The
judge is always right... right? The judge may look confident on the day but what's the truth
behind that authoritative figure in the centre of the ring? The course may flow on paper but
what happens in the ring may be something else. With up to 450 dogs in a class on a day, are
you confident that you can make the 'right' instant decision each and every time? It's never as
easy as it looks from the sidelines.

I'd
previously been on the Agility Club's 4-day judging course, and my first appointment Starters
Agility at Eastbourne & District DTC went without a hitch. Until the prizegiving that is, when
it transpired that Sue Glover from Newlands WDS - same club as me - had won the class!
Sharing the same surname and club was complete coincidence, and we
weren't related in any way... but I'm sure you can imagine the mutterings from those who didn't
know this! (11/04/04)
