SUMMER OPEN SHOW - SUNDAY 11th JUNE 2023
ENTRIES OPEN HERE https://www.haveadogday.co.uk/Show.aspx?SID=40333

Venue: Benson Parish Hall, Sunnyside, Benson, Oxfordshire OX10 6LZ
MAIN CLASSES
Judge: Fiona King (Kingsline)
My love affair with French Bulldogs started as a teenager in the early 80’s when my mother brought home the first of what was to be two retired bitches from Vivienne Watkins of the Bomlitz Kennel. These set the standard of Frenchies for me, so later in 2008 when I had the opportunity to purchase a puppy bitch from this line, my husband and I jumped at the chance to own Abbeymill All that Jazz at Kingsline, who was very successful in the show ring, winning top honours at both Open and Club events, as a puppy she placed 2nd in the 2009 Crufts.
But our interest extended also to Bull Terriers and Boston Terriers, which is where we became involved in these Breed Clubs and it is with Bostons that we are most closely associated today, but my love of the Frenchie has never waned and I watched as the Breed transformed from being almost a rare and very select breed with a few hundred bred each quarter, to the popularity we witness today.
I am a senior judge of Bostons and Bull Terriers and have judged Frenchies since 2008, but this will be my first Club appointment. I am thrilled to be given this opportunity and am very much looking forward to being in the ring on this occasion rather than looking in from outside with envy!

BOMLITZ SPECIAL CLASSES
My interest in French Bulldogs goes back for as long as I can remember but I wasn’t able to have one until I moved out from home. As soon as I saw my first it was love at first sight. I didn’t start showing with her until she was a year old, and I loved showing all my frenchies over the years. The show scene is a really big passion of mine now whether it’s in the ring judging or helping out with stewarding. I really appreciate this opportunity to be judging the Bomlitz Special classes here at the French Bulldog Club of England’s Summer 2023 show, and look forward to going over the wonderful dogs that you have been kind enough to enter today
