemmit, before<br />
I get back to the 1990’s ones, - to try to keep<br />
them in some kind of rough order. I’ll say right<br />
off however, ‘rough order’ are the key words<br />
here, they look to be from the same era but<br />
there’s no chance whatsoever they’ll be featured<br />
in exactly the right order as most have no dates<br />
on them.<br />
So we’ll start with a bang, and where better<br />
than a Bull Terrier Club Trophy Show, - this is<br />
the 1979 event with the added bonus of the<br />
Open Show critique as well. Maybe if you go<br />
back far enough in your own dogs’ pedigrees,<br />
you’ll find some of those mentioned here …<br />
Many thanks to Mrs Clemmit for her generosity,<br />
if readers are even half as interested in Bull<br />
Terrier history as I am, then what she has<br />
supplied will come as an absolute treat.<br />
Without any further ado …<br />
Bull Terrier Club<br />
Open & Trophy Show<br />
1979 Event.<br />
The Bull Terrier Club held an Open Show<br />
at White Waltham Place. Mouths on the<br />
whole seemed to be improving which cannot<br />
be said for movement, which was almost<br />
universally bad. I have always felt that a sound<br />
temperament was essential in a Bull Terrier<br />
and this Show and the Trophies which followed<br />
it were remarkable in that there was not one<br />
single argument between any two dogs in<br />
the whole day. Obviously a very good sign.<br />
Unusually for these times the bitches in the<br />
show did not match the dogs.<br />

J.B. Law (Judge)<br />
REGENT TROPHY<br />
I much enjoyed judging with Mrs Schuster.<br />
We were of like mind looking for the same<br />
virtues.<br />
We first went over the dogs. Ch. Brobar<br />
Backchat is a lovely type, standing still. It was<br />
unfortunate that we were unable to assess his<br />
movement due to lameness behind.<br />
Ch. Kearby’s Jacobite Of Geham also has<br />
a great head, and very short back but his<br />
movement and mouth peg him back in this<br />
company. Moatvale Knight Valiant has<br />
a super head but his quarters are too light<br />
to balance it, he lacks bend of stifle, hind<br />
movement not good. Ch. Barrowboy Of<br />
Badlesmere was Best Dog and BOS. He is a<br />
well balanced dog, well put together and moved<br />
well. Compared to his rivals his head is not<br />
outstanding, but is still a good strong head with<br />
a good eye and perfect mouth.<br />
I have never seen a better line-up in depth than<br />
the bitches. We had no hesitation in giving the<br />
Regent Trophy to Harpers Holiday, a quality,<br />
beautifully balanced girl, lovely classical head,<br />
good neck and front, short back, very good
quarters, very shapely body, good mover. Ch.<br />
Brobar White Satin Of Meregis, another<br />
top class bitch, failed slightly to the winner in<br />
lay of shoulder and length of back. She moved<br />
well behind. Ch. Souperlative Silhouette is a<br />
grand heavyweight, not as shapely or as good<br />
mover behind as Holiday. Harpers Hotgrove<br />
At Lenster - Holiday’s sister - is another<br />
beauty, again not quite her equal in shape or<br />
movement, but what a triumph to breed two<br />
such good bitches. Happy Hippolyta, not quite<br />
such a classical head, super front, still immature<br />
in body moved well behind. Souperlative<br />
Swiss Miss is a very pretty quality bitch<br />
standing still. I have only criticised these lovely<br />
girls in comparison with the winner. The only<br />
real fault with all of them is the classic one, -<br />
they are not mine! It was a joy to go over them<br />
which I shall always remember.<br />
Mrs Schuster and I judged the Charlie Girl Cup<br />
for Best Mover. Curraneye Jackie Boy Master<br />
came from the Ormandy Jug (Dogs) to win. He<br />
is a true free mover who really uses his hocks,<br />
striding out to cover the ground well. This is an<br />
example of the movement all breeders should<br />
be aiming for.<br />
M. Treen (Judge)<br />
It was a great pleasure to judge this trophy<br />
with Mrs Treen and it is always pleasant when<br />
one is in agreement on the placings. We judged<br />
the four dogs first and the winner was Ch.<br />
Barrowboy Of Badlesmere, a heavyweight<br />
white with a good, strong if not spectacular<br />
head , excellent eye, straight front, correct<br />
mouth and has well-made, strong quarters, in<br />
first class condition. Moved well if a trifle wide<br />
behind.<br />
Next the bitches - these were indeed something,<br />
what a line-up! The final choice was between<br />
Harpers Holiday and Ch. Brobar White<br />
Satin Of Meregis. The winner, Harpers<br />
Holiday, is a really beautiful little bitch, so well<br />
balanced, nicely filled head, good profile and<br />
eye, neat ears, extra short back and well shaped<br />
quarters. When she settled put on a very good<br />
