RE:  All-breed vs. Specialty
To say that the best dogs don't do all-breed shows is ridiculous.    I have
stated on this list in the past that I have judged several dogs and Bitches
who went on to become Select animals, sometimes more than one time.......and
I judged them while they were in the classes at various all-breed
shows......to name just a few:  Conan, Indy, Spellbinder, some of the Ardric
dogs, Madeb's Hellraiser (who went on to Canadian GVX), Final Fantasy, and
others.     I've had others there, too...and sometimes they didn't win.
They didn't always win at specialties, either.

  Every judge makes mistakes.  No judge is perfect.  Every dog has a bad
day.  No dog is perfect.  But people will always look for an excuse.
There ARE some good judges who judge at all-breeds.  There ARE some breed
specialist judges whose opinions aren't worth the entry fee.

You pays your money and you takes your choice.  If you don't take your best
to the all-breed shows sometimes, shame on you.

Peggy
