March 20th, 2011, was the first All Breeds Championship Dog Show put on by The Barbados Kennel Club. Some dogs which were entered were scrapped the day of the show. We did have some afternoon rain, and as our shows are outside, there would have been some maybe slippery grass, but most of us, still […]

I noticed the article for dogs being critiqued and just had to mention somethings (at least mainly about gaiting). Well what was stated was in fact true, if a dog has been born and raised in a warm climate, they would have been use to it. However, one must realize though that the heat can […]

Firstly, the critique should be about the dogs in the ring on the day of the show. All dogs should be judged by their individual breed standards. Of course, how they are presented to the judge can make a difference. A dog given a Challenge Certificate signed by the judge means that on that day, […]

B’dos. Kennel Club’s final All Breeds Championship Show for the year, 2009, gave Jeff Luscott only 54 dogs to go over. This is the poorest entry I have ever seen in Barbados and it has nothing to do with Jeff Luscott, the judge. I don’t have pix. of all the group and reserve group winners. […]
