There are so many different lists and "Top" this and "Top" that, that I
try
to not get too impressed with the lists. That does not include the top ten
female hard bodies, or the top ten songs of the 50s.
On this list of the top 25, I saw some dogs that have impressed me, such
as
Dexter, and some that I never thought should be listed in the top anything
for German shepherds. I pity number 26, who is probably a perfectly
good
dog.
It appears to have something to do with all-breed showing, and Grand
Champions.
I was pleased to see Kirk in there at 21, and remember when we called
Ellie
Gode to see if possibly our house and stud dog made the top ten. She told
us we had to wait for it to be published the next week. We were blown away
to see that Champion Asgard's Big Ben of Encore ROM was number one. Then
the next year to see his son number one that year.
I guess there is something to this, and I am sure there is some reason to
be proud. I have never watched to see how my dogs were doing, or tried
to
win this sort of competition. I don't even know if there is such a thing
as winner. That seems to mean there is someone who loses.
Maybe we need to do the top German shepherd judges each year. I like
contests where you don't have to pay to enter, you don't know what the
judging
is done on, you don't sweat someone beating you, and you have no idea it
is
coming out until it is decided.
What basis would you use to list judges? Here are my suggestions.
1. Age
2. Mobility
3. Number of dogs judged that year
4. Number of dogs put up from his/her kennel
5. Amount of entry fees paid for his/her own dogs in the prior year
6. Hair, amount, color (natural), and quantity
7. Willingness to pay own way to judge a show
8. Times he/she got in a fight with another judge
9. Times he/she said something new about the dogs they judged after the
show
10. Easiest name to pronounce
What additional criteria would you suggest? Flower Boy?
