Morton is so right........critiques area marvelous tool for learning. One
never forgets
the lesson learned from a good explanation of a good judge's decisions. In the
early 60s
I was showing a litter brother to GVX Donna. This puppy was lovely and had
never
been beaten until two NM shows, one under Lloyd Brackett and the other under
Ernie
Loeb. In their critiques they both explained that his upright pasterns
indicated a short
upper arm. Sure enough, they were correct, but it is probably something that
many people
today do not know.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] critiques and fall out
Several comments on not needing the judges opinion on the animal judged.
That may well be true BUT what about those watching who may not know everything
there is to know about the breed as the person who bred the dog or owns the dog
or recently purchased the dog.
We can ALL learn from others and, again, perhaps with these little explanations
a new person now understands what the judge saw that made their decision.
There is no perfect specimen but all have faults some more significant than
others--but I know ---your dog is the perfect specimen(:
There is no question in my mind that requiring critiques at the shows will
increase knowledge and act as a stimulus to increase membership.
Just look at the enthusiasm and participation, with many young people, that the
WDA and (forgive me) Sch USA has gleamed.
We need youth- we need more entries and besides the above mentioned I have
several ideas that I will bring to the Board to consider in the future.
As previously mentioned a critique can and should be given with facts that are
meaningful that all can see and done in a positive way not negative.
Thanks,
Morton
