Bill- Great e-mail. You explained the "loose lead" situation much better than
I did. There must be something in the water down here in South Louisiana as
Lee B., Randy C. and myself are all loose lead nuts. D.D.

From a handlers standpoint, we know exactly who requires a loose lead and who
does not.
Those judges that really require a loose lead, do it because they understand
it is VITAL in understanding the motion of a dog in the show ring, and as such
insist upon it as CENTRAL to their procedure. In my way of thinking, they show
their RESPECT for the GSD's gait and give it's just due by insisting upon the
loose lead.Those that do not, either don't know or aren't interested in judging
dogs, but have other motives get in the way.
About 15 yrs ago when i started handling and didn't have the experience to
know which judges meant business and which didn't, i used as my cue a very
famous West Coast handler(who today as graduated to running for the board), who
had 30 yrs in the breed already and who i respect as a "smart" cookie. By
watching him, i learned quickly those who required it and those who gave it
"lip service".

P.S. The handlers are not defying the judge when they do not give him a
loose lead(lip service judges) but they will give the judges who mean it a
loose lead when asked. They know who is sincere and who is not.

I've told a few if you don't put it on a loose lead you cannot win today.
If
they don't put them on a loose lead I assume the dog would fall apart on a
loose lead and they rather lose looking good then lose because their dog
fell
apart. And they don't win, that simple
