ENGLISH BULL JUDGE DARLINGTON 12

Bull Terriers

VD & MPD (0).

JD (3)

1 Lamonby’s Emred Devils Spy, white of super construction just maturing into an excellent quality dog, correct head shape with fill & deep muzzle well set eyes, neat ears carried bang on top, well developed neck & shoulders & stands square on a ramrod straight front, short backed making him overall exceptionally well balanced, good bend of stifle & second thigh & correct tail carriage, moved with good drive when settled down;

2 McDermid’s Padhen Hitman, b/br/w substantial male who has much to offer, nice broad head with plenty of fill & depth of muzzle, correct ear & eye placement, strong neck, good lay of shoulders, deep brisket & spring of ribs, good rear angulation, moved well both fore & aft, just the right weight which needs to be watched as he finishes maturity;

3 Tinkler’s Danbull Desperado.

PGD (1)

1 Carrick’s Bullbrand Solonius, nice typy white who has pleasing head with good eyes but needs to use his ears to complete the picture. Straight front with well tucked elbows, nice well developed forechest, short backed. Needs a stronger backend to complement his front. Moved well in front but close behind.

LD (5)

1 Pullen’s Louka Gone Racin, upstanding b/br/w, long head with enough fill, deep muzzle, good eye placement. Ears bit heavy. Straight strong front, good depth of chest, just enough bone & substance for size with well tucked in elbows, good well sprung ribs & nice tuck-up, good make behind, moved jauntily with drive, well presented;

2 Gardner & Patterson’s Javarke Sharp Shooter at Angliphorde, b/br/w similar in type to 1, well made with adequate bone & substance for size, nice head shape with keen expression, good neck & shoulders, level topline. Lost out on movement which needs more drive;

3 Sewards’ Padhen The Puzzler. OD (0).

VB (1)

1 Addison’s Fortifer The Dark Side at Taureau, b/br/w 7½ years, pretty bitch who does not have the greatest of profiles. Well made & balanced behind the collar, good shoulders & front, short back with good bend of stifle, moved well both ways.

MPB (1)

1 Grieve’s Teirwgwyn Miss Independant of Meilow, immature tri with lots of promise, nice feminine head with long profile, well set eyes & ears, square body shape with bone structure which with maturity could be quite a stunner. Loose on the move which again can only improve with age & exercise.

JB (3)

1 Ley & Broomfield’s Fortifer’s Flametta, excellent red who teems with quality, deep strong head, well filled with good ear & eye placement, mouth just off. Strong neck & shoulders leading into nice short back, straight front in excellent hard condition, was impressed with her movement which was with drive covering the ground effortlessly;

2 Galla’s Vetsbullies Happiness, r/w with feminine head, nice fill & expression, correct eye & earset, well laid shoulders & straight front, enough bone for substance, angulated rear with good bend of stifle. Moved when settled but not the drive of 1;

3 Dynes & McGeown’s Debully Devine Visions at Barbbulls.

PGB (4)

1 Brown’s Tulsadoom Terrys All Gold, white with brindle head markings, very well made, feminine head with correct fill & finish, strong elegant neck leading into good lay of shoulders, straight front & deep chest with enough spring of rib, well constructed backend, moved well;

2 Leggatt’s Dikrams Black Magic at Rabram, b/br with pleasing head, good eye, depth of muzzle, well sprung ribs, elbows tucked in. Shade long in back. Moved OK with drive but has tendency to lose topline;

3 Nisbet & Kelly’s Nosremme Panda One Star at Serenbull.

LB (2)

1 O’Connell’s Elvroc Who Dares Wins, very feminine white who has some excellent qualities, feminine head with just enough length & fill, nice finish, piercing eye, straight front, good lay shoulders flow into level topline, well angulated rearend, moved well both ways. When standing can tuck herself up, handler needs to watch this;

2 Richardson’s Dajan Gold Medal for Quayardson, white with brindle eye patch, nice head with excellent expression, well filled with just enough turn, deep broad chest, good lay of shoulder & spring of rib, level topline unfortunately lost on the move. Well constructed rear with nice bend of stifle. Loose underline which detracts from a very well made bitch.

OB (3)

1 Fletcher’s Napier Mary Jane, super white with brindle ears, ticks all the boxes, strong, long well filled deep head & broad muzzle with correct eye & ear placement, straight front with well tucked in elbows, containing a deep powerful chest, well sprung ribs, good bend of stifle & well muscled second thigh, moved with drive & purpose, well handled as looks to have a will of her own. CC, her third;

2 Tinkler’s Danbull Devoted, white typy bitch, lovely correct shaped head, well filled, good ear & eye placement, head, neck & shoulders flow as they should into one straight front although did stand a bit loose in front, needs to be on her toes more. Nice tuck-up behind. Moved OK in front, choppy behind;

3 Williams & Hawksford’s Bobuddy Evanesence.
