Här följer min CV på engelska för domarpresentationen.

BLOODHOUNDS AND OTTERHOUNDS
In the mid 1980s I had bloodhound and my dog became tracker of the year 1987. I Have also owned otterhounds and been very successful tracking with them as well and made up one of my lads to Champion.

DOGUE DE BORDEAUX
In mid 1980s I began to visit France and by the end of 1980s I introduced the Dogue de Bordeaux to Sweden.From 1980s to early 1990s I can surely say I saw most of the Dogues de Bordeaux alive at the time as I travelled throughout France visiting kennels and also many visits to private persons who i had been told owned the breed.

I visited breeders in other European countries and built up an archive of the breed. I have a record of all of the dogs in the lines seen in the breed today and breeders consult me about the lines in their dogs. I became a student judge for Professor Triquet back in 1991 and this was to be the beginning of a very long friendship.In 1991 we travelled to speciality shows around the world for the Dogue de Bordeaux in Germany for the Molosser Speciality and the day after the World show with a US bred bitch as world winner.

We then continued together in the ring at other Specialities in Germany, France, Spain. In France in early 1990s in Metz we had 106 Dogue de Bordeaux and I was in in the ring with Raymond and Philippe Serouil.

We were in the ring together in USA at their breed speciality.And then when in USA Professor Triquet told me that I didn’t have to go over the dogues in the ring as he told me – Tim you know the breed so well you do not gave to go over them any more.

Throughout these years as you can well imagine we spent so much time discussing the breed past and present and breed standard and then in USA Professor Triquet asked me if I would help him translate the breed standard from French to English and thus started a very intensive period where we must have spent hundreds of hours discussing every single detail of the breed standard turning every detail inside out and in the end produced the breed standard in English, and we felt we had done a really good job.

I held my first judge’s conference on the Dogue De Bordeaux back in early 1990s. I have also continued to be called on for assistance with translation and proof reading of breed standards.

I am often called on as Dogue de Bordeaux specialist for advice on various kennel club matters, which I love to help out with.9 years ago I was invited to judge the Swedish Dogue de Bordeaux and had an entry of over 50 which was unheard of then.

I am working with a national breed club on producing breed specific breeding strategies. I am creating a unique Photo book of the Dogue de Bordeaux going back 25 years and I am writing a book called the ”Complete Handbook for the Dogue de Bordeaux Breed Standard.

I am being called on more and more to escort especially Bulldogs, another of my favourite breeds and Dogue de Bordeaux around the world.

OTHER BREEDS
I imported the first Ca de Bou to Sweden in middle of 1990s and bred the first ever litter with my own bred male becoming the third direct generation of Champion. His Grandmother became Spanish Champion under Rafael Malo Alcrudo, His mother became Swedish Champion under Rafael Malo Alcrudo and he was awarded his Swedish Champion title by Rafael Malo Alcrudo. This is completely unique in the breed. Rafael has also recommended me as a judge as you can read in the enclosed letter.

SHOWS
Back in the 1980s I was invited to assist at Speciality shows for English Mastiff and Lancashire Heeler and learned so much from the English judges who judged.

I have judged up to open show level for over 25 years and that includes judging abroad.

I judge Livestock guardian breeds in Group 1, all group 2 and often hounds in Group 6

I was invited to judge molosser breeds at a show in Ukraine back in late 1990s and had over 100 dogs in the ring and I put up a Dogue de Bordeaux as BIS. Since then I have judged in Russia as well. I am also a Russian interpreter.

I was invited to judge the Swedish Dogue de Bordeaux Club’s first Specialty show in 2006 and had an entry of over 50 which is an entry which has never been beaten in Scandinavia except for World or European dog shows.

I feel very, very strongly for the breeds I have owned and also all livestock guardian breeds and of course the molosser breeds.

RING ASSISTANT AND INTERPRETER
I have interpreted for Russian and other foreign judges in the ring over the years. Latest was at ATIBOX 2018. Also for Sergei Vanzha, a dear friend at the Swedish Boxer Club Championship show several years ago.

I was invited to interpret at ATIBOX in Malmo in Sweden.

SEMINARS
In 2008 I was invited to hold seminar on ”The Tendencies Towards Changes in the Central Asian Shepherd Dog” in Siberia for many of Russia’s leading breeders, judges and breed experts. A real honour.

I also hold seminars about the Dogue.
