Can I also reiterate that not every player is from the USA so can we have and international theme too please ?

I have very much tried to keep this in mind. Dog shows do vary as to how they're managed, prizes awarded, etc. the trick is to give it an int'l feel without losing what us AKC people are 'used' to.

I'm always open to suggestion.

are you more familiar with FCI? I'm not very familiar with the inner workings. What are the placements like?[/quote


Very much like the UK class placing for age groups and awards won then BOB BOS and BP awarded.
Then BOB goes to the group

Have you ever watched Westminster, or the National Dog Show, for here in the US? I was recently introduced to the IABCA here in the US, where dogs are given critiques in ring, so feedback from the judge, and a dog can work towards its championship even if its the only one in the ring.

I was told about it because I think the breed I raise in real life is #180 in popularity of the 200 that the AKC registers so finding a major show revolves around Nationals.

I think from my understanding UK judging is more similar to the IABCA than AKC.
