WKC had no idea what Rumor's record was when they selected the judges for 2016
considering her winning record was in 2015 and they select their judges at
least a year in advance. People should do their homework before bashing. We
want judges to judge the dog on that day also so what difference does it make
since we don't judge records we judge the animal and their performance on that
day. What is being said here a judge who judged records should have been
selected. WKC does not want a judge that judges dog on its record not on its
quality or performance on that day.
I hope people on here and FB will quit the bashing and be happy that Rumor
gave a great performance and made the breed proud. MOVE ON FOLKS.

Did they invite a Canadian Judge for Best in Show because Rumor had won
under most of our U.S. Judges? In Canada you do NOT have to qualify for the
breeds, they are all given to you. German Shepherds from Germany are
exhibited in conformation in Canada, and win. Am I upset, yes I am. We give
Westminister KC perfection and they select a judge that scorns the opinions
of over 100 Best in Shows and their judges by not even acknowledging the
existence of a truly great dog. Last night, The Westminister Kennel Club Dog
Show became....just another dog show...and lost it's magic. Helen Franklin
