A friend and I were discussing adding a few judges to our "LIST of JUDGES, PRO & CON", and thought it might be good to create that list PRIVATELY among more people. I went to the show that Linda Robey judged this last weekend and can report that she has a nice smile, talks pleasantly to the dog, has a nice ring procedure. Any other comments would be private :-). However, that's the point, Commenting good or bad on a public list, unless it's outstandingly bad, only creates a problem as the winners would cry sour grapes and the losers can be seen as poor losers. But wouldn't that be a good way to find dogs that can see past a minor fault to find a good dog, and to know those judges that can't stand the long lean dogs, or those judges that find a missing premolar to be a cause for the end of the line? Or those judges that LOVE square, stocky GSDs? I'm willing to be the list holder, and forward out comments anonymously. Even collect and report on a regular basis. We all can't know ALL the judges going around and enter our dogs accordingly.
