I got a great deal out of Jacks critiques from the Canadian national
2015 he had a wonderful critique on my boy RWD.

Joan Fox ( Linda's only Mother) was doing bitches.... I learned more
about conformation dogs from her critiques that show than any before
or since! If you can get a copy of that National check it out! Joan

SUBJECT: [ SHOWGSD-L ] judges critiques
I love to scour old Reviews. It is fun to see the old greats
advertised before they were the "greats". Fun to see litters
advertised with the one or two in it that went on to win big. What
I really miss is the judges critiques. Back in the 70s and 80s
there were some really great critiques that were published in the
Review. These critiques were detailed and informative. I sure wish
we could make critiques mandatory for all Specialty shows and also
publish them in the Review. I know that just is not possible today.
To have that type of content you need advertisers. Many of those
old Reviews had 100 paid advertisements! Especially just before the
National. And, of course, the shows had ENTRIES! I also liked that
3 to 4 generation pedigrees were often included in the ads. Sad
that the times just don't allow for that sort of thing anymore. I
know that I certainly learned a lot from them.
