Hi, Linda,
Please don't take offense; no mistake implied. What I said was that
perhaps *Dr. Berndt felt* that it was the best dog; not that it WAS the
best dog. It has been my experience that he is usually fair and I was
more dismayed to hear his name in particular than about your comment on
the handling which I agree is unfortunate. It is my understanding that
we are not to take judges to task on this list.