show and moved up and down so well, a real<br />
pleasure to watch. Ch. Brobar White Satin Of<br />
Meregis, is an elegant bitch, clean well-filled<br />
head, good neck and shoulders, nice bend of<br />
stifle and beautiful white coat, moved quite well<br />
but lacked the sparkle of Holiday.<br />
Barrowboy and Holiday then met and the winner<br />
of the Regent Trophy was Harpers Holiday on<br />
her overall quality and balance. Congratulations<br />
to her owner, Mrs Carruthers-Smith and her<br />
breeder Miss Vick. Barrowboy winning the<br />
Coverwood Trophy for Best Dog.<br />
The Charlie Girl Trophy for movement went to<br />
Curraneye Jackie Boy Master, who put on<br />
his usual good show and really strides out with<br />
drive.<br />
Joy S. Schuster (Judge)<br />
ORMANDY JUG (Dogs)<br />
I enjoyed judging with Mr Gordon Smith from<br />
Canada and we were in complete agreement<br />
all the way. Our winner, the br/w Moatvale<br />
Knight Valiant, is an outstanding dog of great<br />
quality, of medium size, he excels in breed<br />
type, has a beautiful head, fill and turned, with<br />
good length. His mouth is so fractionally wrong<br />
as to be negligible. He has a short back, is<br />
well put together and very shapely. Front and<br />
hindquarters decent. Hind movement not good<br />
but I think his handler moves him too quickly.<br />
Would like to see him pay more attention and<br />
really stand up and show.<br />
Runner-Up the b/br Ch. Kearby’s Black<br />
Buck, always a favourite of mine and an<br />
excellent example of breed type, short and<br />
square, well made and a good mover both<br />
ways. His head is strong and well filled but<br />
lacks the profile of Knight Valiant. If he had a<br />
correct mouth he would indeed be very hard<br />
to beat.<br />
Sadly, the beautiful white Ch. Brobar<br />
Backchat went lame, otherwise he would<br />
surely have been in contention. However, on<br />
the day, it was two coloureds at the top, a<br />
rarity indeed.<br />
Phyllis Holmes (Judge)<br />
I consider it a great honour and a privilege<br />
to have been invited to judge the Ormandy<br />
Jug for Dogs. Adding to this honour was the<br />
opportunity of judging with the distinguished<br />
Mrs Phyllis Holmes.<br />
The exhibits varied a great deal in that we had<br />
some with very few faults and not great virtues<br />
and some with outstanding virtues and rather<br />
obvious faults.<br />
My co-judge and I had no difficulty deciding<br />
on Moatvale Knight Valiant for the winner<br />
and Ch. Kearby’s Black Buck as runner-up.<br />
Knight Valiant has an exceptional head, one of<br />
the best I have seen. He has a straight front,<br />
good bone and a very short, strong backline.<br />
He is extremely typy and all Bull Terrier. I would<br />
have liked better rear movement and his mouth<br />
was slightly off.<br />
Black Buck is another typy dog. His head<br />
though was not quite as exceptional as the<br />
winners. His rear movement was better but his<br />
mouth was incorrect.<br />
Gordon R. Smith (Judge)<br />
ORMANDY JUG (Bitches)<br />
I do not think that there can ever have been<br />
a better line-up for this Trophy, each and every<br />
one a truly lovely animal. My co-judge and l<br />
were agreed that the decision lay between<br />
four animals; Happy Hippolyta, Ch. Brobar<br />
White Satin Of Meregis, Harpers Holiday<br />
and Ch. Souperlative Silhouette. In these<br />
we had a wide variation in maturity, Hippolyta<br />
and Holiday was standing next to Silhouette<br />
and thus accentuated this point.<br />
Happy Hippolyta has beautiful lines, a lovely<br />
neck, filled and turned head. She needs to<br />
body up a bit and maturity will help a lot. She<br />
moved well.<br />
Harpers Holiday was the star girl, an<br />
absolutely enchanting, eye-catching bitch,<br />
lovely head, wicked eye, dead straight front<br />
and very good movement when her owner<br />
managed to control her properly. We moved<br />
her several times but it was not until later in<br />
the Regent Trophy that Holiday decided she<br />
knew all about it and showed how well she can<br />
move. She still has a young and immature look<br />
but would, I feel sure, have carried the day<br />
given another two or three months.<br />
Ch. Brobar White Satin Of Meregis has a<br />
mature and finished air, a lovely head and neck<br />
and moved really well. I find her short on the<br />
leg and rather long in back but a truly lovely<br />
bitch nonetheless.<br />
Our winner was Ch. Souperlative<br />
Silhouette, a mature bitch with very good<br />
bone, exceptional spring of rib and powerful<br />
quarters, strong, filled head with a nice turn<br />
and a perfect mouth. Her shoulders are not as<br />
good as Holidays, her head is stronger although<br />
