Evidentaly, there are some who are trying to change this abhorant situatiion in the GSD ring by simply not showing to these judges. There were two circuits this past weekend supporting this. One three day circuit had no GSs show two days, one the third day. Another two day show had NO GS entries. One two day show in Texas, had one dog shown that was not owned/bred by the "exhibitors of choice" for these judges. Doesn't that tell someone something ? We have AB shows now that have really good GSs,and in many cases the good ones are winning. The only way we can keep that going and get rid of the c***, is to become involved with the AB clubs and let them know that we will support only those shows that hire judges who 1st know the breeds and 2nd don't judge the "magazines".
