I hope Emily you report her to the AKC. And anyone else who witnessed he= r behavior. I was not there Saturday. But what I did see on Sunday was = enough. I spoke to Debbie H. on Sunday and told her what I heard ringsi= de. That this AKC rep is going to hurt entries next year. The year I did Topline John Sears came into my ring to complain about do= uble handling and that I was taking too long judging. He had numerous i= ssues and told me to sign his form. I REFUSED, and said I didn't agree = with his assessment. He got white with anger and left the ring.. Than Mo= nday when I got home I call the AKC judges department and filed a compla= int against him and wanted his supervisor informed. I told the judges de= pt. my job was to control inside the ring. And as long as I saw the dog= s at the correct speed and on a loose leash, I didn't care what people d= id outside the ring. I was told by the judges dept. that I was not requ= ired to sign any letter or form. We did the math on the number of dogs e= ntered , start and finish time and she determined I was well within the = time suggested. = Regards, Robert Van Winkle VANDERWERTH ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2007.