not as dramatic. Carrying just the right amount<br />
of weight, she is at the peak of her maturity. On<br />
the basis of this finish and maturity, we agreed<br />
that Silhouette should be awarded the Bitch Jug.<br />
We disagreed over the runner-up, I felt very<br />
strongly that Holiday had every positive virtue<br />
and lacked only a little bit of weight and the<br />
accompanying solidity that comes with maturity.<br />
Her ultra short back and perfect balance compared<br />
favourably with the rather short legs and<br />
longer back of White Satin, again maturity came<br />
into it. While I preferred Holiday, Mr Horder<br />
chose White Satin. The referee gave the vote<br />
to Harpers Holiday and after seeing her<br />
subsequent performance in the Regent Trophy,<br />
we were both satisfied that justice had been<br />
done.<br />
I cannot remember any occasion when so many<br />
truly exceptional animals have had to stand<br />
unplaced. All are blessed with many positive<br />
virtues and in these days when we have so<br />
many mouth problems, it is noteworthy that<br />
there was not one bad mouth among them, all<br />
have perfect scissor bites.<br />
M. O. Sweeten (Judge)<br />
Having attended many Trophy Shows<br />
over the years since I was a boy, I was very<br />
honoured indeed to judge the 1979 Ormandy<br />
Jug for Bitches with Mrs Sweeten. What a task<br />
this turned out to be, with the most superb lineup<br />
of bitches that one could wish to see.<br />
After examining the exhibits in turn and then<br />
watching them move, my co-judge and I were<br />
in full agreement in narrowing down the field<br />
to four. Happy Hippolyta, a really top quality<br />
bitch with outstanding virtues, was for me today<br />
just shaded by three other contenders that<br />
we had selected. Harpers Holiday, superb<br />
youngster with well filled head and very good<br />
profile, nice neat ears, good length of neck,<br />
well laid shoulders, short back, good angulated<br />
quarters. Although she was asked to move<br />
altogether eight times for my co-judge and<br />
myself, not once did she move with drive, yet<br />
when Mrs Holmes, the referee, asked her to<br />
move, she really showed us how well she could<br />
perform. This great little bitch I felt was like a<br />
top prize winning rose whose final petals had<br />
yet to unfurl to display her ultimate charms. I<br />
feel sure that another three or four months will<br />
make all the difference.<br />
Ch. Brobar White Satin Of Meregis is yet<br />
another outstanding bitch with beautiful well<br />
filled head, good eye, ear and expression,<br />
good lay of shoulders and topline, very strong<br />
hindquarters with bend of stifle, showed and<br />
made the best of herself the whole time in the<br />
ring and, when asked to move, did so with<br />
drive and trueness both ways. Dog and handler<br />
performed as one unit the whole time in the<br />
ring.<br />
My co-judge and I were in full agreement<br />
that the winner of the Ormandy Jug was Ch.<br />
Souperlative Silhouette, beautiful top quality<br />
bitch with a punishing strong well filled head,<br />
good eye and expression, strong powerful neck<br />
flowing into a superbly balanced well muscled<br />
body with correct angulation, her heavy round<br />
bone and beautiful front proved to be every bit<br />
as good moving as standing.<br />
My choice for runner-up was Ch. Brobar White<br />
Satin Of Meregis, but my co-judge preferred<br />
Harpers Holiday and the referee agreed.<br />
Harpers Holiday then went on to win the<br />
Regent Trophy. My congratulations to her<br />
breeder and owner.<br />

Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90 - Page 13
Trainabull.<br />
Hi<br />
All<br />
to give a talk for Bath Dog<br />
- Another busy month has<br />
passed. I have been asked<br />
and Cats Home as part of their Open Day<br />
on September 6th; I’m very chuffed as this<br />
prestigious event, the Shrink Think Tank has<br />
had celebrities such as Sarah Fisher, Joe<br />
Ingles and Dr Roger Mugford as previous<br />
speakers!<br />
Another of my Bull Terrier rescues, Cassini<br />
- has to have another hair follicle tumour<br />
removed but thankfully my Mini BT Koda has<br />
passed his MOT, so that was welcome news.<br />
A Canine First Aid & CPR class is scheduled<br />
for 19/09/09 and a Clicker Training<br />
Workshop is scheduled for 16/10/09 -<br />
contact me for details of both events.<br />
This month I wanted to share a case which<br />
doesn’t have a happy ending. I want to take<br />
this opportunity to thank Susie and Justine<br />
for their help and support with this and<br />
other cases I asked for advice on: so thank<br />
you ladies, you rock! It rang so many alarm<br />
bells and it really upset me at the time, so<br />
sharing it with you is cathartic for me. As<br />
