I guess i don't see what that has to do with my post that you replied to: The poster was talking about breeder judges refusing to judge all breeds and i said "we need to be asked to judge" Most all breed clubs choose judges that can do all the herding breeds for economical reasons, so where does my post get to be a perfect example of keeping the breed to a small group of people. When i am asked to judge all-breeds i accept them. I am not bashing all breed judges and i can't argue the fact that they need education......
