MINIATURE BULL BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL 25 Judge: Mr Jeff Horswell MINIATURE BULL JUDGE BIRMINGHAM NATIONAL25 Was very much looking forward to judging this great little breed. Sadly in males there was a real issue with dentition. Inverted canines are a breed watch issue, as it is a health concern, and I am always very aware of the need to penalize. I very sadly felt I could not sign a Challenge Certificate for any of the males on the day. Im not too bothered about the off tooth out of place but would urge breeders to consider mouths, I am aware its not just a UK issue, but of ignored it will never improve.
