My interest in dogs grew as the years went on, and by 1960 I handled my first dog Travella Seehim. A year later I won my first CC and three years on had my first Champion, Ch. Travella Superstar. Ever since I could remember I have always been interested in dogs. In the early 50’s at a very young age I would always go to dog shows with my Father.
In 1968 I started judging my first open shows, but had previously been judging sanction and limit shows. In 1971 I was passed by the Kennel Club to judge Wire Fox Terrier's at Leicester Championship Show, to award Challenge Certificates. |
