Ah, the "best made plans of mice and men", etc.? Louise

What happened in California? Must have missed the previous posts. Judy

good point louise!

It only makes sense to have the judge that judges the protection not judge the conformation. If you recall the last NASS in Pittsburgh had scheduling problems, the working classes were messed up as things went out of order while the judges were on the field and in the ring at the same time. There was a thread about it here on this board. This is similar to the German sieger show and USA sieger show where seperate judges judge protection and conformation.
