Lol, maybe things are different where you are Lee but my numbers are right  
on.  Didn't you see what Cathy posted about her AB club spending $25K  for 
judges fees and expenses one year?  In fact ask Dean Wylie about  Hatboro.  
 
Then we get to the big performance trials...just because YOU haven't  
experienced it doesn't make it untrue.

I am not sure where she is getting her figures. I am show Chairman for my  
AB club (apx 15 years now) and treasurer for 25 years I have never written a 
 check to a judge for 2000.00 for 2 days of judging. She must be living in 
lala  land. In fact never written a check to any of judge for anything close 
to  $200O.00 for two days.

Whoa,  wait a minute.  There maybe judges that can command  that kind of 
money

but NOT the majority, by any means.  I judge  the Herding Group, 7 Working 
Breeds and

3 Sporting Breeds.....on  average, I judge around 10 weekends out of the 
year.  What  money

I do get paid does not quite cover my expenses....and it has  nothing to do 
with the hundreds

of dollars I spend at Nationals,  Seminars, visiting kennel, etc. to learn 
about the breeds and

meet  the criteria AKC demands (none of which AKC pays one red cent for).   
BTW, Provisional

judges average $3 to $4 per dog, depending on the  club...and that's 
it.....and it does not 

cover the cost of judging  at that show.  And, oh yes, if you judge Junior 
Showmanship,  that

gets thrown into the mix sometimes.....I have had entries of 20  to 94 at 
various...and some clubs

don't charge for Juniors so you  don't get paid for judging them...



NOPE...sorry to burst your  balloon.  There are only a few judges that can 
demand Top dollar  and

get it. The rest of us do it because we love the dogs and the  
Sport.....trust me, I belong to three

judges groups and assignments  and fees get discussed all the time.
