Funny thing is, we are all picking from our hearts and/or from past shows. We aren't there, we don't know which dogs or bitches will put on the best performance, and whether dogs we've liked in the past and don't like so much now will suddenly look superb and just send shivers up the spines of those watching. There's a dog there I finished at a specialty and the next time I had him I beat him ... every day is different. Everything we say is just passing the time..........like I said, we ain't the one doin' the pickin'!
