I can't imagine showing a dog where I felt they didn't have a shot with one 
 exception....a puppy that I might show a couple of times so that they had 
a bit  of fun and ring experience.  Then I take a hard look and decide if  
they are mature enough to win. 
 
But if I know a judge won't "do" from a young class and I have a young  
superstar...pass.
