limping,  


It amazes me how many times we see dogs blatantly limping (why the dog is  in 
the ring in the first place is beyond me) I mean really really limping or  
hitching, and it is allowed to continue with the rest of the class.  When I  
used to judge 4H in Texas (gawd eons ago) I sent a limping Western Pleasure  
horse out of the ring, with screaming parents for my reward. The animal was  
clearly in pain, and I had pulled him to the center and explained to the  
charming 
little girl aboard that she needed to go and have her horse looked at,  and 
that he would probably be fine for the next show. She was fine, but the  
PARENTS!!  My Lord I thought I would need an armed escort from the  place.  
This was 
one of the top 4H and and AQHA Youth horses in the  state.....
But to allow a dog to continue, makes no sense, even when people chalk it  up 
to Pano or something.  Shouldn' t a dog be at the very least set out of  the 
class for the sake of the dog, and maybe  a lesson to the handler from  the 
judge "Don't bring me a limping or hitching dog?"
