That is WAY too much reading for some judges. And, don't forget, some judges
on this List (and off...like those who have posts from this list illegally
forwarded to them) have serious reading comprehension problems.
I have a great idea - Someone e-mail the GSDCA AOE Select Excellent
Committee, and ASK for an explanation of the new AKC Grand Champion title!!
That should be very interesting!! They do seem to have such a great
understanding of AKC functions and awards. Though they may take issue with the
Select award!! That silly AKC - always usurping GSDCA stuff!!! :-) :-)
This is just too much fun!!!!
