Evan and all,
I too am a supporter of the amateur HANDLED futurity and see it as a means of
getting back to the objectives of the system as it was intended.
OBJECTIVES OF THE FUTURITY SYSTEM
In 1984, The Futurity Re-Evaluation Committee, headed by Connie Beckhardt,
listed
the objectives as follows:
To bring together each year as many young animals as possible from
different
bloodline combinations so that the fancy can share and learn by the
accomplishments
of each other.
To provide all club members, large breeders or single puppy owners alike,
the
opportunity to compete year after year under conditions equally favorable to
all.
To provide an incentive to improve Shepherd bloodlines and add to the
excellence of the breed as a whole. The Futurities provide the breeder with
the
opportunity to nominate his litter as a statement of faith in his breeding
program.
To provide a means of early identification to breeders of the strength and
weaknesses of current stud dogs.
To provide a Judging environment that will promote the highest level of
sportsmanship, thereby eliminating direct perceptions of unfairness.

Carole is a big supporter of the amateur futurity.
I am a detractor of the amateur futurity.
Most of those I talk to think the amateur futurity is a waste of time and
delays the show. It is a lot of extra work for the show giving club.
Now I see that it is going to be mandatory in 2013. Was this voted on by
the board, the membership, or even discussed?
I don't mean to denigrate Carole who I think does a fantastic job for us.
But, I don't agree on this one.
