:cheers: Well done Bridget. I know that Joy was delighted as well. I bet that newest addition to the family, Dejare Cobweb , was proud of all his relatives. I was hoping to cadge a lift and come to watch but enforced prolonged incarcaration in a hospital bed put paid to that! Can't wait for Coby to make his ring debut. Thank goodness Herbie will be out of puppy classes by then. It will give everyone else a chance!!!!!

I personally wouldn't go under him again, I didn't feel he was particularly heavy handed with the whippets, but just didn't seem very interested and I felt he thought he was above it all and didn't really want to be there :- " AND he was the one who shouted at SILAS that she couldn't challenge for BP when she could have, so he was wrong as well as rude!Jasbri said:Dessie - the breed judge was M Cocozza (Freecloud) I was very happy with his placings
but he is not the most gentle or sympathetic person to go over whippets :blink:
& I think he might have been wearing roller skates, from the speed at which he moved!

Just checked my show records and we were under him 3 1/2 years ago when Savvy was still a puppy. I don't remember him being heavy handed on the table, but I do remember it was the fastest judged class that I ever was in. No time to stack your dog or do much of anything.... I didn't mark him one way or the other though the way I do now.
Can't complain too much - we were brand new to showing and Savvy got VHC out of 7, so.....

Is that in his dreams??? :b LOL!
Well done, super day for you and Joy.
I wouldnt go under him again either, Im sure he knows his job but like some of you I too thought he was far too fast and disinterested in what was going on in his own ring.
I guess our names will be mud now for daring to say anything about a judge.

(w00t) Seriously, it is only our own personal observations from when we have shown under him - NOT hearsay or rumour or just bitchiness. There is no difference at all between this and when for example we say another judge is very gentle going over dogs on the table and takes a long time in deciding.But like Dessie said, her dogs like a good firm 'going over' ( (w00t) ) and therefore found him to be fine, every exhibitor has their own preferences as to why they like a judge - I personally, like it when a judge checks the pads on the feet (just a little thing - but I think it is important!). I don't care what the judge decides as long as I feel have had value for money - meaning they have taken the time and gone over each dog thoroughly and watched each dog when it has moved. I HATE it when a judge is looking at something else when you are moving your dog - but I have to say (to bring this thread back in) M Cocozza did watch my dog all the time (as far as I could see!)
