When my late husband was judging a specialty match(can't remember if it was GSD or Irish Wolfhounds) he mentioned to the handler, that the dog only had one testicle, and that was a disqualifying fault. The handler answered with" he is doing that again" slapped him (the dog) on the back and asked my husband to check again. Sure enough the second exam he had both. True story. Go figure??? Anyway, brings back fond memories for me, and how much my husband enjoyed all aspects of showing dogs.
