Photos & Pedigrees

  • Has your Bullmastiff won a Challenge Certificate at a UK Champ show during 2023?
  • If so you are invited to submit a 3 generation pedigree and a printable quality photo of the dog for inclusion in our CC show winners section of the next Year book (this is free of charge).
  • Please note to keep the subject more prominent on the page the photo should ideally be mainly of just the dog in a standing position (head shots are accepted too). The image may be cropped (showing just the handlers legs standing with the dog) this is to fit the page dimensions. (You should also have full copyright permission from the photographer to use the photo in the book).
  • The club will attempt to contact all 2023 CC winners for inclusion in the book, if you have not been contacted by mid December after the last show of the year (LKA) please contact Year Book Editor Cath Lewis.
