Hi There! I would like to know if anyone would share the names of any of judges that show an appreciation for the "English Type" Goldens. I know a couple but would like to find more in the Northeast including Ontario and Quebec.
Thank you!
Don't know how much it will help but you are more likely to get a fair shake with any difference in style under a breeder judge.
All around judges seem more likely to reward the most common style in the ring m, flashiness, handlers and/or dogs with advertising.
The big thing if you do have a different style is the dog must be structurally correct and possess strong breed type. I truly believe most breeder judges in general look at these things more than for a particular style.
I look at who is judging in my area and if they are a Golden breeder I look at dogs they have owned or bred on K9Data. This can give you an idea what their personal preferences are.
I hope others might be able to provide some specific names. I would be interested too since I just got a girl from Italy.
Thank you all for your input. Below is the list I came up with. Please know that this list has not been officially confirmed but rather collected through word of mouth and pictures from dog shows. Nor do I know if each individual is an AKC, CKC judge or both. If there is any objection by anyone on the list I will respectfully edit without hesitation.
Happy showing!
