I have owned, showed and bred Border Collies for over 40 years. Initially worked obedience, some agility and did some sheep dog training. In later years I have concentrated on breed showing having qualified a Border Collie for Crufts in 1978 and every subsequent year.

I have been judging Border Collies since 1978. I have been awarding CC's since 1990. I have judged abroad & now judge all the breeds in the pastoral & working groups, the groups & best in show at open level.

I am president and founder member of the West Of England BCC. Chair of the CEA/DNA working party, treasurer & Kennel Club representative of the Border Collie Breed Council.
