JUDGE PROFILE
ROSS DELMAR (IRELAND)Ross was born into dogs, being a third-generation breeder, judge and exhibitor. His grandfather, Joe Delmar, established the now famous Shillelagh Kennels in 1945, being one of the most successful terrier kennels in Ireland. Shillelagh specialised in Kerry Blue Terriers, Irish Terriers and Fox Terriers (Smooth). Joe was an All Breeds Judge and judged widely, and Ross’ parents, Sean and Cathy Delmar, continued the Kennel, and are both All Breeds Judges.
It was 40 years ago when Ross first attended a dog show! He has bred dogs himself under the family kennel prefix, specialising in Fox Terriers (Smooth). He has shown, bred and made up Champions in Fox Terriers (Smooth) in Ireland, England, South Africa, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, France, Finland, USA, Denmark and Norway. Ross has won Top Dog All Breeds in Ireland with a Smooth Fox Terrier and his dogs have been awarded Top Terrier on 11 occasions. Ross has also bred, shown and made up Champions in Kerry Blue Terriers in Ireland, England, Denmark, Australia and USA.
Ross began his judging journey in 1998. He is now an FCI judge and awards CACIBS in all breeds in Groups 3, 7, 8 and 9 and is licenced to judge BIS in Ireland. Over the past 20 years Ross has judged widely, gaining wonderful experience at some outstanding events. Ross has judged in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands including the Amsterdam Winners Show, Czech Republic, Lithuania, Croatia, Germany, Estonia, Spain and Portugal. He has also had the pleasure to judge several terrier specialties, including specialties for Fox Terriers and Kerry Blue Terriers.
Ross is a member of the Irish Kennel Club Judges and Education Committee. He has been an Irish Kennel Club Representative for 13 years. Ross is Secretary of the Irish Fox Terrier Club and on the Committee of the Irish Native Breeds Club and the Dublin Irish Blue Terrier Club.

Melbourne Royal is thrilled to have secured the services of Ross Delmar. He was born into dogs, has experienced great success with his breeding and exhibiting, and for the last 20 years he has proven himself as a judge widely across the Northern Hemisphere. This will be Ross’ first trip to Australia and we hope he will enjoy the challenge of judging our dogs.
