Sorry you were upset about the dress thing. I just remember you telling me your dress had ripped and presumed that it upset you while judging,so you ran the dogs the wrong way, I think you are being way too sensitive . No one was criticizing your judging I certainly made no comment on that. But people remember Nationals for certain things. People will remember Utah ,for what happened to the Kobe Dog. And at a early National in Seattle,people remember that Connie Beckhardt wanted a table to write on, while doing Specials ,and that I put up a all black bitch that passed the T.T ,but spooked when being photographed, Odd things happen all the time ,and that's what people remember. Bad judging is remembered,not good judging. And of course you did a good job,you always have--just like you did this time. I'm sure people were pleased with your approach and decisions,and will want you again for judging at our Nationals.
