| Other Info | I am very passionate about learning as much as possible about the breeds I judge and also about Breed and Judges Education in general. I have developed and presented seminars for some of my own breeds including for the KC Judges Development Programme, the ANKC, the KUSA and UK Breed Clubs. I am a Judging Mentor for both the Spinone and the Jack Russell Terrier. I have written breed articles for several publications. I am keen to continue to develop my capability to judge breeds across all groups and to date have passed assessments for breeds across five of the groups (attended breed standard seminars across all groups). My spare time outside of showing and judging is spent attending seminars and stewarding. |
