My experience, is that very few people make breeding decisions based on the 
critique of a judge. If they do, they do so on the critique of the a judge 
who's opinion they respect highly. In general, i find that most people who 
choose to breed to a stud dog, do so after seeing him live and in person  or 
they get input from a friend or associate who's opinion they respect. Breeders, 
in the real sense, take it a step further by investigating bloodlines, looking 
at other progeny etc etc. I find true "Breeders" to be an independent group who 
think for themselves and trust their own mind, instinct and knowledge over any 
second hand information.
Now with that being said, critiques as they are written today, are interesting 
reading but more a reflection of the judges knowledge or lack thereof.
Dave Rinke did a critique at ringside at a local show and showed that he's 
confident in his opinion and knowledge to put himself in that position. I 
wonder how many judges have that capability???

How about this critique. The judge is one of those many many judges that  
people feel is incompetent. He/she critiques your male and does a bad job and  
says your dog has short comings that he really does not have. Now all the 
people 
who know your dog know this not accurate but the person who lives on the 
other  side of the state who was going to breed to your dog reads this 
published  
critique and changes his mind and goes elsewhere. You lose the bitch owner 
loses  and maybe the dog world loses a good one.
You can expand on this theme to include all the other possibilities of a  
poor critique that is not accurate.
