Eng/Am Ch Ormandy's Burson's Bounty ex ?? of Hylo
Thanks to Douglas Rose for providing me with this photo from 1970 which shows
Laura with my first and only Jr. Showmanship Trophy.
Laura was one of the world's sweetest Bull Terriers and a great introduction to the breed.
I was fortunate to have purchased her from Douglas, who encouraged my interest in the
breed and BTCA events.

By Ch. Westbrook Wild One, ROM ex Kearby's Roberta
This photo was taken when Rachel was 12.
Rachel was my second Bull Terrier and my first "real" show dog. She was honored by the Bull Terrier Club of America as the first dog to win its Versatility Award and also as a Brood Bitch Emeritus. To date, she is the only Bull Terrier to receive both these awards
She was the Queen of the Bull Terriers in her mind, and in mine.
She is sadly missed.

Am Ch. Westbrook Walking Song, C.D., ROM, TT
Mitch was a Silverwood finalist at the 1989 Detroit Silverwood.
He was a sweet boy, a keen stud dog who was still flirting through the week he died.
He was a bit shy, totally ball obsessed, and the most beautiful dog I've owned.
This photo was taken when Mitch was about 2 years old. A great loss.
"Toby" Ch. Nuance Night Life, ROM 1987-2002
Am/Can Ch Jocko's Caesar of Magor, ROM ex Ch Westbrook Walking Song, C.D., ROM, TT
"Toby" was a Silverwood finalist in both 1998 and 1999. A lively personality,
he lived with Tony and Karen (Andrews) Micallef. Karen is a vet tech and I'm sure her
professional care contributed to Toby's longevity.
