Had a  very "unique" experience at the Long Beach KC yesterday.  A  Ms.

in a chair , next to the judges' table  to judge the entirety of GSDs....go
round, down and back ,  temperment,
and individuals....it was the strangest thing I have ever seen,  lol.  The
dogs took it all in stride, but it  was



Kathy--Where in the world have you been--for at least the last  10yrs  since 
the Rheumatoid arthritis has crippled me,I've been doing much  of my judging 
that way. I do the exam, and down and back ,sitting,but then  get up on my 
walker for the  "round the ring gaiting".And this is for all  breeds ,including 
GSDs. Maybe you are too young to remember,but Marie Leary  judged our National 
one year,and got tired--took a chair ,put it in the middle  of the ring,sat 
down,announced that they could "bring the dogs to her"Judged the  whole 
Intersex 
that way. In my case most of the dogs jump up into my  lap--INCLUDING GSDs, I 
don't know the woman,but it might be a temporary thing,.  AKC wouldn't dare  
to interfere( disable persons act) Last spring I did 174  dogs and BIS on Sat., 
at Dubuque KC,and 69 dogs and three Groups on Sunday Two  weeks ago I judged 
Mpls KC and next weekend Granite City KC. I  cutting way  back, at my age,and 
restricting my assignments to local( 5 state) shows now. I  personally feel 
you can exam a dog better sitting down. You are right there at  their level,but 
for the first 40 yrs I did it the customary way--Whichever way--  I love 
judging ,the dogs, and most of the dog people. and in my travels to judge  in 
foreign countries,found that we dog people are all the same. You have friends  
,whether you know it or not,in all dog people. By the way were you satisfied  
with 
her judging?? Helen Miller Fisher
