OH Gee Norma I was not speaking of your integrity what so ever. Nor of the judges. It was making a joke after all every knows all the english dogs are far superior to the American dog I mean isn't that why all the American go over there to buy dogs instead of buying them here? So how could an American dog possibly win in that scenario. And no I was not saying the judges would be thinking that as they were judging. I think of nothing but the dogs in front of me when I am in the ring. There is no time to ponder what if's when you are judging.
When I judge I only see the dog and haven't a clue who is showing it or who owns it or who bred it nor do I care. I pick the dog as many judges do. So lighten up it was suppose to be an interesting topic not annoying. I mean come one what fun it would be to win Crufts but I have not seen anything in the states lately that would beat the lovely dogs I saw this year at Crufts. I think you guys are doing a wonderful job with your breeding programs over there. Sorry what I said sounded different than what I mean I will try to do better next time.
