The Committee of the Bulldog Club Inc. invite dogs to take part in Bulldog of the Year - there is no automatic or paid entry. Qualifiers are our guests and as such we want them to enjoy their day and the experience of taking part in one of the most important events of the year. To qualify they have to have won a CC (Challenge Certificate) from November of one year to November of the following.Bulldog of the Year is judged on a points scheme basis and are not published. The Judges are all Championship Show Judges and we do endeavour to pick experienced people, selection is left to the last possible moment to enable the best available to take part.
Each dog is awarded points - 100, 70, 60, 50, 40, 30, 20 and the remaining 10 apiece. All three sets of numbers are totalled for each dog and the winner obviously is the one with top score. This method as set up by Mr. Edmonds and Mr. Oppenheimer of the Kennel Club in 1975 and has worked well ever since. Neither judges nor exhibitors feel under any pressure and the sole aim is to provide a spectacle of the highest level of the best dogs in the country for the enjoyment of the audience which comes from all over the world and from all interested in dogs, not only Bulldogs. |
