Northern Counties Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club

I would like to thank the Committee of the Nothern Counties Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club for the invatation to judge the Open Show 2024.

It was a great honour to be invited to judge the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. A big thank you to my 2 ring stewards who made my judging go smooth and helped me during the day.. I also offer my hubge thanks to all exhibitors.

In my final line up I was happy with the quality of dogs in front of me.

I really enjoyed the younger classes with really good quality dogs.

Ultimately I could choose only one. I send a sincere heartfelt Thank You to you all.