always names have been changed to protect<br />
client identities.<br />
CASE: Fred, Wilma and the Frenchie.<br />
Lisa, the owner of three dogs, two 10<br />
month old Bull Terriers and a 10 month old<br />
Frenchie - asked me to help her with her<br />
dogs as she couldn’t control them, they<br />
were aggressive toward other dogs and had<br />
bitten one recently and there was a lot of<br />
interdog fighting. Upon closer examination<br />
of the situation when I arrived, it appeared<br />
that Lisa had provided the Bull Terriers with<br />
adequate outdoor shelter and ample garden<br />
space, while the Frenchie lived in the house.<br />
Lisa informed me she intended to mate<br />
the two Bull Terriers as a hobby and she<br />
wanted to show the Frenchie. Lisa showed<br />
me the bite wounds on all the dogs and<br />
the Frenchie had recently had an operation<br />
on a bite wound to his ear. The male Bull<br />
Terrier was a huge, handsome boy who<br />
was as dopey and daft as most bullies<br />
are, however after Lisa informed me his<br />
background it turned out he hadn’t been<br />
correctly socialised, hence the hard bite he<br />
had with the other dogs. It also turned out<br />
he had a grudge against the Frenchie, Fred<br />
would attack the Frenchie, mostly when<br />
there were toys, food or the female around.<br />
The Frenchie as most Frenchies are, was<br />
grumpy a lot of the time and all these dogs<br />
were un-neutered and at the age they all<br />
were had hormones to contend with as well.<br />
Another problem she had was the noise and<br />
lunging they all did when on a walk. They<br />
were walked on the biggest choke chains I<br />
Page 14 - Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90<br />
ever saw and as soon as we left the house<br />
a dog came by and Fred started to lunge<br />
and bark then so did Wilma and Frenchie.<br />
Lisa and her sister could barely hold onto<br />
them and the poor dogs throats were<br />
nearly getting cut in half whilst they were<br />
being yelled at and yanked.<br />
Around the corner there was another dog<br />
so as I was convinced that Fred was giving<br />
distance decreasing signals but was just<br />
slightly rude and Wilma was all noise, I<br />
wanted to see if a different approach would<br />
work.<br />
I asked Lisa and her sister to curve away<br />
from the dog and walk really slowly, this<br />
helps decrease the excitement levels and<br />
gives the other dog the opportunity to<br />
observe the signals given by Lisa’s dogs.<br />
When we reached the other dog there<br />
was no barking, no lunging and Fred was<br />
desperately trying to invite the other dog<br />
to play. This confirmed my initial suspicion,<br />
Fred and Wilma were just plain rude, not<br />
aggressive and likely as a direct result of<br />
improper socialisation and inappropriate<br />
handling.<br />
I was worried about the incorrect gait and<br />
dragging of the hind feet of Wilma and was<br />
beginning to think that this and Wilma’s<br />
small size, lack of muscle and high palate<br />
were signs of LAD and made a mental note<br />
to research more at home.<br />
I advised Lisa to get them all tested at the<br />
vets, blood and urine tests and juvenile hip<br />
dysplasia check for Wilma. I also advised<br />
swapping the choke chains for more<br />
humane harnesses which would give Lisa<br />
better physical control over them and would<br />
not injure their necks and throats, as the<br />
pain they do cause can also contribute to<br />
the behaviours she asked for my help with.<br />
I also suggested she directly supervise<br />
playtime, allow them to play together for<br />
very short periods and to remove all the<br />
toys unless playing 1-2-1 with them to<br />
prevent fights from breaking out over them.<br />
I also advised giving them their treats<br />
separately, especially their bones again<br />
to prevent unwanted behaviours.<br />
Lisa was also advised to NOT breed from<br />
her Bull Terriers for a number of reasons,<br />
including the possibility of Wilma having a<br />
congenital or even inherited disorder. I also<br />
advised that walks be made shorter, slower<br />
and more frequent throughout the day and<br />
to use the polite body movements which<br />
had worked earlier, with no lead yanking or<br />
yelling at them.<br />
Lisa was advised to stop following the<br />
advice she had in her books and from<br />
certain TV programmes and to use the<br />
advice I gave regarding body language.<br />
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/<br />
news/2009/6361.html<br />
This link will take you to a scientific study<br />
proving that the dominance theory is<br />
poppycock when applied to dog behaviour<br />
and I explained this to Lisa, who was<br />
convinced that the methods she currently<br />
