In line with the objectives of the Great Game Fairs of Ireland team and the Mid Antrim Working Terrier & Lurcher Club to organise not only the best terrier and lurcher events in Ireland in terms of prize funds and facilities but also the most reputable events we are delighted to announce that at each of our two major events the 22nd All Ireland Terrier and Lurcher Championships at Shanes Castle on the 27th June and the ROI Terrier & Lurcher Championships at Birr Castle on the 29th August we have put in place judges whose integrity is beyond reproach. And for both events we will be using a top Irish judge and a top UK specialist judge.
For Shanes Castle the Terrier judge is John Kyrollos from Scotland, a well known judge of working terriers of all breeds, and the lurcher judge is our own John Humphreys who has carried the Irish flag successfully to shows all over the UK and Ireland.
The two judges will jointly judge the overall Champion (Best in Show) from the Champion Terrier, the Champion Whippet and the Champion Lurcher.
For our new Champion Puppy Overall - Tom Chalmers aka Foxgun Tom will do the honours.
At Birr the roles are reversed with a top Irish Terrier Judge and a top UK Lurcher Judge
