The futurity committee is always open to new ideas.  What do you think the 
requirements of a non-licensed judge should be?

Carolyn- I could not agree with you more.  Although I am doing a Futurity this 
year, it has always been my belief that AKC recognized judges should not be 
allowed to judge our futurities.  I feel it is a great honor to be selected to 
judge a futurity and accepting that honor is very fulfilling as a judge.  The 
futurities are supposed to be a breeders showcase and I think breeders should 
judge the futurities.  The present requirements to judge a futurity are much 
too 
restrictive and need revision.  Many people who disagree with me point out the 
occasional disaster futurity when judged by a novice judge.  What about the 
disaster when a recognized judge does a futurity?  This is something the 
Futurity Committee should consider e.g. changing the judging requirements.   
D.D.
