...and I think that people who choose to put protocol, rules or standards ahead of their dogs comfort also need as much negative press as possible. May I ask what action you would take if a dog you were showing had a fit of stage fright in the ring? Would you kneel to comfort it and let protocol be hanged or would you leave it to suffer in order to keep your ego in tact? No disrespect intended. Just a question from the other side of the gallery :-) .
