2017 Westminster Dog Show Judging Panel

5/24/2016

0 Comments

 
The Westminster Kennel Club Announces Mr. Thomas H. Bradley, 3d., to Top the 2017 Judging Panel
Judges for Westminster Week’s Four Competitions Hail From Across the US and Abroad.

New York – Mr. Thomas H. Bradley, 3d., of Watertown, NY will be awarding the 141st Westminster Kennel Club’s Best in Show winner. After a lifetime in the sport, this breeder, owner and former Westminster Kennel Club Show Chairman will join an elite list of people to preside over “The World’s Greatest Dog Show.”
Bradley began his involvement in the sport as a teenager exhibiting and later breeding German Shorthaired Pointers, Pointers and Labrador Retrievers under the Luftnase kennel name. He owned and handled other breeds over the years including Cairn Terriers, Whippets, Cocker Spaniels and more recently Border Terriers experiencing many wins in the ring. In 1989, he was the co-breeder of the top winning dog in the U.S., a Pointer, Ch. Luftnase Albelarm’s Bee’s Knees, whose record included capturing the Sporting group at the Westminster show.
After 20 years as an exhibitor Bradley received his American Kennel Club license to judge all of the breeds in the Sporting group, Best in Show and Junior Showmanship competitions. His dog sport role changed in 1975 when he joined the Westminster Kennel Club. He held many positions within the club including communications director but is best known for his 15-year tenure as Show Chairman for the iconic dog show in New York City.
In addition to his position managing the main event during Westminster Week, Bradley is also a founding member and Executive Director of Take the Lead a charitable organization established in 1993 to support people in the sport with terminal or life-threatening illnesses.
This long-standing dog breeder, owner, handler and judge is also the former president of Thomas H. Bradley, Inc., a wholesale hardware company in Watertown, NY established in 1897 by his grandfather.

“On behalf of the Westminster Kennel Club, I would like to thank Mr. Thomas H. Bradley, 3d., for taking on the challenging role as our Show Chairman for the past 15 years. Anyone who has met or worked with Tom knows him as a consummate gentleman and a fair-minded person with great compassion for all involved in the sport. Tom has effortlessly steered our event through many transitions and contributed in innumerable ways. Thank you Tom for contributing to the legacy that is the Westminster experience and thank you for your significant contributions through the many changes we’ve made in the past five years. In 2017 Mr. David A. Helming will be taking over the position of Show Chairman for the 141st Westminster Kennel Club show.
