I was not there, but I understand that Goldfarb judged like a German judge, not the usual American style. Ann It does, a contract was signed to do so. It was pointed out to Dr. Goldfarb after he had already judged about 12 dogs and he said he would do so.....at that point it was moot as all had to be judged equally. Apparently in normal german style judging, courage test would have already been done by this point.
