<< Is winning at Westminster that important to you to disregard preserving the integrity and tradition of the breed? >> The point is the dog is supposed to be judged not the handler. Whether kneeling standing on head forgetting to breathe etc. Pro ..novice. The dogs conformation is what is to be judged. And I doubt kneeling damages the integrity of the breed or hides any faults. I doubt it will become so common as to pose a problem as most of us would require cranes as mentioned to get back up or have bad knees and would topple over in pain and by then everyone would be circling around us gaiting as we kneeled there trying to stiffly get up. The age of people showing dogs is increasing.
