Snarfington Bull Terriers strut their stuff

At Snarfington Bull Terriers, we believe conformation dog shows play an essential role in preserving the health, temperament, and structure of the breed. The show ring is where breeding programs are evaluated against the official Canadian Kennel Club (CKC) standard, ensuring that future generations of Bull Terriers remain true to type—balanced, athletic, and full of character. Competing in shows allows our bitches to be assessed by experienced judges, while also giving us the opportunity to showcase their quality, celebrate their achievements, and connect with the wider community of responsible breeders. Below you’ll find photos and highlights from recent shows where Snarfington Bull Terriers have proudly represented our kennel.

The Heart of our Breed: Our 2026 UK Pilgrimage

We’ve just returned from an incredible trip to the UK, centered around the legendary Trophies—the pinnacle for any Bull Terrier breeder. While we didn't have dogs in the ring this year, the trip was all about the future of Snarfington. From evaluating world-class stock at the Trophies to walking the halls of Crufts, we spent our time connecting with top international breeders and meeting potential stud dogs that align with our vision. We're coming home inspired, with fresh insights and exciting plans for our next generations.
