I had several of my friends tell me about Mr. White's "ring procedure" or lack thereof. It'll be awhile before he feels the full responce of his "action" or lack thereof, because lack of entries where he is judging is the only way these "judges" fully feel their mistake. Especially when a show is known to pull bigger numbers. Denver is a big show and it is hard to bypass something in your own backyard, but if you feel strongly don't enter and when enough people choose not to give him an entry he'll(hopefully) get the message. AKC is way too lax with "reprimands". Their "take it under advisement attitude" lets some judges get away with poor performances. I had a similar instance happen in Portland,Oregon 6 yrs ago. The judge was Donovon Thompson and his performance was just as appalling. I have passed up at least six shows because he is on the slate. It's been a long time since we've seen him on a judging panel here in the Pacific Northwest and I'd like to think it was because he was boycotted. Entry fees are too high to feel like you've wasted your money, not to mention handling fees and all the other costs. Good luck to all in 2005.
