I would like to thank the officers and committee of the East Midland Bulldog Club for inviting me to award my first set of CCs at their wonderful show and I was delighted with my  large entry of 135/139.  There was a friendly atmosphere at the show with many filled classes and a packed ringside, lets hope that these large entries continue as we must support our breed clubs.

Congratulations to Victoria Eaton as this was her first show as acting secretary and what a great job she done.  I would like to thank my Stewards for doing such a great job but my biggest thank you goes to every single exhibitor for giving me the opportunity of going over their beautiful dogs and being so sporting in my decisions.  I was very impressed with the amount of lovely loose tails, only finding a couple which were a tad tight.  Movement was my bugbear and there were several dogs that looked amazing stacked on the ramp but it all fell apart on the move.
