  1. Someone i know imported a Dobeemann and the cost of the dog, flight and customs ect ect was 2,500 all up. Hope that helps
  2. Just want to say if 2pm set up, you can not let your mates in early and not expect others to follow. Sometimes comities dont follow there own rules and are the problem by doing so.
  3. Did you see and hear this yourself, and if so, did you tell the committee or the show rep? Yes i did.
  4. It is not only local and interstate judges that face judge, i have been at shows with international judges and a breeder has sat with the judges for best in show while the other half was in the ring and when the other half wins they come out to the judges and kiss and cuddle them and state, we owe you a couple of bottles of wine do you like red or white. And another who after winning talkes to the judges about how they will be in (what ever country judging next week) why dont you come with me. And another who has the judges over for dinner that night. guess who one the next day.
  5. I think it is expense and face judging, most hobbies are expensive so i dont mind paying for something i love doing and sometimes it can be a struggle. But its hard to justify paying for something that you no you have no chance at before you even enter.I have had one foot in the ring as the winner has been walking out many times. And judges gazing into another ring as i am showing my dog, I have payed to have my dog judged have i not. And nearly everyone knows who the winners are before the show starts. I have done a fair bit of winning but i have payed out a fortune to watch the people i know are going to win, and that i think is why people are getting into other types of dog sports and leaving the show ring.
