Ph: (562) 923-4264   Email: Click here

A Southern California native having been born, and for the most part, raised and educated there. John's parents were of the thought that travel was the best education, so based on this premise his traveling days started very early. He was indeed fortunate enough to have the opportunity to live in several countries and was always interested in different cultures, especially Spanish and Latin American culture which led him to pursue his interest in medieval and Renaissance Literature.
As far back as he can remember there has always been a dog in his life. Being somewhat sickly as a child and unable to do much running and playing with other children, his parents bought him a dog as companion. It was at this point in his life that he think he  became imprinted with dogs in general and his interest in dogs eventually grew to showing and breeding Saint Bernard's.  John had the privilege of co-owning and backing Am. Ch. Figaro von Haus Steinbach a German Import, group contender and BISS winner. Eventually they added the Skye Terriers, producing several homebred champions over the years, Persian Cats and had a growing passion for the Newfoundland. Over the years John has owned, shown and backed several breeds, currently owning two Skye Terriers, a Japanese Chin, a King Charles Spaniel, and a Pug. Currently they are exhibiting a top ranking Chihuahua in the United States.
In the early 70’s John was granted provisional status for his first three breeds spread out over those early years. Somewhat curtailing his showing and judging interests he  pursued his  educational and travel interests. John had the opportunity to judge in Wales with the honor of awarding CC Certificates in Skye Terriers on that occasion and the opportunity to officiate in Ireland. Judging has become a passion, a privilege and a very rewarding experience.

REWSTON, Mr. Tony

Great Dane Breed Specialist Judge

Ph: 0044 1934 712 477    Email: Click here

Tony first judged Great Danes at an All Breeds Open Show in 1974. Unlike some people who have taken that step, he thoroughly enjoyed the experience. As there is no self-progressive system in place in the UK that enables one to graduate to judging at Championship Show level, you have to wait a long time to take the next step. For him that came in 1988 when he judged at the Scottish Kennel Club show.
Since that first step back in 1974 he has judged in some capacity for all but two of the nine UK Breed Clubs, and for some more than once. He has also judged the breed in Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. In addition he judged Danes in the USA for the first time in 1999. His last appointment in the USA was at the Lake Mathews All Breeds Show in April, 2003. Most recently in August 2005 he judged the Annual Specialty for the Western Great Dane Club of British Columbia, Canada. Judged in Sydney, Australia in 2005.

RYAN, Mrs. Leah 

Kennel Name: Vedamea

Ph: +61-2-4578-2267  Email: Click here

Leah's interest in breeding and the exhibition of pure-bred dogs is undoubtedly linked to her strong rural roots and spans over three decades, beginning in New Zealand with Shetland Sheepdogs - a breed that most suited her facilities at that time. Her foundation stock came from the famous Twoseas Kennels and she continued with those bloodlines until she left New Zealand to travel the world. On her return she  married & settled here in Sydney, Australia, where they began to breed Collie Roughs. For the past twenty years she and husband Barry, have travelled the world extensively, viewing Specialty and All Breed shows, & participating in various aspects of the canine fraternity. 
In 1987 they imported the first Rough Collies into Australia from the United States of America for the purpose of breeding and exhibition, and they were also the first to produce Rough Collies from frozen semen in Australia. These investments proved to be extremely successful in establishing their renowned bloodline; namely "Vedamea" Rough Collies.
Leah has bred and sold numerous champions in both Conformation and Obedience: many who excel at both Specialty and All Breed shows, including prestigious awards such as Best Exhibit in Show, and Group and Royal Challenge Winners. She has written and published a thesis on Coat Colour Inheritance for the Collie Breed: served on numerous Committees for the Collie Club of New South Wales including the position as Honorary Club Secretary for a number of years, served as Secretary of the sub-committee set up to devise the Illustrated Collie Breed Standard, and she is currently Show Secretary for the Illawarra Collie & Shetland Sheepdog Club. 
She wrote the history for the Illustrated Breed Standard publication; and also wrote, prepared and presented the lecture for Rough Collies at the Judges Training Scheme in 2002. Leah obtained her first judge's license in 1992, and currently is licensed to judge the Working (Herding), Gundog (Sporting), Utility (Working), and most recently the Hound Group. She has judged in most all states of Australia, and many times in both New Zealand, and the United States of America.
