Well, this is it. We have said it for a while now, but this was the final straw. Ms. Lyddon will not be getting any more entries from us. She put up a puppy bitch for breed and a puppy dog for opposite. For Havanese it was coat. But you should have seen what she did in some of the other breeds all weekend. O.M.G. What a joke. For Havanese, yes the standard says soft and silky, but puppy coat is puppy coat, and soft, silky adult adult coat will feel different. Just look at a five-year old child's hair compared to a supermodel with gorgeous soft silkly hair. THEY FEEL DIFFERENT, but BOTH ARE SOFT AND SILKY. I would have gladly (OK, grudgingly) lost to any of the other specials, Paula Frazier's bitch looked great and showed beautifully, as did Ashlee Goseland's. For her to do this to all of the specials is a total slap in the face.
Even though I showed in the morning, I stayed for group. That's when I realized that, while the breed winner had a really cute face, it is very long, and (at least in group, from where I stood) the rise was good but the croup dropped off and the tailset was incorrect. (my opinion).
