I thought there were already rules in place about the number of dogs a
judge is supposed to judge in a designated length of time..at least there
is at all-breeds, and I understand that when new judges are doing their
provisionals..this is one thing the Rep is looking for..and provisional
judges will get a stern reprimand if they take too long...there must be a
reason the AKC wants things moved along...but perhaps they have never
considered having "fun" when they designed the rules for judging
dogs....that could be a project for you ..write the AKC..and ask them if
they could waiver the rule..so we can have "Fun"..because..after all..this
is what dogs shows are about..having "fun.."..let me know what you hear
back. Christine
