farlap 19 Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 when there's £££££ involved then corruption is probably very likely really.....what £££ would that be then??? even if you win Best in Show the money is barely enough to cover the entry fee, the parking and the fuel getting there!!

6pack 60 Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Think a wire haired Vizla is topped to win - dont know about being fixed, but he has been winning shows across the world!! well for a start its not a WHV its a normal smooth one....and 2nd....hes not entered as both his handlers are also judging. Thats good to know Means we still stand a chance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very true, I have been for at least 20 years with a few years off, and the money for winning is peanuts. But now you have started it fairlap, people will all say the moneys in puppys....yawn Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest greengrass123 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Anybody see that standard poodle last night crufts bbc2 .What the hell was that about , bad hair day or what. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dawn B 212 Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yes I agree the money is rubbish. Re the judging. There is little doubt some of it is very wrong, but as Farlap says, its a minority rather than the majority. My friends Shib Inu won the group yesterday, never in a million years would she of dreamt of that, she was thoroughly delighted, but I dont think the American Pot Noodles owner was!!!! Well done on your placings with your IG's Little Lurchers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just wanted to see it thats all Long, long before I knew what a game fair or a 'lurcher & terrier show' was (as a kid, 30+ years ago ). I'd always wanted to see it, it was all I knew back then. So, I'll give it a look..... and keep you posted P.S. Can't be all bad......they invited 'ol Ted Walsh there once Quote Link to post Share on other sites
