Made comments about how this is a moving breed and then didn't even watch sidegait. Put up dogs without reach/drive, who couldn't get out of their own way much less do the job the breed was bred for. Inconsiderate of dogs on a hot sunny day and placed those who'd already been examined out on the full sunshine when a shaded covered area was available in the ring.

Showed to her at the Dallas shows on 7/6/18. Acted like she was really looking at movement...then put up the worse moving dogs. Really needs to read up on the standard. My DNS list is short and she is now on it.

Nice lady but doesn't have a clue about structure.

great judge if you are one of her PNW buddies, rewards the truly mediocre and overlooks the outstanding exhibits, both PH and OH. If she rewards your dog once, she'll be loyal no matter the condition or the day. Update 2021- while she may get her picks correct, for someone that promotes herself as a mentor for OH and newbies, she was extremely rude to several new exhibitors at a recent show. Snarky comments, vague instructions, and just general grumpiness is not what we need to grow the sport. As I said, her placements were appropriate, but I will discourage those new to the ring from entering under her.

I was told this judge would put up limping dogs, and by golly she certainly didn't excuse them. She did manage to find WD from the 2 previous judges of this show weekend. She acts like she is looking at movement, but then puts up dogs that are the worst movers. Will not get another entry from me

One of the worst judges I've ever shown to. Will not even look at color, and likes very refined no bone, no substance types. Acts like she's looking at movement but picks the worst movers every time. DNS

She was consistent in her placements. BOB and BOS/WB/BOW was were closely related. I will show to her again.

Very pleasant to show to and has nice gentle hands with the dogs. Overall made good selections of sound moving dogs, and seemed to be judging the dogs and not the other end of the leash.

LOVES fluffy pom puppies. Pretty much ignored all adults including the specials. Put a BBE puppy dog breed over 2 specials, and a 6-9 puppy bitch WB. RWs were also puppies. The puppy dog had a littermate in BBE that was extremely similar but she seemed reluctant to award the same person both WD and WB. She did give the sister RWB. Very pleasant, and would not hesitate to show her a pretty baby pom. Might save my money on an adult. The puppies she picked were pretty and nice examples of the breed, but not sure if she would recognize a nice mature adult or not, if there was a pretty baby to choose from.

I showed to this judge and watched this judge both days. She is very gentle and methodical in her exam and choices. She has a calm strength that gives her a presence with the dogs and the handlers. Will show to her any time.

Seems to be looking at heads. Everything she picked was a big headed dog.
