Will give the best dog the win, even with an owner handler

tends to go with familiar faces (Ie: professional handlers with a lot of entries) rather than putting up better dogs. It's a shame so many judges are like that these days.

3rd time my special was shown to Mr. Hale, 1st time by a national known PH, awarded BISS, 2nd time another PH and was awarded BOB. 3rd time AOH (me) he was awarded BOB over ranked specials.Mr. Hale is consistent at least when it comes to my special who's typey, fluid movement.

Knows breed type and movement, chooses instead to go with advertising.

Very, very poor judge. Needs to either go back and learn the standard or quit judging our breed. DNS

WOW! Horrific judging in OR today!! Dumped 4 specials & gave BOB to a very mediocre class dog who was misbehaving & vocal in the ring. A quote from a fellow ring-side observer, "Some of the worst judging I have ever seen!" This judge apparently has a very different idea of the Vizsla standard then the vast majority of judges. Will NEVER to to Tom Hale again!!!

This judge did not consider the puppies for points at all. He actually turned his back on both the male and female 6-9 puppies in winners. The male puppy had gone RWD to a 5 point major earlier in the circuit. The puppies deserve to be looked at as much as the adults, after all without the puppies, the majors wouldn't be built!

Pleasant,gave careful exam for structure,concerned about attitude of dog. Shared suggestions after BOB which were great and brought good results in following shows! Will show to him again!
