BOB
Florida Circuit
taking the breed over the 2008 Eukanuba Classic breed winner
We thought this was Bullet's last show in the US before returning home after a long awaited 7 months
However disaster struck for the second time - the vet in the USA sent Bullets blood test to the wrong laboratory
and DEFRA have ruled that he can not come home for a further 6 months.
With the help of our MP Andrew Selous we appealed to the Secretary of State, Hilary Benn MP
to permit a 'risk assessment' which could allow Bullet home sooner. With 2 vaccinations, 4 blood tests and a
titre 9 times the required levels Bullet presents zero risk.  After a 9 weeks wait we were finally told
that Bullet could not come home until July 28 2009.  His case was raised in the House of Parliament on 24 June.
