Yet again, Crufts shows that "THAT is NOT the type of GSD we want in the Best In Show ring thank you"

Or maybe there were just better quality dogs than the GSD in the group this year.

GSDUK  Crufts is not a show for the GSD anyway.

Being pulled out third in the pastoral group is a great achievement - why moan ?  I agree with Abbey - its the judges decision and when judging different fantastic specimans of each breed, in one class - favourite has to come in to it.     Mo

Also - Hats of to Mr J Parody.   Crufts GSD judge.    Not because we won lots, but because when looking at his line up, you could see exactly what type of dog he liked, the correctness of those specimens, the soundness in movement, and we were so sure of his consistent judging that when putting one of our little girls in, that has great quality but is not quite so athletic looking as he liked, we knew exactly what place we should be !!!   And she was !!!

I and most others in the UK wondered what Mr Parody would like. I will say it - we wondered if he would appreciate the correct GSD  -   I never met him, or saw him judge before, and with the "Crufts Team" appointing him - it could have been any which way - he was expedient, decisive, not afrraid to withhold a first that he thought was not worthy, tipped out an aggressive dog, and his line up was very consistent in type.  Well done.     Mo.

Crufts, what a contradiction to refuse to sign up for CC's and then brag about results gained under a system that does nothing for the health of the breed, does it matter if entrants have no hip score, missing teeth, closely inbred etc , I wonder what the SV make of it. Still those rosettes sell expensive puppies to pet homes no doubt.

Mo
Congratulations you did brilliantly - and very well deserved too!

It's good to see a judge with a good eye, consistency and the courage of their convictions. We need more like him.

Excellent post Mo and congrats on your placings at this years crufts.Once again,this topic has cropped up.Its always the GSD  BOB  thats getting the negative comments.CH.Elmo was cut to pieces last year n it appears to be happening again.Wonder if it,ll happen next year when Mr.Bill Petrie judges???GSDUK how dare yu presume wot was going thru.the pastoral judges mind in the group.PG3 is nufin to be ashamed of.Where you there spectating?I was n agree with Mo,he did a great job n no i didnt enter as i didnt do too well last time he judged my bitch.Would i enter with a different correct type shepherd,YU BET I WOULD.I also dont see the harm in entering both the KC shows n the regional shows n quite a few that were very vocal(me included)when the letter arrived re non allocation of CC in 2012,are now entering both types of shows.All is not tickety boo in Germany is it.Carole Spelmanl