used were working, they clearly weren’t<br />
though or else she would not have needed<br />
to call a behaviourist!<br />
I also felt that neutering all of them would<br />
go a long way to making her life easier,<br />
there was underlying tension between<br />
the two males, naturally and having three<br />
adolescent dogs was handful at the very<br />
least.<br />
I also suggested that she build more<br />
positive association between the two males<br />
by not having the Frenchie up on the sofa<br />
as much, maybe have both of them up<br />
together and if Fred showed signs of bad<br />
manners toward Frenchie to give Fred<br />
something else to do and give him lots of<br />
calming signals to help ease any tensions.<br />
Fred should no longer be shoved in his<br />
crate for attacking Frenchie, this would<br />
create more grudges and to instead remove<br />
Frenchie calmly and to not spank Fred.<br />
Wilma should not be allowed to bully either<br />
of them when playing hence the shorter<br />
length playtimes. Lisa did agree and I<br />
referred her to my vets as he is the WEBTC<br />
honorary vet on call for shows.<br />
When I returned a week later she hadn’t<br />
taken them to my vets or her vet, nor<br />
had she implemented any of the changes<br />
and told me there was no change in their<br />
behaviour and that she still wanted to mate<br />
the Bull Terriers. I said I would be happy to<br />
work with her to help rehabilitate the dogs<br />
but I needed the test results from the vets<br />
first and her compliance or else nothing I<br />
suggested would work. Having a feeling that<br />
I was wasting my time I left.<br />
I made numerous calls, sent texts and<br />
emails to attempt to discover how Wilma<br />
was and if she had put changes into place<br />
but my communications were unanswered.<br />
A source told me that she had gone ahead<br />
with the mating but I don’t know what has<br />
happened with these dogs.<br />
See you next month with another case!<br />

Canine Health Concern.<br />
An Interview with Dr Patricia Jordan<br />
Holistic Veterinarian.<br />
Dr Jordan’s book, The Mark of the Beast - Published in 2009.<br />
Q: What made you want to be a vet?<br />
A: I love nature, being in appreciation with the<br />
outdoors, the animals, the sounds of nature,<br />
and I was enthralled with biology and science.<br />
When I went to the vet with our family dog,<br />
I was proactive in trying to understand what<br />
they were doing to him. As I became older,<br />
I felt that veterinary medicine needed more<br />
compassionate members and despite being<br />
discouraged by both my father (who told me<br />
I was not wealthy enough or smart enough)<br />
and my high school counsellor, who said it was<br />
too difficult to get into a school - despite all of<br />
that, I set my sights on getting there.<br />
Q: As a veterinary student in college,<br />
did you notice a high presence of<br />
pharmaceutical and pet food companies?<br />
Was sponsorship by big business evident<br />
to you at that time?<br />
A: Of course - that was the only way we<br />
learned - coming through as wide eyed<br />
senior students, the only book we ever got<br />
on nutrition was from Hills “Science” and of<br />
course the teaching hospital was stocked<br />
with free inventory from Hills. Therefore<br />
all I learned about nutrition was the Hills<br />
propaganda.<br />
Of course, for the vaccines, we were stocked<br />
with free product and I understand this still<br />
continues today, with our most eminent<br />
institutions of higher learning (Tufts, for<br />
example) dolling out the vaccines that cause<br />
the most highly adverse effects.<br />
We got nothing but propaganda when you<br />
think of it, as rarely are your instructors<br />
anything but academic fodder. I think at<br />
North Carolina (NC) we had the only token<br />
practitioner professor in the entire nation<br />
of veterinary schools. NC had a unique<br />
introduction to practical veterinary medicine by<br />
the program that Dr. Ben Harrington started,<br />
coming from his largest Apex Veterinary<br />
Hospital in NC.<br />
All of the rest of the instructors were<br />
academics and we all know who supports<br />
them, their work, and their research grant<br />
funding.<br />
A particular peeve of mine is that “Dinners of<br />
Disinformation” are the continuing education<br />
for veterinarians. For example, pure hogwash<br />
at the Fort Dodge Dinner that I attended,<br />
pushing their latest version of the feline<br />
vaccines and providing junk science at the<br />
feeding trough with an open bar to hear<br />
dribble that is so much propaganda. I have<br />
attended plenty of them and can only say<br />
that I have documented with digital pictures,<br />
tape recordings and video footage that these<br />
