Kay, you are so wise. Great post!
Every time we get into this discussion (and I think we should because it
helps to refocus!), there are so many diverse opinions as to what is
important and so many 'knocks' at the dogs in the ring.
I, of course, know better than anyone what dog should be put up - mine!
And Kay is right, the opinion of any judge is just their opinion.
Objectivity is the focus of the standard and the weight that the standard
gives to various constructs is how judging should be weighted - but although
the standard is objective, few of us are in general and none of us are in
regards to ourselves.
So, my point is: It is a sport and a hobby - relax and take your imperfect
dogs and enjoy - If you are on the West Coast. Otherwise, take your perfect
dogs and enjoy them anyway! <G>
Dave
