I'm not a judge, but if there were no other "decent type" German Shepherds
in the ring, I'm thinking I would give a ribbon. I never understood the
concept of holding back a ribbon - you hold back first and award only second
(& 3rd or 4th). So the dog is SECOND to who ???
**************************************************
I will give you my reasons for not giving first place to a dog with a major
fault such as Tempermant. If you are judging a fairly large entry by the time
you get to Winners class you may forget that say the 9/12 dog was faulted for
Temperament. What happens then if you forget and award it the points. If you
give the animal a second then it does not come back in the ring for winner, no
room for error. As just pointed out by Fred in his mistake which can happen to
any of us as judge we could all make the same mistake that he did.
Something for you to think about if you decide to judge unless you feel that
would not make those mistakes. <G>
