Bournemouth Canine Association

Breed: Bull Terrier

Bournemouth. Bull Terrier

The dogs are such great characters. A few mouth issues which affected placings, very frustrating as a judge. At the end of judging my hands were rather white, clouds of white dust coming off a dog whilst you go over it doesn’t actually improve its chances of a win.
