It is a big disappointment that Rumor did not win and she should have.
Boils down to one mans opinion one night but takes nothing away from
a great GSD. They stated that the judge does not see the dogs before
hand but sure he watched the news last night. Someone on NBC made a comment
that they thought Rumor might be Best In Show.
It appears he knows the sporting dogs so doubt he has much
experience in the GSD.

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.
