Clare Lee
Clare Lee was brought up with Staffordshire Bull Terriers. Her father, Mr Cairns, was the founder of the famous Constones kennels, with whom Clare and her husband went into partnership in the 1960s.
Since the sixties, nine UK Staffords and numerous other winners have carried the Constones prefix, most famous of all being Ch. Constones Yer Man, who broke the then breed record and retired after winning his twentieth CC and Best of Breed at the Centenary Crufts Dog Show. He was also the sire of 11 Champions.
Clare has been awarding Challenge Certificates since 1973 and has judged throughout the UK, including at Crufts in 1985, the fiftieth anniversary of the recognition of the breed, Clare has also judged throughout Europe (Austria, Belgium, Eire, Finland, Germany, Holland, Spain and Sweden) as well as around the rest of the world (Australia, Canada, South Africa and the United States)
Clare regularly gives seminars on the breed and is the author of Pet Owner’s Guide to the Staffordshire Bull Terrier, published by Ringpress Books.

Danom was a pillar of the breed, winning no fewer than 11 Challenge Certificates and siring a further 11 Champions. In total, a dozen CC winners carry the Eastaff prefix.
