I'd like to add, that while the better ones will usually look good in the early passes... they will surely be looking far better in latter passes (YES PLURAL); whereas, their less that properly put together counterparts will not have it after "plural" passes. I wasn't there, I didn't get to see it - but frankly if my special got one turn around the ring --- I'd be PISSED! To say the least. Afterall -- form for function --- Primary function is to be a working animal. 2 laps does not work make. But then, I'm not a judge so what the hell do I know. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Kathaleen Strong - Inflight Kennels Reg'd - Breeders of: 1995 US GV Spencer, AOE-1996 US GVx Heaven Only Knows, Jubilee ROM http://inflight.cnc.net ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
