Has anyone noticed that the suspense seems to have gone a bit from Crufts? It seems that a lot of people were expecting the Tiebtan to win and this seemed in part based on the fact it had umpteen challenge certificates. I know that when it comes to the final 7 for best in Show, the judge is comparing each dog against its own breed standard. So just say six of those dogs had ten CCs each and the seventh had 100 CCs, that must mean that the 7th dog had, on 100 separate occasions, come very close to the standard, a record that was ten times better than the others in the line up. Surely a Best in Show judge is going to be influenced by statistics like that? Or does he/she not consider a dogs past performance when judging? |