programs are about conflict information<br />
Page 16 - Bull Terrier Monthly Issue 90<br />
propaganda and seducing veterinarians into<br />
pushing their drugs and vaccines - a worse<br />
good old boy’s club there never was.<br />
To see this on a much broader scale all you<br />
have to do is attend the national meetings,<br />
which I stopped after nine years of that<br />
nonsense.<br />
It is criminal that any professional is able to<br />
get credit for attending that dribble - and that<br />
propaganda is the only continuing education<br />
most professionals receive.<br />
Also, we would get scholarships, textbooks,<br />
equipment, and free poison for our own<br />
pets, clothes, trips, prizes ... yes when one<br />
calculates the heavy toll that propaganda<br />
has, even the free publications that disguise<br />
themselves as legitimate researched articles,<br />
it is a cycle of professional deception worse<br />
than the unrecognised and unacknowledged<br />
adverse effects of those wares.<br />
Q: When did you start to become<br />
disillusioned with conventional<br />
veterinary medicine?<br />
A: By the time I had been out in practice for<br />
seven years I knew that western medicine not<br />
only didn’t work, but that it was responsible<br />
for making more disease and more death.<br />
I found it de-constructing health rather than<br />
building health. I never did embrace Hills<br />
“Nutrition” and never sold a bag of that<br />
through my practice.<br />
I had never linked the benefits of yearly<br />
immune assaults with over administration<br />
of vaccines, so my patients did not have<br />
the serious amount of disease that I saw<br />
coming from practices that embraced the full<br />
potential of aggressive “preventative health”<br />
measures based on western medicine.<br />
Luckily for me, NC already had the sense not<br />
to support yearly rabies vaccines and thus,<br />
until I went North to Massachusetts, I was<br />
protected from the total immune annihilation<br />
I saw occurring with the most aggressive<br />
vaccination programs imaginable.<br />
The practice in Massachusetts not only<br />
supported over vaccination, and with the<br />
most highly adverse vaccines available, but<br />
they verbally chastised me for spending<br />
any time talking to clients about their pets’<br />
diets, preferring instead to push whatever<br />
they had overstocked from their veterinary<br />
supply company. The experience was so<br />
traumatizing that it was really my first<br />
experience with a host of money doctors or<br />
business veterinarians that are so prevalent in<br />
our profession.<br />
Q: Did you have ‘an awakening’?<br />
A: My awakening came in 1989 when I<br />
saw with my own eyes, an animal-abusing<br />
veterinarian, purposely causing disease with<br />
the use of vaccines and drugs available. He<br />
had used a hormone therapy in a cat and then<br />
charged for working up the mammary problem<br />
it caused. I questioned him on this and he<br />
yelled at me. I later saw him performing<br />
surgeries on congenital defects that were<br />
allowing the congenitally defected animal to<br />
be shown in dog shows. I finally witnessed<br />
him strangle a pet to death and through all of<br />
this, I realized that there was a very ugly truth<br />
in veterinary medicine.<br />
There were those who used these drugs and<br />
vaccines knowing that they would generate<br />
more and more and more money for them<br />
through the propagation of more medical<br />
problems.<br />
It was at that time I left working for that<br />
business veterinarian and opened up my own<br />
practice. I didn’t know how bad the problem<br />
had become until I found myself in the last<br />
three years working once again for another<br />
business veterinarian. I still am traumatized<br />
and, having been licensed in over 13 states<br />
and visiting practices all over the United States<br />
for a six month period, I was very upset to<br />
learn that this money business medicine was<br />
more, much more, prevalent than I could have<br />
imagined.<br />
Sadly, also, I felt betrayed for ironically, there<br />
has been an association with the veterinary<br />
profession being known as “the other family<br />
doctor” and “the compassionate profession”. I<br />
suppose I aged a life time when I realised this.<br />
I also felt more alone than ever.<br />
Q: When did you first see a vaccine<br />
reaction for what it really was, and what<br />
effect did it have on you?<br />
A: I first saw a vaccine reaction when a<br />
company salesman first came in and pressured<br />
me so badly that his vaccines were so safe and<br />
so much better than the ones I had previously<br />
stocked. I allowed him to leave only one tray.<br />
I had a client who brought her cat in and<br />
