I also think that when using photos or drawings, whether in a seminar or in an Illustrated Standard, pictures of things that are wrong should NOT be included. If people with any kind of brain are innundated only with what is right, it ought to register with them immediately when they see something wrong. When you show people something that is incorrect, some of them will remember that...by the time they enter the ring, they have the incorrect image in their minds as the good one. I've seen it happen so many times that I've lost count...one judge who faulted a Pembroke puppy for having big ears, because she'd twisted everything around in her mind (after ages and ages of study) to think that little Pomeranian-type ears were correct. It didn't help that a lot of the corgis she saw had those crappy little ears, of course. Don't show them anything that's wrong...let them find those things for themselves!
