If all this person got was congratulations I would have kept my big mouth shut LOL  If someone wants a title on a yorkie that is not within the standard they should be trying obedience or agility because color doesn't matter. I get just as much frustrated with a judge who doesn't judge within the standard the way it is written but with AKC rules I can't approach a judge and give my opinion in fear of a bench committee being called so therefore all I can do is find the AKC rep and voice my concerns that way. This is however, a public fourm and I will always try and keep my comments in a positive light. Education is of the utmost importance and if I don't at least try then I haven't done my job

Thanks for your honesty, keeping your comments in a positive light is great, That's the way we should all voice our opinions. nothing wrong with that at all. And a lot of us get more educated by these post. My post was not about any thing that you had posted, It was about the other post that someone voiced their opinion in that was worded and would only start trouble. I did say we should all just congratulate her on her win, but if you feel you cant then that's ok to this is an open forum. I just don't like seeing them closed .and dont like people having their feelings hurt.
