It's always a privilege to Judge and I was delighted to be ask to judge the ICC2019 in Spain.

I am a UK A panel and Irish A panel judge. Judging experience, I have judged Irish/ Belgium/Danish/French/Swedish Championship's as well as judging so many open and novice field trials.

I been competing and training labradors for 45 years. I have made up several Ftchs plus numerous Ftws. Winning of the Irish championship with Ftch Glenbriar Skippy was the cream on the cake. Apart from running labradors I have been successful in breeding many Ftchs.

Best wishes for a successful ICC for organisers and competitors.

I have always been very interested in gundogs and when I went to England as a young boy and saw retrievers at work I fell in love with this breed. My first trial dog was a Labrador retriever called Ft. Ch. Black Bullock (Bullet) and I started trialing him in 1989 and he became a FT Champion. Since then I have never turned back. I started my own line of working Labradors called Waterfriend Labradors and I have been breeding Labradors out of English working bloodlines in Italy for a long time. I have also been a professional gundog trainer for many years, I am a passionate gunman and I enjoy shooting and picking up with my dogs.

I have competed 8 times in the Coupe d' Europe Field Trial for the Italian team with different dogs, and won once in Team and once the Individual Challenge. I have made up many Field Trial Champions over the years and I have run my Labradors in Open Field Trials successfully in Europe as well as in the UK where I qualified 2 dogs to run in Open Field Trials.

I have been judging Field Trials, Dummy Trials and Working Tests for many years and I am very happy to judge for you!
