Hi Pam, Just my opinion...Andy was shown beautifully. The handler was on one knee in front of the dog..at least a foot or two in front in order to show off his lovely out line..and it is lovely.. There is so little time to display your dogs best features in the AKC ring..why not give the handler credit for doing a super job. Andy looked great..very Cavalier!..tail wagging and carried properly, moving very well and looking like the happy little dog he is..the gentle spaniel..smiling at the judge and his handler..what more could we ask for... JoAnn
