Subsequently, the first bitch got nothing but an award of merit ribbon. It was totally confusing, chaotic & upsetting for the owners & handler of the first bitch (others also heard the bitch declared the grand champion). And they say we don't have fun at our shows. What great comedy this can provide. When I judged the White National, I screwed up with Selects. I don't remember what I did, but I was corrected. I think I gave a Select Dog to a Bitch. They limit the number of Selects you can give, and I got confused. Which I often do.
