DODGECITY FORGED IN GOLD
Bull Terrier: Judge Adele Walker (Astasia)
I’d like to thank the committee of NPBTC for the opportunity to judge their open show, and to the exhibitors who gave me a fabulous entry and the chance to go over their dogs. I am always grateful for the support I receive. Exhibits on the day were well presented and a credit to their handlers/ owners. I think it’s safe to say my Co judge Carol Stephen’s and myself had a lovely day. Big thanks also to my stewards Sean Morris and Joanna Szewclyk.

11 month old white bitch. Good size, lovely head with good profile, nice ear set, correct mouth, eye on the kind side, lovely neck leading to well balanced body.
