But what if there was a PERFECT JUDGE? Wouldn't you want to have her judge every national? Should we tell Scoop we only are going to allow him one Grand Victor title, in Canada or America, so that other dogs can have a chance at it. After all, we don't want to limit the Gene Pool to one dog, winning four times. Limits can be good, but not when we have a right to make our own limits with our vote. Have faith in the voters, and have faith in the judge. I realized this morning that the only reason to limit the Selects is a distrust in the judge doing the right thing. I plan to compose a letter to the board pointing that out. But, right now I have to leave for court. Not that there is anything wrong with that.
