Biography
David is a Life Member of the Canadian Kennel Club and the Newfoundland (All-Breed) Kennel Club and is an All-Breed Conformation judge with more than forty years of involvement in purebred dogs. His introduction to the sport began in the early 1980s with Labrador Retrievers, soon expanding to include Pekingese through a long and successful partnership with Gary Tucker. Working with two breeds so different in form and function gave David a deep appreciation for breed purpose, structure, and the nuances that define correct type across all breeds. Over the decades, David and Gary have bred and owned many notable dogs, including American Breed Specialty winners and influential producers who improved upon themselves. Every dog in their home was raised with care, intention, and affection - a philosophy that continues to guide David's approach to the sport.

As a judge, David is known for his calm ring presence, breeder's eye, and genuine respect for exhibitors. He considers it a privilege to evaluate dogs and encourages newcomers and observers to explore the breeds that inspire them and to learn from the dedicated breeders who preserve them.
