Are you also opposed to handlers showing their Specials if you are only in the classes? Or how about showing a dog from the opposite sex of yours? How about a puppy? Be careful when you condemn all handlers ....be careful when you say they "shouldn't" because you may just take a major away from a struggling club. >>>>>>>>>>>>> It's not right to fix a show so that certain things are going to happen to get results. So, yes... I have a problem with filling classes with subpar dogs in order to obtain a major.
