| Biography |
||
| Sue is a fourth-generation dog shower whose passion began at age five with her family’s first
Beagle. She has handled a range of breeds and enjoyed significant success in both Junior
Handlers and main ring competitions. With over 60 years in the dog world, Sue is a dedicated
advocate for purebred dogs. Internationally, Sue has imported and exported dogs between the UK, New Zealand, USA, Asia, and Europe. Under the “Nangunyah” prefix, she and her family have produced many champion Beagles, winning multiple Best in Show and specialty awards. Since 1980, Sue has judged in over 20 countries and continues to receive prestigious appointments in Australia and overseas. She chaired the NSW Conformation Judges Training Committee in 2022 and 2023, furthering her commitment to education and the sport. Beagles are Sue’s main passion, though she has also shown other breeds. The Nangunyah Beagle line has produced over 100 champions worldwide. Highlights include judging at top shows in the UK, Europe, the US, and Asia, and being the only Australian to judge the Hound group at both the Sydney Royal and NZ National. She looks forward to judging for the Alberta Kennel Club in Canada this summer. Outside of dogs, Sue enjoys travel, gardening, and photography—earning her the affectionate nickname "mummarazzi." She cherishes adventures with her husband, children, and grandchildren. |
