Wow, this is NOT right IMHO  -- #1 Did the same handler take the dog into 
the AB ring as the Specialty one?
#2 Try to educate this thoughtful owner of certain "personal preferances 
like in anything else" that this questionable
judge may have -----   #3 Everything we've been chatting about for -- even 
legislation, shelters, etc. etc. all seems
to go back to the one thing that is lacking in so many instances ---  
"education of the human involved"  Why would
the opinion of just 1 judge be so important --- also, an explanation for the 
reason for - withholding a ribbon should
be the NORM!!  Looks like this judge needs a second look for all and sundry. 
JMHO     Norma no L

A new to showing GSD person, not new to GSDs, recently bought a lovely pup, 
showed her in the Lake Elmo specialty, hired a well known handler who also 
liked the pup and ended up placing 2nd out of 6 in one of the puppy classes.
Sounds good right?  Well I just got a phone call saying that the pup was 
just shown at an all-breed show today and didn't exactly have the same 
success.  The puppy was the only one in the class and came out with a second 
place ribbon.  First of all I didn't even know that was possible.  I thought 
the ribbon was withheld if the dog wasn't worthy.  The judge informed this 
woman that this animal was not of the quality to deserve being in his ring. 
Also she was told to never breed this bitch.  Now, besides the outrageous 
lack of consistency in the two rings,  why would someone new ever want to 
come back after being spoken to that way...  I was at a loss for words after 
this phone call...  I didn't know what to tell her...
