I will attest to this. My friend entered our poor Reno last year in Winnipeg 
and Jill put him in the catalogue as REROOF!
Not Jill's fault and we still laugh about it...LOL

  I'm a show secretary for our local GSD club in Canada (too many years, time 
  to retire).  I can count on calling numerous people for information that is 
  either not there (is your dog a boy or girl dog?) or unreadable 
  registration numbers and birthdates, etc.  Sometimes we just have to wing 
  it with what we might think is right, but we have to know what class a dog 
  should be entered in and what sex they are.  Exhibitors SHOULD check the 
  catalogue on show day, and report any errors - typos or spelling mistakes, 
  yours or ours - and they will be corrected in the catalogue sent to the CKC 
  (don't know if the AKC accepts those corrections).    And exhibitors, 
  please be kind and gracious when yelling at the show secretary about 
  catalogue errors, we are only unpaid volunteers working long hours to put 
  on a show for YOU, and we can usually produce the offending entry form to 
  point out the mess we have to decipher.
