Judging begins at 10:30 The German Shepherd Dog club of Greater New Haven Inc. is pleased to sponsor the Seventh Breed Survey/Evaluation. Bring your show and/or breeding animals, obedience dogs, companions, your chairs, a couple of friends, and your pencils and paper. Description of Event: Two identical Breed Survey forms will be completed on each dog (one by each judge). There will be one ring. Each dog will enter the ring individually and be surveyed and the form completed independently by each Judge. The Judges will not confer with each other. The second part of the evaluation is optional at the owner's discretion. After every dog has been surveyed for that class, the dogs in that class will be called into the ring as a group. The judges will then evaluate the group as a whole but will not move any dog from the armband order. The Judges will then write down their placing of all the dogs in the class again without conferring with the other. They will then give this placing to the steward. The spectators will be encouraged to also write down their placing privately. We will then have the steward announce each Judges placing and the dogs will line up in that order after which the Judge will be given an opportunity to discuss the placing with the spectators. This group will then be dismissed and all exhibitors will be given a signed copy of their dogs Breed Survey/Evaluation by each Judge. A copy of the Survey report will be retained in confidentiality by the GSDC/GNH Inc. for verification of contents only in the event the report is used for publication by the owner and any dispute arises as to the accuracy of the Survey.
