Yes, its true the Breed Club does hired the judges, but they also have many outside influences, namely favors, favorite judges, personal agendas. We live in a society were if you do for me I will do for you.
I have personally been told by a UK judge that had encountered an AKC judge (not all) that the person was less than willing to discuss dogs with her, she tried more than once to engage this person in conversation, and in the end she felt like she had been snubbed. For instance a member of one club actually called the president of another club giving a show and she was told the her club should not hire this UK judge, who by the way is a highly respected judge in England, would you call this a personal agenda? If only goes to show that everything in life has a price in one form or another.
