You make a good point. I witnessed just such a thing with a class of Canaan
dogs.....The judged had two or three class winners but gave no points. The
question from the exhibitors was, "well if my dog was so bad why did the judge
give him a blue ribbon in the first place".
Either way it's not a pleasant situation for anyone.

IMO withholding a ribbon is mean spirited particularly when there is only one
dog in the class. If the judge wants to make a statement, I'd rather see
him/her say something directly to the person about the quality of the dog
rather than make a public spectical of the individual and their dog in front of
everyone.
Now, withholding points is another story

I disagree with you on this one. I don't think it is making a statement I think
it is keeping the dog out of the Winners class. A blue ribbon is the dogs
tickets to winners and if you are giving him the blue then in my opinion you
make a fool of yourself as a judge if you withhold the points. If it is good
enough for a blue to come back in winners then it should certainly be good
enough for the points since you already confirmed him to return to winners
class.