since I had run out of my preferred vaccine,<br />
I administered that product. I have to be<br />
thankful that the reaction in that patient was<br />
immediate. The owner was worried that her<br />
cat would die, it was a full blown anaphylactic<br />
reaction, and I’m so grateful I was able to help<br />
the cat survive. I was so grateful that kitty did<br />
not die, and he came very close.<br />
You can imagine what I did with those<br />
vaccines. I should have never allowed him to<br />
talk me into using them. Even running out of<br />
the other and for what ever reason, I should<br />
never have administered the vaccines from<br />
the company known to have the most adverse<br />
events.<br />
Later, when I saw animals that were<br />
aggressively over vaccinated yearly and<br />
saw their health destroyed by the time they<br />
were four or five, I knew it was the immune
system’s reaction to these yearly assaults that<br />
was the link with the diseases - autoimmune<br />
disease, cancer, so much chronic disease when<br />
they were aggressively administering vaccines,<br />
drugs, poisons and toxins.<br />
It was only three years ago that I realised<br />
that everything - the demodex we treat, the<br />
fungal infections we treat, the parasites, and<br />
most of the infectious diseases - all were in<br />
actuality coming from the adverse results of<br />
vaccinations.<br />
I mean, you vaccinate a puppy into<br />
immunosuppression and then they break<br />
out with disease. The T cells fall out from<br />
the vaccines and then you get demodex,<br />
parasites, fungal infections. Once I saw<br />
what was happening in those patients, it<br />
was not hard to track the road of pathology.<br />
Looking into the research, it’s all there - the<br />
cancer from the vaccines is not exclusive to<br />
cats and fibrosarcoma. Vaccines are full of<br />
genetic mutators and carcinogens and protein<br />
sequences that are causing the Lyme Disease<br />
Syndrome etc. Also, I could see, once the veil<br />
was removed, just how hard our profession<br />
works to “not see” any effect of what our very<br />
own hands have done.<br />
Once enlightened, I tracked down the research<br />
and I found it. I have almost 250GB of it,<br />
from not only veterinary research but also in<br />
human research papers. I now understand<br />
how much better humans are than dogs and<br />
cats at deflecting genetic transmutations and<br />
mutations (to a certain point).<br />
I realise the much greater assault on the<br />
animals undergoing yearly immune assaults<br />
of vaccine batteries and then the poor quality<br />
of nutrition (which really is the foundation of<br />
good immunity). I then understood why the<br />
problems were so much more frequent in the<br />
animals. I was so frustrated when I realised<br />
that what we do in the name of business is the<br />
biggest form of job security from a profession<br />
that needs a license for the privilege to<br />
practice can hide behind.<br />
Q: Have you had much personal conflict<br />
with conventional veterinarians? (In<br />
the UK, homoeopathic vets have been<br />
attacked for their views.)<br />
A: There is so much angst between<br />
conventional veterinarians and the truth. With<br />
truth comes responsibility and that is simply<br />
too much for most to bear. I mean, I have had<br />
conventional doctors tell me, “I am too old to<br />
learn anything new”. I have heard them say,<br />
“I don’t care, they can’t make me stop,” and<br />
the new vets, who are still under the delusion<br />
that there is only good intentions behind those<br />
who pushed their company’s version of health<br />
into their faces, into their bank accounts, into<br />
their student loans, car payments, exalting<br />
their ego, and the list goes on and on and on<br />
… many can’t see truth.<br />
I have to admit, I now have no tolerance for<br />
them, they can’t face facts, and I can’t stop<br />
finding the research that proves the medicine<br />
and the vaccines and the poor foods are the<br />
bulk of the disease process. Once I realized<br />
that I was “working with the enemy”, that they<br />
don’t call it the medical mafia without reason,<br />
I even called the AVMA and they suggested<br />
that I find another job.<br />
Q: If you were a vet from the future,<br />
here to change and uplift the profession,<br />
what changes would you want to see<br />
happen?<br />
A: I now see where health comes from.<br />
It comes from nutrition. It’s probably no<br />
secret now that veterinary and medical<br />
doctors get little to no nutrition training in<br />
school. I believe that this is because the<br />
pharmaceutical companies are set up for<br />
health de-construction, not health, and<br />
cause more disease. They change the face<br />
