I judged what I considered a great dog recently, but as he ran not only did his tail come up, it curled over his back.I tried him alone, in front and in back, and up went the tail. I took the handler aside, looked him in the eye, and before I said a word, he said to me, "The tail, huh?' We both laughed. After the show was over, he came up to me and said, "How can I get upset, there is another show in four days." We all need to remember that.
