While we are always appreciative of our wins, this is another example of a judge awarding baby puppy coat over more deserving adults. There is another judge who has awarded Havanese puppies Best of Breed over specials over 96% of the time. Yes, I did the math. She never uses them in group. We no longer enter specials or adults under her. The standard calls for 'soft & silky' coat NOT the softest coat in the ring. As I have always said, it's like comparing a 5 year old child's hair to a supermodel's beautiful long silky hair. Both may be soft & silky, but that supermodel's hair is never going to feel like that 5 year old, and it shouldn't, but that doesn't make it any less beautiful. If a judge has the ability to judge different breed 'against' each other in a group, why can't they understand that adults are different than puppies?
