About Dianne Barclay
Dianne Barclay gained her group licence in 2009 by her own account, while the federation dates the authorisation to 2011, and is approved by Dogs Australia for the Terrier Group.
She learned grooming and show preparation from respected groomers in the USA, Australia and Europe.
She judged in Australia, Finland, Poland, Sweden, Russia and the USA.

She bought her first Airedale, Mac, who became a well known figure at the family wholesale nursery in Melbourne.
Judging Credentials
Dianne Barclay has been licensed to judge shows since 2011, through Dogs Australia and the FCI.
The licence covers Group 3 (Terriers).
The judge holds a second registration as well: the American Kennel Club approves Barclay for 1 of its own groups, listing the judge as a visiting judge — Terrier Group — a separate system from the FCI's, with different breeds in each group.
Dianne Barclay is listed as an FCI judge under Fédération Cynologique Internationale.
Breeding and Kennel Background
She breeds and exhibits Airedale and Welsh Terriers, always owner groomed, and has also owned and exhibited Irish Terriers and briefly handled Cairn Terriers.
She has exported Airedales under the YorkPark prefix to Sweden, the USA, Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand and most Australian states, and imported champions from Sweden and the USA.
She runs YorkPark jointly with her husband David Barclay, who have had Airedale and Welsh Terriers since 1990, and helps him organise the Lillydale Kennel Club all-breed shows each August.
Club and Organization Roles
She invited by The Combined Terrier Club to judge in New Zealand in April 2023.
