Domarpresentationer:

Mrs. Brenda Phillips, kennel Exclyst

I bought my first Flatcoated Retriever in 1967, my line today is descended from "Wood Lass" who joined our family in 1970. I have had the pleasure of sharing my life with her descendants, breeding, showing with reasonable success, I made up my current 6th generation Champion in 2002. I have also imported the delightful young male Yatzy's from Norway. My Flatcoats and I have picked-up at West country shoots since. The early 1970's I found my interest widened in 1975 with the support of the late Mrs Kay Holmes to judging; my first show was Newton Abbot & South Devon Canine Soc. "gundogs". I give CC's in my own breed Flatcoated Retrievers, Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers, Curly Coated Retrievers and English Springer Spaniels plus the Gundog Group for the first time in 2005. I have through International judging being able to travel world wide. 2001 was very special, judging "BIS" at the United Retriever's Championship Show in August and the first UK judge to officiate at the United Retrievers Club Show in Sidney Australia in the October. I have International judged my CC breeds since 1982 frequently in All of Scandinavian & European countries plus America on many occasions, including judging the Flat-Coated Retriever Speciality USA for the second time in California in May 2004. I have been Associated with the Dog World outside of my breed , having founded Westward Gundog Club , being F/T Secretary during it's formative years up to the Club qualifying for the Retriever & Spaniel Championships. I was also a committee member of South Western Gundog plus Secretary for Several years. I have been on the General Committee of the Flatcoated Retriever Society, I am at this time Chairman of the Soc. Health Sub -committee. I have a great interest into the present & future use of DNA for canine health research.

I bought my first F/c in 1966 as a pet and look what it has lead to. That is one reason why I do not mind selling pups to people who appear to have no interest in show/working. You never know where their interests will lead them. I bred two litters, acquired the “Torwood” prefix and we worked and showed Torwood Trader to F.T. awards and CC’s. He was by Joan Mason’s Heronsflight Tercel and I have been friendly with Joan ever since. I was on the FC Society committee from 1972 and dropped off in when family commitments became greater. I still retain a position on the Show Com. I became a founder member of the NEFRA com. And as the family has grown up and moved away I have added to my committees by joining the Judges, News letter and lastly became Hon Working Sec to NEFRA. The working position is only possible with the help of David Bellamy who supports me and the society by his great knowledge of shooting, training gundogs and availability of grounds for working. I have over the years  kept a variety of breeds including Minature Longhaired Dachshunds some of which I still own and love. Our house and kennel are looked after in our absence by my youngest daughter, who lives near by and without whose help I wouldn’t be able to have days away at doggy events. At the moment I am trying to cut down on the number of dogs in the kennel but this is very hard. I hope with my new found leisure to be able to travel and visit my friends in dogs all over the world, most of whom I have met when judging or competing with my Flatcoats.
