My perspective is a bit different then Sheila's, although I do agree that ROM's are the backbone of a breeding program. Achieving the ultimate goal of GV of GVx is what we are striving for. Who most closely represents the standard at "our" most prestigious show, the National, under our highly regarded judges and against the stiffest of competition. Grand Victors and Victrix's are likely a once in a life time achievement.
