I was born in the U.S.A. but I have
lived in Malta since I was 4 years old.
|
I always remember having dogs in the
house and used to attend shows but I can say that |
I started to show seriously in the
early eighties when I had a Cocker Spaniel. |
|
In 1986 i imported my a Cavalier King
Charles Spaniel from Dianne Fry from the U.K. He was |
|
Malta Champion Amantra Sea Guard or
Sonny as we called him. He was a very nice |
blenheim boy and still holds the record
of the only Cavalier to win Best in Show at an all |
breeds show in Malta. Two years after
my first Cavalier, I was in England watching Crufts a |
and this is where I saw my beloved
French Bulldogs......a few weeks later I bought my first
|
puppy from Dianne Searle.... Malta
Champion Sanshay Iceberg.....he was the winner of |
various awards in Malta including 3
Best in Shows. |
Our latest adventure when it comes to
breeding is with Whippets. Although they belong to |
my daughter Stacey, I am also very fond
of this magnificent breed and we had our first |
litter in April....both parents were
imported form one of the top kennels in the world which
|
is Nvedith woned by Nev and Editha
Newton. |
During my time in dogs I also had Welsh
Terriers, German Spitz and Cocker Spaniels and |
were all shown with sucess. |
My first judging appointment was in
England and it was a club match. Although i was very |
nervous at first, I remember i really
enjoyed it and my winner was a Miniture Schnauzer. |
After that I judged several shows in
the U.K. and in 1999 when Malta joined the F.C.I. as |
an ssociate member, our kennel club
recommended me as an International Judge. |
I have judged in several countries
which include the U.K, Holland, Sweden, Norway, |
Iceland, Finland,Czech Republic,
Bulgaria and Macedonia and Latvia and have forthcoming |
appointments in Germany, Russia, Italy,
Estonia, Finland, Holland, Czech Republic, Slovakia |
and Sweden. |
