Fife Show - Page 1

Is this a rhetorical question? If not, could you provide some context and information to support your question?

DID NO ONE COMPLAIN TO THE CLUB? I MISSED THIS SHOW BUT I DID HEAR ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON A CLUB CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL A COMPLAINT IS MADE  AND YES  THIS MUST BE MADE TO STOP AS THIS IS JUST GIVING THE KC FUEL FOR THEIR FIRE

Sheena,

I was at this show, so think i am entitled to an opinion on it.  I for one think the judge did a fair and reasonable job on the day.  I did not agree with everything he did but then again that is dog showing for you!  The heading of this thread is about promoting loose hocks.  I can honestly say apart from a few baby puppies with slightly loose hocks, my own included (only just 6 months), i did not see any of his winners above a year old with loose hocks.  If i am wrong  Kimi then please tell me which ones, as i must have missed them. 

Yes, you may think me biased as my baby puppy Xara won but i am sure that anyone who knows Xara or has seen her can vouch for her quality and anatomical virtues.  Also our youngster Waro winning Best in Show  again!! speaks for itself.

As for the steward having a catalogue in the ring, yes  they should have as they have to ensure the correct dogs are in the correct classes.  I most certainly did not get the impression that any conversation between himself and the judge was anything untoward at all. 

I suppose people will see what they want to see when they are not happy at their animals being beaten and there will always be bad losers but  thought i would throw in my tuppence worth to put a more balanced perspective on events as i saw them.  As we all know there is always two sides to every story......

Kimi, what you have tried to do is slurry every persons animal that won yesterday at that show by your malicious comments.  As far as i am aware Mike Ruston is not particularly friendly with any person in Scotland or has any connections with any kennel, so get over yourself and open your eyes to the dogs in the ring.  I would be interested to know which results you disagreed with and why.  That would at least allow us all to measure whether or not your opinion is one of worth.


Thanks
