Re: Dog shows
I also know a few judges that are given the red carpet treatment who would disagree with what you are saying lol
Go to the showground at a steady pace - stay in a hotel the night before - sit for a posh meal - have a bit of a booze up - get up in the morning and be driven to the grounds - waited on hand and foot all day long and sometimes come home with gifts too.....
Pretty nice day out if the weather is nice LOL
Anyway I do agree with what you have both said - most people dont understand how much effort is put into judging - but its an honour to judge in the first place....

Good post Jenny Olley
