And the judge says Loose Leads! , and the dogs still keep racing around  
strung up, and the judge STILL rewards it.   Still happening, no  matter how 
long this has been a subject of conversation.    :-(

And my other pet peeve....  the judge says "Loose lead" and the  handler goes 
fifty miles an hour so the leash is not really tight but the speed  is such 
that it is not what you'd consider the German Shepherd  Dog's gait - it is more 
like a race as to who goes the fastest.  I  cannot imagine that a judge can 
evaluate structure under those conditions.   And.... thinking about working 
dogs -if our dogs were to herd sheep at that  speed, the flock would be dead in 
no time.
