As long as all the members of the GSDCA vote on all the venues, we will have problems. For myself, I do not vote in categories in which I do not participate. This seems logical to me: Why should I choose Obedience judges when I no longer exhibit in Obedience? If the ones knowledgeable in each venue concentrated on that, we would not be arguing the virtues and faults of the judging. I might add, I do not know how to implement this suggestion.<G> Doris E ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2008.
