OK....I have been in and out of this for a bit. Not home much these days , but have been so interested in this subject. I am not trying to upset anyone with my comment, but know I probably will. I am a professional handler also. I do breed cavaliers. I have never gotten down to show a cavalier , nor placed any legs on them in the ring. I give Elaine Whitney credit that she did tell her daughter to get off her knees that day...... It was in the group , and I was watching because I was in it with a peke. I have seen Elaine show cavaliers and not present them on her knees . I have also been in her ring when others have "hit the dirt"( owners and handlers) and she has told them to get up ! Laurie and David have been showing these dogs since the fall and have been on there knees and stacking them 95% of the time . I have been very out spoken about the way cavaliers are presented in North America....... I do remember Elaine and a couple others and myself chatting about this fact at Progressive this year. I will remain out spoken about this untill everyone, owners and handlers stand up and present them the way they are to be presented! I did not take any of the post's as digging at Elaine because she is a judge....... but as a list member that can help bring change.
