Buzz, Sorry to hear about the flooding & snow. I was just going to let you know I'll be coming. I hope it doesn't get rescheduled so I can't come. I'm going...

The question is what would work better for all concerned. What it really looks like you are saying is the pro's are picking the judges because they handle more...
Hi All- Interesting conversation. The largest number of votes (of the dogs that ran) is held not by the pros as Harry speculated, but by AR - an Amateur....
Hi there, Is this really true that a person gets 1 vote for National judges for each qualified dog they own? The easy way to fix this is going the way the...
It would make book work easier. Question now is should it be brought up with the FEC? I would think your area Representative could bring it up and see...

That has been discussed and might be a good idea. What if we had an early entry, maybe with a $30 deposit, and once the judges were nominated those that were...
Ah, my mistake to assume the people handlling the most dogs were pro's. I forgot that unless you are a professional trainer you aren't considered a pro. It...
I think Chris's thoughts and the data to support them are quite persuasive. One difficulty is that those who will actually run are not known when judges are...
I think we might be straying down the wrong path when we look at the number of dogs entered in a National versus the number of votes given out.  1. A...
Hi Dick- Or, we could accept early entries with a minimal deposit ($30) with the balance due before the closing date. That way there would be no paperwork to...
Hi Bethann- Excellent points. There is no way to be 100% certain of anything, but the effort should be to get close. With either the intent to enter (and I...
I agree. I think each person qualified should get 1 vote. And if someone knows that they are absolutely not going, they shouldn't vote. Not kept track of,...

I'm not sure why the competitors have a choice in who their judges are. Also why this debate in the first place? It almost looks like some people think all the...
Joe, it seems the more things change the more they stay the same. Just throw all the judges name into a hat and take what gets picked. Better yet just hunt the...
