If out of coat in the summer dont bother, looks for the sculpted silhouette of the breed of a familiar entry. Very open about being friends with PH in the ring before making placements. |

She is very consistent, rewarding entries of same type and movement. Willing to distribute points for cross-overs and reward specials if at all possible. |

Good judge. Judges the dogs and how they perform that day. Would show to again. |

Very Nice judge. Soft hands, patient with younger dogs/puppy’s, goes over the dog well.
Looks for good structured and nice moving dog.
Will help people who are inexperienced and offers advice when you ask.
Will definitely show under again |

Watched her judge the same breed twice over the space of a year in different states with very large entries. She was very consistent, even rewarding an entry related to her selections a year earlier which she would have had no way of knowing, given different handlers. Knows type but also very focused on movement. Really wants to distribute points for cross-overs and reward specials if at all possible. Very impressed. We had no folks from Texas or professional handlers, and my experience was totally different from those commenting. |

There were no Texas people in the ring, so she basically had to judge dogs. She did a fairly decent job of her selections in the classes, and for BOB, obviously put up a top special. |

I am appalled that she takes to social media for pats on the back from her buddies when anyone criticizes her judging - maybe there would not be so much to criticize if she wasn't showing to the same buddies she is judging! |

Absolutely the most unethical judge - she is a member of the Texas back scratchers, hires judges,shows to those judges, and judges their dogs - not at the same shows, tho, obviously, but ruins many shows for the rest of us! |

Kind in the ring and gives good instructions. Sadly she puts up her friends/faces. Should go back and read the Code of exhibiting and judging. |

She is always pleasant and good with the dogs. She has gentle hands and gives good instructions. When she started out, she was a very good judge. But now it's all about faces and friends... especially if they are also judges. She can find a good dog as long as the right person is holding the lead. Sad |

(Updated to 2024) Saw that she gave a group placement to an unbalanced dog that was bred by a fellow judge (from the Midwest) who makes it well known that it is her dog and is shown by a Texas handler. (Updated to 2022) Showed to her again. All of the dogs in the BOB ring were mine or my breeding and all were nice (she did comment on that fact). She consulted the standard and moved the dogs quite a bit. But when it came to picking BOB she was not able to recognize the dog that was clearly the best example of the breed - both in movement and outline. She did select the dog with the highest profile handler. And again, she did not chose as BOB and BOS the 2 dogs that were the most alike.
(2018) Immediately after the breed judging took my dog and bitch who are littermates over to the judge at the photographer's area. She noted to the photographer that her BOS (the bitch) was there. We asked her what it was she did not like about our male who is a top dog in the breed and had been passed over completely. He is the male version of our female. Her answer was "I don't remember." She said that she liked all the Breed dogs and repeated again "I don't remember." I would think that a judge should be prepared to give some feedback on her judging criteria. |

Gave all the dogs a good table exam and evaluated each all the way around the ring. That left us feeling that she knew what she was looking for and awarded her placements accordingly. She's FAIR. Happy smile and gentle hands are appreciated by the young dogs too. |

It's all about friends....unless you are on her list, do not show. Absolutely unbelievable and unacceptable... Two on my DNS list and she is #1 |

seemed to be on the right track until recently when she began rewarding friends with less than stellar entries |

Very nice lady. Very good with dogs and put up what she liked for BOB. Agreed with her choices. Helpful with some inexperienced people in the ring and kept a smile. |

Very fair judge. Does not look at faces and gives everyone a very fair shake. I didn't win under her but, know that she did what she feels best. I would HIGHLY recommend this judge. |
