Phil Lloyd 10,738 Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) Brilliant day out,...LOADS of top quality 'working dogs'..... Last time I visited this friendly show was back in the 90's,...when I was privileged to judge the lurchers,...and the class and amount of workman-like jukels hasn't changed one iota.... Fecking loved it.... Cheers,.CHALKWARREN.... Edited June 19, 2007 by CHALKWARREN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun11 537 Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 I was in that class with mine (was the one that ran in late with the black bullX....!). The judge, John Bromley didn't do much handling of any bullx's, said he'd bin bit the other week by a pure bred in his kennels an that had put him off a bit!!....... Met John a few times over the past 20 years, really nice fella, knows his dogs (he should, he's a top breeder 'n trainer) but judging at an event such as the Welsh what was he expecting?....In recent years there has been a big influx of Bullx's at most shows.

welshphil 169 Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 Being a bit of a tw*t I forgot my camera so wasn't able to record my "moment of glory" However I do have a pic of 'jake' who was the champion lurcher.......... Many thanks for all the people who were good enough to offer me their congratulations and nice comments Quote Link to post Share on other sites
skycat 6,173 Posted June 19, 2007 Report Share Posted June 19, 2007 I've seen that pic before I think: stunning dog: a 'proper' lurcher. It doesn't surprise me that he won, especially with Bromily judging: he used to keep lurchers of a similiar ilk if I remember rightly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
