Addressing your comment, "those that have stopped showing," and those that
don't
compete...etc. Some of those are our very best! Ed Barritt doesn't lack
for Judging Assignments,
Dave Rinke, and a large number don't compete regularly but are great
judges. Rita Sandell does a
great job but there are many that do. I think I do a great job and have
judged 4 Nationals and been
elected to judge 5 Nationals. Circumstances and my age have me living
where I can no longer
"compete" but I am active as Chair of AOE, Award of Excellence, and attend
shows as much as
possible. Evan, I also so agree with you....dogs are the best they have
ever been. So many beautiful
dogs. They HAVE gotten better and sounder and more in compliance with our
standard. That is
because we also are holding judges accountable for putting up dogs that are
unsound! Bravo to the
ringside and the exhibitors. No more dogs knitting and pearling as they go
away....now we have
dogs that are single tracking with straight hocks....yeah!!! If the
exhibitors don't allow judges to "bend"
or do a bad job....they can't. Judges do not have to exhibit to be a good
judge....they have to have
years of experience and exhibit that they KNOW what they are doing. They
have to prove their
knowledge and that is done by the results and their winners PERIOD!
