Judge Info - Jeanene Brown

Showdog.com Judge Since Friday, December 23, 2016
Retirement Announced 8/31/2017

Shows a slight bias toward dogs over bitches. Not very political. Low level of breed bias. Has a tendency to like dogs the more often they're seen. Thinks dogs should be compared to how good they are vs the rest of their breed rather than overall quality vs all dogs.
