I have shown under a lot of judges, and won some, and lost some. I know there were times when I should have won and didn't, but most of the time it was ignorance, not politics. Or, maybe they are the same. I don't care who you are, or how long you have show, or how important you may be or not be. If you have a great dog, you will win. I seem to remember a show where I put up Ed's dog, but maybe I am confused. As a grownup, that seems to happen to me more and more these days.
