Minis are notoriously difficult to judge because of the variations in type, size, quality and mouth faults currently and oft a bull terrier judge has shied away from the task. They are also described as the clowns of the dog world and there is no wonder some non-specialists struggle with their peculiar presence in the ring. Given that this is a breed characteristic we really shouldn’t be surprised when the play the fool, but this can and does make the life of handler and judge all the more difficult, and there were a few today who certainly broke my heart and made my job considerably harder! All that said, the quality in minis is certainly improving and I was very pleased with my principal winners. Many thanks to the Bull Terrier Club for the invitation, to the exhibitors who allowed me to go over their dogs and to my stewards, Naomi Ramshaw and Jason Sheehy for their help in the ring.

1st RISIBULLY ANARCHY IN THE UK (MRS K HULL)
7 months brindle and white dog. Very smart young man. Balanced. Super headpiece with good expression, neat ears, profile fill and finish. Mouth correct. Plenty of bone for size and shapely body lines with good length of neck and correct tail set. Tight feet. Moved OK. Should have a bright future when finished.
2nd HOWFENBULLS DARK KNIGHT (MR & MRS S & N BATTEL)
6 months solid black brindle dog. Another smart one. Nice long head with good ear set and correct mouth. Preferred the angulation and movement of 1. Should mature well.

1st OLYMPUSBULYS ATLAS (MRS & MR T & S DENT)
12 months solid black brindle. Substantial typey boy. Good long head with neat ears, piercing expression, fill and depth. Correct mouth. Shapely body lines scoring high for balance and super short back. Took a while to settle but moved true both ways with drive and power. Shouted literally “look at me” and I was pleased to award him RBD.
2nd LOOK AT ME MR FLASHY (MISS V HARTMANNOVA)
13 months white dog. Best of expressions with fill and good profile. Mouth fault. Preferred the angulation of 1 but nonetheless, full of type. A little dog who showed very well and indeed is “Mr Flashy”!

1st PHUNSIZE DIVO NOGGIN (MR & MRS C & V MCBAY)
3 years Brindle dog. Substantial, balanced dog who gave me my first challenge as he really did not make the most of himself today. However, I was able to see enough to ascertain his virtues. Good long head with lovely unbroken profile, plenty of fill and ears on top with tiny eye giving super expression. Correct mouth. Lovely body lines with depth, short back, very good front and rear angulation, including good length of upper arm. Managed to see enough straight movement both ways.
2nd BULLINVICTUS RAGTIME ATCAW02432POL (MRS & MR K & S STRYSZAK)
2 years black brindle dog. Very smart and caught my eye giving a quality outline on the stand. Good length of head with clean profile and neat ears. Would prefer keener expression. Mouth fault. Moved a little short coming and going, but a quality dog with plenty to like. At one with his handler and put down in excellent condition.

1st CHATTANOOBA CHOO CHOO AEDESTAURUM (MR J HARPER)
4 years solid red smut dog. Proper little stallion who demanded my attention. The best of expressions with tiny little ears, unbroken profile, depth and fill. Mouth just off but correct canines. Excelled in short back, good tail set and balanced body lines, standing foursquare on neat feet. Completely at one with his handler. I couldn’t deny him top honours today and was delighted to award him BD BOB
2nd RISIBULLY WOULDN'T IT BE NICE AT FERGUSTAFF (MR S J MARSHALLSAY)
3 years White with black ear and eye. Different type to one but still showing his virtues. Quality boy with good substance and bone. Good depth of head, not the clean profile or expression of one. Shapely body lines. Moved a little wide coming but with drive. Showed and handled well.

1st TOPASBULLY ROSTISLAVA (MR & MISS P & A VYSOTSKI & MALCHANAVA)
7 months brindle and white bitch. Really took my eye as soon as she entered the ring. Feminine balanced girl with gorgeous head piece. Super profile with fill and finish, neat ears. Correct mouth. Compact body lines with depth of brisket and short back. Good length of neck and good lay of shoulder with correct upper arm. Neat feet. Enough bone for size. Moved very well both ways. Tail carried a little high. One to watch and was pleased to reward her virtues today. BB RBOB BOS BPIB
2nd RISIBULLY GIRLS ON FILM WITH FERGUSTAFF (MRS L MARSHALLSAY)
6 months tricolour girl. Another very strong one for type. Very pretty with stunning profile, good fill and neat ears. Mouth fault. Good length of neck. A little longer cast than 1 and preferred the better shoulder and neater package of 1 but a close decision today and no doubt has a promising future.

1st EXTRAVERT NORA (MRS & MR T & R FLETCHER & NICOLAS)
17months black brindle bitch. Super typey, quality little mini package that I loved as soon as she strutted in. Super headpiece with unbroken profile, fill and keen expression. Would prefer a little more muzzle width. Shapely body lines with depth and the shortest of backs. Would prefer a better lay of shoulder. Moved straight and showed like a little rocket. As much as I loved her, her mouth fault didn’t allow me personally to take her further today. RBB
2nd RASELS BULL TUNDRA (ATCAY15223SVK) (MR & MRS J & I SLESAROVCI)
15 months White bitch with black eye. Super feminine girl. Scored for balance, quality and angulation. Feminine long head with good profile but not quite the head of 1. Mouth fault. Moved OK both ways.

1st JENKIR HERA (MRS J HARRISON)
2 years tricolour bitch. The one that got away.. Gorgeous, typey, substantial mini bitch who gave me the biggest challenge of the day. Absolutely refused to show and would have certainly gone further if she had. Presented an absolutely lovely picture on the stand with a fabulous head, fully packed and turned with tiny ears. Mouth OK. Super short back, good depth of brisket, good angulation with the added bonus of correct length of upper arm. Super bone and neat feet. Managed to catch a few steps of good movement when she wasn’t concentrating and saw enough to give her the class.
2nd BULLINVICTUS CALANTHE (ATCAY37783POL) (MRS & MR K & S STRYSZAK)
2 years black brindle bitch. Quality, feminine girl with plenty to like. Clean profile with good finish and enough fill. Neat ears. Mouth fault. Shapely body lines, slightly longer than 1. Moved OK both ways. Beautifully presented and handled and unlucky to come up against 1 today.

3 years Tricolour bitch. Very smart girl completely at one with her handler. Lovely headpiece with good profile, ears bang on top and piercing expression. Minor mouth fault. Good length of neck. Would prefer better lay of shoulder and rear angulation. Moved accordingly but with typical jaunty air. Happy showgirl.
