Crufts 2007 - Judge David McHale - Critique - Dog World & Our Dogs

Firstly, can I thank all bulldoggers for the wonderful entry, the largest ever for our breed at Crufts, and for the first time - the biggest entry of dogs in the Utility Group. With such a mammoth entry I was pleasantly surprised at how very few absentees there were on the day. Out of my largest class of 30 - there was only one!
Finally, yes and everything they say is true! - there is nothing like judging your own breed at Crufts!

Limit Dog - 1. Norris´s Jumano Johnny Be Good. Mature R/W. This is first and foremost a head breed and this is the classic head! Perfect from every angle and excelling in the main things missing these days. A tremendous breadth and corresponding width and depth of foreface combined with a beautiful brick shaped skull. Lovely dark well fitting eyes, with no hoare showing when viewed front on - his mouth with perfect dentition, good width between the canines, and a straight set of incisors. An underjaw that started far back with super width, turn and fit. Strong boned front with neat tight feet.Well tacked on shoulders with nice turn of forearm. Good brisket and depth of chest, all that set him apart from the rest. Delighted to find that today´s CC gave him his well deserved title! CC & BOB.
