MISSING POST - judging the dog or the handler - Page 1

PADDL

i am the co-owner of the irish female you are talking about but couldnt make the 2 shows due to work,so Sam Hall took the female in for us (we normally take in our own because we dont believe in paying for something we enjoy).Sam won 2 open classes and 1CC and 1RCC,so we were more than happy with that. When we go over again Sam will be asked to take her and if she cant one of us will and the other call the dog,no  Andrew or Stevie etc.

We know the same as everyone what goes on with some judges and handlers but what about it,if thats the way people want to make up cahmpions,let them at it.At least if we ever make up one here in the UK it will be a honest one.

At the end of the day the judge is just making little of him/herself when they pick faces.I have been at shows were look at the line up for best dog or bitch and you and everyone knows there were better dog/bitches that should of been there.

Hi INGO,

 Good to see that you have the guts to stick with your handler. You have a super female.  I agree show your own, no point in paying hundreds of pounds for a handler to win a CC when you can do it yourself.  But what if such a nice female doesnt get her other 2 tickets.  Wil you be content with your not  so well known face.  And then sit down and say "What If"

Will Sam be coming over to Ireland for any more shows anytime soon. Bit of a flop the last time wouldnt you say.

I wish you well. 

hi ingo u may no of me i have same problem with my girl but i was also told i have nothing to offer  to get my girl made up who is handled by our daughter who can keep up with andrew and steve she has got 3 rcc with our girl and has recieved ticket with another and handled many first place animals   we like u can say al our wins are honest owe nobody nothing and nobody owes us nothing so were do we go wrong maybe we dont but then u start to question urself and is it all worth it

Hi there Ingo, hows it going.

Your female is stunning. Sam is doing a class job with her. Stick to your guns.  Sam has also handled one or two of mine and did very well for me. Mine are not just as good as yours, so with top results I was over the moon.

Best Wishes and hope to see you again soon.

I have to say any female, either her be Irish/ English thats been handled by Bishop Casey or Podge and Rodge and gets a CC and Res is doing well, fair play to Ingo she will be a honest champion, and owe it to themselfs to make her up, I agree the female is a stunner but credit to owers for the work and travelling they do with her. 

I also agree with paddyl the handlers are judged as with home judges the ower is, to many favours owed out there. So maybe get rid of the dogs and race around the ring.

One more thing, judging faces, I  rather look at Sams  face any day, and for F**k sake take those those boys off there pedestal and give them a bad dog and let them earn money, not a schooled dog that will do it on there own.

Dude
