I judged yesterday (Saturday) in Olean, NY. I had a really good time (despite being sick and very hoarse.)

Amanda -- There were a slew of Dwarf Hotots at the show (and I got to judge them).

I also judged all the Angoras (English, French, Giant and Satin), Californians, Dutch, Enlgish Lop, Havanas andPolish.

I judged the open Best In Show and chose a stunning black French Angora and a New Zealand White for Reserve In Show.

Well today, it was guess who! LOL! Just 2 exhibitors, Christina and me.John was supposed to show up but didn't LOL! Christina waswanting to get his phone number and grumble at him while we were at theshow! However, there were LOADS of request for Dwarf Hototsbut neither of us had any to sell. :?
The judge we had today was getting a laugh out of the Dwarf Hotots! Iwrote for Britanna Petites right after DH's. It's sad whentheBP's are a bit calmer then the DH's! LOL! Theyso need to make it a rule concerningthe show table. DwarfHotots sooo don't belong on a table with open holes. Christina and Ijust put the SR Bucks anywhere on the table and ended up paying for it!Those bucks were EVERYWHERE! With those things 4 hands just doesn't cutit! The does were all grouchy, so it was an intresting day with themLOL!

Looks like you had quite a variety of breeds to judge yesterday.I love it when I see ya judge DH's. So manyjudges spend so much time looking at the eyebands and forget about typeor pose them like NDs or Rex.:?

I bet it makes your day to judge Best in Show and Reserve in Showbecause you make another person's day. I like hanging around just tosee Best 4 class, Best 6 Class and Best in Show just so I can see thehappy smiles and every so often 'squeals'

All this rabbit talk reminds me that I have to go 'please' of some does and stick in nestboxes.

It is very exciting It was her 1st BIS and my first timechoosing an angora for a top award. (They didn't have 4 or 6 -- justBIS and Reserve).

I got a call from the Angora club today about doing a specialty in NewYork -- apparently they were satisfied with my Angora judging yesterday(despite the fact I was losing my voice).

I was waiting to hear your results before I said anything about my results.
I also got a Best of Breed today with a homegrown Dwarf Hotot. Iactually pulled out my 'second string' of does today since my regularshow does have nesboxes in with them now.

I was thrilled that they called -- the bad news is that I'm booked theweekend of their show for the next 2 years, so there's no chance of megetting to judge their Angora specialty until 2008. I wasalso one of the judges nominated to do Angora ARBA nationals, but Iturned down the nomination.
