New York (APP) – Royal Chaihava, can come in different forms like a great dean, Bloodg and Greeh Hound. Every champion. So a judge is how to decide which dog is the best Westminster Canal Club Competition?
Liability for casual audience, it can be difficult to know what judges face carefully tapping and piercing on the keys made. But the United States requires Encyclopedic Knowledge to choose the winner in the most -storey dog ​​show 201 Different generations And types. And it takes some stable nerves.
“When you are deciding about the Westminster at any level, this is contrary to any other experience to decide,” said Donald Stores. A bloody name whose name is tire. Stores are now president of the Canal Club as Madison Square Garden will return to the show after four years this week.
He said, “You know the world’s most famous field, and the world is watching.” And you have a moment where you are like, ‘My God, what am I going to do?’
The judges present the exams and look at the dogs to find out which one comes closer to the ideal for its breed, as described in a “standard” described the desired features Is Its purpose is to reflect the roots and historical work of the race.
For example, consider a pavement-especially, Fiona, 18-month-old pets of stores, show champions and owed models when he demonstrated the Associated Press journalists how the judges work. (Fiona, a niece 2021 Westminster Winner WasabiNot competing in this year’s show.)
Clinical psychologists and retired suburbs District Superintendent, stores have shown dogs since the age of 10 and did justice to them for decades. He looks for “presence of virtue, vs. mistakes” and focuses on that “the dog that rang the newborn for me when I went from the nose to the tail.”
While demonstrating with Fiona, the stores began checking the small dog’s black, flat, round eyes on a small dog’s black, flat face. He rests his head on the top and bottom of his head to check if it is properly “envelope size.”
He said, “The head is a special sign of this generation,” he landed from the dogs of the ancient Chinese palace who looked like a lion as a lion as a self -esteem.
Then he felt the shape of Fiona’s offer, the depth of his chest, the length of his neck, the width of his ribs and how much topics from his body to his back to the rear. – Standards demand to be pear -shaped, compact and low sling.
Since Fiona was standing calmly on a table, it was time to check the structure of its back shape, its large -scale coat and its tail. He said that the end of the inspection on the hand-on should be quite “heavy”, or its shaped quite should be felt substantially.
The next step, okay, are steps. Judges see every dog ​​walking with his handler. Pax is known for its slow, rolling gate, which stores describes both the heavy seat rugby player’s fast and swimming gold wavy grace.
Stores said the judges also paid attention to the dog’s mood-Funa offered comfortable, tail-powered confidence-and whether its overall condition indicates proper exercise, nutrition, care and grooming.
The Dog Show begins with a top dog raising judges from every generation. Each of them competes against others in their “group”, such as hounds or, packages, for toy dogs. After that, seven group winners were competed for the best in the show.
The Westminster arranged the best in the show by all the previous proceedings. This person is expected to know the standards of each generation, but he is allowed to ask which one (though not a particular dog) is going to the final color. Stores said he did not choose the inquiry because he wants a completely empty slate.
“As a judge in the Best in Westminster, you can’t really be wrong because you know that a matter can be made for one of the seven of them,” he said.
So what makes the winner?
Stores said, “A great dog is a great night.” “There is something that brings the dog on the night that made them a mark with other great dogs in the ranks.”
