Social Media and Dog Shows
Lately, everyday, there are negative posts re: judges and exhibitors and the problems in the hobby. To this end, I am leaving all the discussion groups. Absolute waste of my existence to even read half of it.

Heads Above Water…Just Bobbin’ Along
The economy is difficult in just about every city and state in this country. Monies are short, show entries are down for some clubs, and costs of putting together a show and paying for judges’ expenses are rising. I do not mean that judges’ fees are rising. I have NOT heard of a judge increasing the fee for judging under any circumstances! Most judges are very aware of how much it costs to put together a show and do not want to “bite the hand that (sometimes) feeds them” by pricing themselves out of judging assignments. If anything, many judges do not list all the expenses that are incurred in getting to and from a show including meals and incidentals. I hear judges discussing some of the expenses they “eat” in order to save the club money.
