I totally agree.? Every judges has their preferences.? Sometimes a dog that showed pretty well could have a bad day.? For doing a Grand Victor you need every stars on your side THAT DAY! ? It is a chance you take (and this is my humble opinion!!) entering a GV or Select in the open class and hoping that dog is going to be perfect on that day to win the class and be the winner dog or bitch.? It is a big gamble?as you never know what to expect on that day.? And you don't have room for mistake..only one will make it! If you want to be sure that the dog has a real chance he must be in the special class.? ?
