  • I have watched him judging dozens of times, I just wondered whether he had done a breed show before.

    I must admit he does always look like he would love to be somewhere else !!!! but he has never judged any of mine so I can't comment on his actual going over of the dogs. I know he has friends in very high places lol !!!

    Well let's see how he copes with having to judge Basenjis all day shall we, be interesting to see his judging technique lol !!!! and what he puts up of course !!!!! Good Luck to you all xx


  • Im not holding out much hope for our results. A second is about the best im hoping for ;) But, i always love the club shows, such a friendly atmosphere and a lovely lunch - perfect!! Much better than the lab or pug club shows!


  • Just curious what judge are you talking about ? :)


  • Yeah, me too :)


  • The judge is Mark Cocozza, affix Freecloud - I'm not sure if he judges outside the UK but he does have an interests in some imported dogs from other countries.

    His reply to Benkura is actually quite typical - it usually depends on which of his pals are around!!!


  • I'm glad i didn't waste my entry on him by all accounts. Good luck to everyone else though, i hope it goes well for you despite the reputation of the judge.

    I was VERY pleased with how he judged. Was incredibly polite and definately gave everyone plenty of time and attention, even waiting while idiot here sorted out a number and ran into the class late :o It was a rough day :rolleyes:

    Was nice to catch up with everyone again :D


  • Glad you all had a good time and congratulations to those who got results.


  • Congrats to all. Glad it turned out to be a good day.


  • Maya was looking better than i have seen her for months today jess - back to her previous form - i thought you were in with a shout.
    we won best puppy dog, best brace, and best team - that was an experience!!!!

    Well done anyway Scott good day for you:D


  • Well done to you all! I'm relieved that Mark 'behaved' himself and that you all enjoyed the show!


  • Well done guys on all your results today.

    I had a lovely day putting my feet up and watching you all do the hard work lol !!! ( makes a change ). Thought the judge was on his bestest behaviour, or at least the best it gets !!!! looked a little bored at times and kept glancing around the ring to see if he had an audience !!! and I saw him make a dive onto his phone Scott !!!!!

    All in all a very relaxed show, the Dobe people could learn some valuable points lol !!!!!

    I've tried bait and no bait in the ring. I think bait works better for Logan, but not for me. He likes it and responds to it well, but as a new handler it's a pain in the butt. I know what I'm expected to do. Doing it once in the ring is hard. I get caught up in the minute and then forget what I'm supposed to do the next. I once stacked Logan backwards on the table. D'oh! Logan is SUPER food driven and he knows if I have cookies in my pocket. That's all he'll pay attention to. Jumping on the handler is frowned upon. Yes, I know training and time will cure it. Not there yet. Too many hobbies. Showing, breeding, MGBs, stereos, astronomy, motorcycles, family, friends, travel, house, etc. I need more time.

    @cashh - Just curious, did you have your dog excused? Typically it is because of being lame in the ring or not letting the judge to exam the dog?

    I think they were for the newsletter but im not 100% sure, Trish emailed the pictures he took of Maya directly to me so its probably worth giving them a call/email :)
