STAFFORDSHIRE BULL JUDGE DRIFFIELD 22

A day spent with the Staffords and their wonderful owners is always a day well spent and I would like to congratulate them all on the wonderful type and quality of the breed right now. I had no difficulty at all in finding top class, even line-ups of sound Staffords. I did not find a single bad mouth and tails are much improved. All in all the breed made my last judging engagement a most memorable one, and my thanks go to you all, an example to many other breeds.

VD (2)

1 Rowe & South’s Illori Akinlana JW ShCM VW. Two very different types. This boy was quality with a balanced head and body proportions, and he was sound. It was his middle of the road type and soundness that won him the class.

2 Mayren’s Ch Bellarouge Adonis At Fergiestaffs JW. In top condition, a bit much for me and I did not like his tail. He was quite sound.

PD (8,1)

1 Wilson’s Northstaff Nightmare. I loved him from the tip of his well balanced, correct strong head, perfect eyes and expression, good ears, perfect front and bone, well ribbed, short loin to his correct tail. In top condition. BPIB & PG1, well done!

2 Marshallsay’s Fergustaff Tudor Legacy. Red and white. A real baby but of lovely type. Well balanced head, strong underjaw, well balanced body. Very sound, he just needs time to mature.
