I am sure I do not understand thses e-mails partaining to a blue ribbon. 
When you enter a dog show it is in hopes of going winners.......If the dog 
does not meet the standards of the judge for first place  so be it....If you 
don't like it DON'T SHOW UNDER THAT JUDGE AGAIN!!!!...The judge did not 
decide to withhold a ribbon just because he(or she) had nothing better to 
do....If it really bothers you, at the end of the show, take the dog with 
you to the judge and ask why the ribbon was withheld..I am sure most judges 
will be glad to tell you.
