Experience:

Having shown and bred dogs over a number of years for myself and helping others, I graduated to judging at a couple of fun dog shows.

​

This in turn led to me being engaged to judge for the NEBBR in 2015 and becoming their circuit judge from then to present usually covering 4 shows a year. 

​

I have also judged for the IABBR on 2 occasions.  UK oeb club on one occasion as well. 

​

I also am a member of a number of groups involved in the development of breeds, standards   and the development of apprentices and judging eticate. 

​

About Philip:

I have a life long interest in dogs both show and working dogs.

​

At 7 years old I started with fun shows, being thrust into line ups with the family Chihuahuas. My Aunt had and bred labradors for working. Through my teens I started to work spaniels and was drawn into field sports Terriers, lurcher and long dogs. 

​

At 19 I bought my first APBT

​

Which led to a return to showing on a more regular basis and an ongoing interest in Bull Breeds. 

​

Having had a long Agricultural career as a stockman, I also owned and worked border collies. As well as a show career in cattle.

​

On leaving Agriculture I trained Greyhounds for a few years with some success. 

​

As a Judge I feel communication and general feed back at ring side is important. 

​

For the general good of the show and overall encouragement of all concerned.
