Ladies Kennel Association

Many thanks to the Ladies Kennel Association for their invite to judge the Bulldogs, their welcoming hospitality was second to none and to all the exhibitors for their entries. My thanks also go to my stewards Jeana and Donald who excelled in the smooth running of the ring with no holdups an excellent job, well done. I found the overall health has improved but width of a true jaw is disappearing with so many narrow jaws to be seen.
