I'm glad to learn this. I really appreciate getting some good info. I think there is some confusion among people who don't show (like myself) about the AKC rules. And, since I would like to someday show, I'd like to learn the truth.
It raises new questions though:
1. What does it mean "will not put it up"? Do you mean won't let it win a position? Would the judge examine the dog and let her walk around for judging, or not even let her enter the ring?
2. What would be a disqualifying color?
Thank you so much!
