We can only give these animals a couple of tries down and back--AKC times 
rules!  For me--if those that did not have a good comming and going but were 
looking TOP NOTCH over all--we must do it again.  Now we are to assume all 
the others being considered were clean.  BUT  I do a second c&g as needed 
when making the final decision.  If "Ms. Nasty" preformer C&G is still the 
same---sorry!  If I cannot see it how can I judge it?  Sandi
