That analogy reminded me of a judge I showed under in the AB ring. I wish I could remember his name. My dog was entered in AmBred. There were two puppy classes ahead of him. When the judge approached and asked me to show the bite, I did so. He then asked me if I was a Dobie handler. I said I was not and he commented that he asked because I knew how to correctly show a dog's bite. Maybe I should learn more about Dobies, lol!
