Fun Match Judge Bio
Angie Grace Bass

I am thrilled and honored to judge the Conformation Match at the WRA and NOTRA National Meets. My name is Angie Grace Bass of Devereux Whippets.
I have been involved in Whippets since the mid-90’s. I started my adventure in lure coursing and the conformation ring. My true passion has become breeding truly versatile Whippets and taking them to their highest ability of achievements that display their breeding and purpose. I’ve competed in all aspects of Whippet competition from showing in the conformation ring, running my dogs in straight and oval racing and the lure coursing field, as well as handling them in obedience, rally, agility, scent work and dock diving, achieving success in all of these disciplines. I have been blessed to be the breeder, owner, handler of many amazing Whippets. My joy is to produce Whippets that are talented athletes, biddable, beautiful, intelligent and have great drive yet are wonderful companions too! I can’t wait to be a part of such a legendary event and get to see so many beautiful and talented athletes this year at this year’s Nationals.