of disease but never treat the root of the<br />
disease. I was so surprised to find out that<br />
it was gene theory and certainly not germ<br />
theory that was the key to understanding<br />
health.<br />
Pasteur, I have found, was dreamed into<br />
being credited with how to treat disease.<br />
Instead it was Antoine Beauchamp and his<br />
understanding that the individual’s terrain<br />
(immune system and body mind) determined<br />
health. And then only in the last three years<br />
did I discover that this was through the gene<br />
theory.<br />
Our genes can be affected by the air we<br />
breathe the water we drink and the sunshine<br />
we exist under, and optimal nutrition is the<br />
best vaccine against disease.<br />
I would train the vets of the future in optimal<br />
nutrition, naturopathic medicine using herbal<br />
medicine. Like Hippocrates said: “let food be<br />
your medicine”.<br />
I would embrace the work of Antoine<br />
Beauchamp and understand that the<br />
innate wisdom of the individual is what we<br />
have to support, like Clements Von Piquet<br />
determined. It’s more important what’s in<br />
your kitchen than what’s in your pharmacy …<br />
and harken to the wisdom of Dr. Shannon of<br />
the NIH who stated famously that the only<br />
safe vaccine is the one that is never used.<br />
I am excited as I travel down the path of<br />
energetic medicine and trace out the path of<br />
quantum physics to illuminate the biophotons<br />
in food and intention in our DNA, in unlocking<br />
the real knowledge to working with dis-ease<br />
and dis-harmony, using Homeopathy and<br />
Reiki, Spinal Manipulation, sound, colour and<br />
aromatherapy to effect the shifts towards<br />
cure - and never picking up another synthetic<br />
drug or administering a chemical poison<br />
or injecting a blood poisoning vaccine ever<br />
again.<br />
I look for the day that, as Dr. Richard Pitcairn<br />
wrote in his paper, A Foolish Practice, that<br />
he predicted, “in 50-100 years the idea of<br />
injecting disease to cure disease will be<br />
seen as dangerous as blood letting and pure<br />
mercury administration”. In other words, the<br />
greatest medical assumption ever made will be<br />
looked back upon with shame and horror.<br />
Q: I’ve noticed that there’s a sort of<br />
narcissism amongst scientists. They<br />
seem to only be able to respect fellow<br />
scientists who have letters after their<br />
names. But it seems to me that they’re<br />
mostly parroting out information that<br />
they’ve been told, which may or may<br />
not be true. They’re not thinking for<br />
themselves a lot of the time, and they’re<br />
closed to anything that doesn’t come<br />
from the conventional medical model.<br />
I personally believe that ordinary<br />
people, who don’t have qualifications,<br />
can have more of a handle on the truth<br />
than ‘brainwashed’ scientists. Please<br />
comment!<br />
A: Yes, they don’t call a myopic PhD. “piled<br />
higher and deeper” for nothing! My worst case<br />
examples of malpractice and malfeasance of<br />
cases that I have documented and recovered<br />
(at great personal sickness to myself for every<br />
time I have to even think about them) have<br />
been from highly lettered professionals. One<br />
was in a German Shepherd where a Board<br />
Certified Dermatologist was brought into the<br />
case because I saw so much malpractice. I<br />
can hardly transfer the information in just a<br />
few words.<br />
Another case was of a cat that was being<br />
seen by the most arrogant “boarded fellow”.<br />
I could publish a book just on the severity<br />
of cases that I have found from what I can<br />
only assume are people so blinded, being in<br />
the little hole they operate in. The big picture<br />
could never even be imagined by these<br />
doctors.<br />
I know that they would deny the culpable<br />
responsibility that their myopic vision resulted<br />
in, as they are groomed and stroked in their<br />
ego for growing letters for the most part that<br />
has NOTHING to do with being able to see the<br />
truth hidden in plain sight.<br />
All of those extra years being brainwashed,<br />
submerged in the wrong thinking process, in<br />
the propaganda, in the predictable training.<br />
What more could you expect, when they are<br />
never allowed to even view the big picture?<br />
I will end with a quote from Dr. Harris Coulter’s<br />
prophetic book, Vaccination, Social Violence<br />
and Criminality, An Assault on the American<br />
Brain. “The Medical Hubris, its collateral<br />
damage and unintended consequences …<br />
we will look back at this process of vaccine<br />
administration both in shame and in horror”<br />
and the link to the extent of this horror, you<br />
can not imagine. I have seen it, I can show<br />
