Some judges understand the intent and honor the supplement letter from the YTCA, but some will only judge by the written standard (which is what they are paid by us to do), so we as exhibitors have to pick and choose our judges carefully and what dogs to show to them. |
Even with or without a DQ, I still pick and choose my judges LOL LOL...and I agree they will judge their ring on any given day as to how they want too
I probably had that same look Sonja LOL
