International ALL BREEDS Dog Show Judge
 

 

Résumé of Mrs. Stephanie Rickard (Australia) - Licensed ALL BREEDS Judge

 

Stephanie G Rickard - All Breeds Judge - Victoria, AustraliaI entered the world of pure bred dogs in 1969 when, on the death of my father, I purchased an English Springer Spaniel for my mother. I took up showing, then, in 1973, the first "Wongan" litter of Springers was born. Miniature Poodles and American Cockers later followed this breed. These breeds were shown to considerable success and, together with my husband David, I have bred 104 champions to date, several of them 'Best in Show' winners including a number of Specialties and Melbourne Royal Show. In the last three years, we have added a Cavalier to our family.

I have held executive positions on Specialty and All Breeds Clubs, am immediate Past President of the Victorian Springer Club and since 1993, have held an All Breeds judging license. I have judged in Finland , The Philippines, U.S.A. , Canada , India , Singapore , Sweden , Thailand and Japan as well as extensively throughout Australia and New Zealand .

As a teacher, I am passionate about education and have been involved in Judges' Training for a number of years. I am a member of the Australian Judges' Testing Panel.
