Until only qualifyed judges judge in proper sized rings Yes I mean it from the bottom of my heart.Now read the rest of this post don't stop at YES I MEAN IT. Until the above conditions are met and any judge that judges has to forfill the same requirments as anyone applying for Shepherds Lic. only must forfill. and some of the rules are changed. Did you know that it is possible for a GSD to finish his championship in the all breed ring without EVER having defeated another GSD .He/She could be the only entry go BOB then 1st in group and end up with 5 points. Now you will say that will never happen. Well I know of single entrys that have ended up with a major. If it can happen it might. The rule must be changed. Until the things I have just said are done YES I MEAN IT FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART. fred ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
