Biography |
||
I have bred, owned, and shown pointers since 1980. When I was a boy, I first came to know the Pointer as my father owned a Pointer as a hunting dog. We would frequently spend a day out shooting together. I acquired my first show Pointer in 1980 and since that time have had a close association with the Breed. I have bred and owned many wonderful Pointers and have bred or owned fifteen different All Breeds Best in Show winning Pointers (79 BIS wins) including the BIS at the only Pointer National to be held in Australia which occurred in 1988. I co-bred the BIS winner of the New Zealand National Dog Show in 2005 with this dog going on to win BOB and Group 3 at Cruft’s in the UK. He also won BIS at National Gundog in the UK in 2008. During his UK campaign he gained 20 CC’s. I bred both the father and mother of the #1 dog of All Breeds in NZ Dogzonline in 2010 and bred and handled the BOB winning Pointer at Crufts in 2012, with this dog going on to take Group 4. This Pointer is the only dog in the breed’s history to hold Grand Champion status in both NZ and Australia and Sh Ch status in the UK. In 2019 I campaigned Supreme Champion Kanix Mario at Robwyn (Imp-UK) to # 1 show dog of all breeds in New Zealand. I have spent many years as an active field trial enthusiast and was a regular competitor at field trail events when I lived in Queensland, Australia. I began my judging career in Queensland in 1987. Whilst living in Queensland, Australia, I sat and passed examinations to judge Gundogs, Toys, and Hounds. I returned to New Zealand from Australia in 1996 and sat and passed my New Zealand Gundog Championship license in 2006 after 19 years of judging experience. I am licensed to judge all Gundog Breeds and all Hound breeds. I have had the pleasure of judging the Gundogs and Hound Groups in New Zealand and Australia on numerous occasions and have judged in the Australian states of Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, Tasmania, and South Australia. I have also judged on both coasts of the United States having judged in the USA on ten occasions including the Pointer Club of Southern California specialty championship show and the Hudson River English Setter specialty shows. I have also completed judging assignments in Canada, Ireland, Israel, and Pakistan and have future appointments in the United Kingdom and Poland. I am excited to be returning to Canada again in 2023. I have had a highly active involvement with club administration and the management and running of dog events and shows. I am currently the President of Waitemata Gundog Club (27 years), a former President of the Irish Setter Club of New Zealand (16 years) and Vice President of the Pointer Club of New Zealand. I am a life member of Kumeu Kennel club all breeds club. I have previously served as an Executive councillor of the New Zealand Kennel club. |
