Bulldog Of the Year  2009 ITALY

Alessio organised this very

prestigious event

Based on The Bulldog Of The Year in the UK , Alessio had a dream of holding a similar competition in Italy

with Three Uk Judges and the same scoring method as the Bulldog Incorporated ....

I was very proud to be invited  to do it  with Paul Harding [Pringhams] and Dawn Mantle

[Dawnstar] two Uk breeder judges whose dogs I really admire

27 Dogs and Bitches were invited to take part

Our First night Alessio and Valentina took us to view the sunset

After staying in a fabulous italian villa for B&B we headed to the camping ground where this event was held  calling on  Allesios friend and looking at his puppies

We all had our own little cabin  ,we were greeted by  lovely flowers in the room

The Judging of the Bulldog Of The Year took place at 6 pm in this lovely setting
