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 />

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 />

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 />

Head lacking in profile, ears on top giving a<br />

pleasing expression, correct mouth, in muscular<br />

condition. Probably a little underweight for his<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 />

Warburton Trophy<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 />

Coloured Bull Terrier Club<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 />

Judge: Malcolm J. Presland<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 />

Galetia.<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 />

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 />

Focus<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 />

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 />

Details of all relevant sites are as follows:<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 />

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 />
