Why would anyone show a long coat at nationals without a separate class? Except
in rare cases, judges see the coat and immediately disregard. With the level of
quality without a long coat shown at nationals, why would anyone put a beloved
animal out there? Fewer people that have any reason to enter the national. We
continue to shrink.

You can show a long coat at the National....there is just no more specific
classes for a specificfault! YAAAAAAAAAAAY! As it was it almost seemed
like "showcasing" a particular fault. <G> You can show a dog with any fault
at any show including our National. You just cannot show a dog with a
DISQUALIFYING fault. THAT is the POINT of a DQ.
You can even win with a dog with a fault....and you can breed a dog with a
fault. Some faults are sominor on a magnificent animal that they can and do
win......including coats. What most of us did objectto was to have extra
classes for a fault!! Almost like 'showcasing' a fault....and It just
added to thelength of the National...and cost and time. Since we are so
concerned about LOSS for the Club and our National......every aspect of loss
should be looked at including length, rather than make the National site
unattainable for many. Hopefully this is a good start. Carolyn

am confused. If you are allowed to show a coated dog in the shows why are u
not allowed to show at the Nationals? Tanya D'Armand On Monday, August 15,
