Cindy, by all means 'rant '

I agree with what your saying and just hope that when all judges 'judge' they look at the dog from both sides of that fence (if I may call it that) and not lean heavily in either direction but keep the balance between the two.

My concern, and reason for the best was two fold, a) to spark some discussion and b) our own perceptions of judging of late at some shows we have been to that 'seem' to be more focused on look than function. To the point of some breeds look awkward and 'modified'

So thanks for your reply and as said ranting is allowed , and hopefully it might get a few more to openly discuss the issue.

Cheers

Greg
