Did they invite a Canadian Judge for Best in Show because Rumor had won
under most of our U.S. Judges? In Canada you do NOT have to qualify for
the breeds, they are all given to you. German Shepherds from Germany are
exhibited in conformation in Canada, and win. Am I upset, yes I am. We
give Westminister KC perfection and they select a judge that scorns the
opinions of over 100 Best in Shows and their judges by not even
acknowledging the existence of a truly great dog. Last night, The
Westminister Kennel Club Dog Show became....just another dog show...and
lost it's magic.
