While I can appreciate the List Rules on who can post brags, it is an interesting twist that only breeders & owners can post but not handlers. So many handlers now breed or co-own the dogs they exhibit, that this rule becomes a distinct disadvantage to one, such as George, who tends not to breed or put his name on his client's dogs. It's a shame that he will now be penalized for not having a "conflict of interest" as a handler. JMHO BTW, I don't have a vested interest in whether or not George can post, I just like to see fairness all around. Personally, I don't care for the redundancy of brags on the same dog, one from each breeder, one from each owner and one from the handler followed by posted congrats from each person who likes the dog.
