Roché went Best of Breed Friday under Judge Raymond Filburn.  

Roché was totally Dumped under Judge Rita Holloway.

Does Rita Holloway really know what she wants or does she just say what you think she wants to hear then forgets how she contradicts herself?  In February Desi lost to PJ.  In New Jersey, on Dave's way out of the ring, Mrs. Holloway stopped Dave and told her that Desi really wasn't her type, she liked a shorter backed, cobbier type dog.  Not that I would call either one 'cobby.'  OK, we can live with that.  Note to self:  Bring Roché out to see her, he is very similar to PJ.  She turns up on a panel, OK, let's see how this will go, bringing her a dog that is 'her type.'  Today Mrs. Holloway 'really prefers a bigger, longer backed dog' (and one with a bad topline and cow hocks to boot!).  It's not like Dave is unrecgonizable.  If you are going to make things up, at least remember who you said what to, or don't say anything at all.  Or just say "Dave, I don't like you, and no matter what you show me, you will lose, so don't bother entering under me ever again.  You could bring me the dog I gave BIS to yesterday, and it just wouldn't matter." I would appreciate the honesty.
