If we redefine the title to represent what happens in the ring, which is
that the dogs and bitches are of excellent quality, then how many select
ratings
are awarded is naturally left up to the judge. If we define the select rating
as equivalent to a GV or GVX, then the argument that there should only be a
few holds more merit.

I think Select is defined just perfectly as it is. Just because one judge
got a little carried away with it one year is no reason to legislate every
judge. I'd rather err on the side of too many selects than perhaps not
honoring an
exceptional animal just because it was a bumper crop year for great dogs.
And face it folks.....with the costs of showing now, only those who really
think
they have a shot will be entering in the future anyway....so let's leave the
incentive alone.
Besides, I think the judges have gotten the message <G>
