Even if you can only get partial results, all our readers would be so thankful.<BR/><BR/>On the issue of the CH designation. the instant case was a typo on my part. Unfortunately, the only way to actually proofread the blog is to post the article. So there are often typos in the blog. Fortunately, I have a 1,000 volunteer proofreaders. lol. They usually catch my errors before I can go back over the post and check formatting. <BR/><BR/>However, on the broader issue of should I point out when it's a class dog that's won a BIS or group one. At first glance, one would think that that is a big deal worth a brag. However, because so many of our dogs are imports who have multiple BIS in other countries, some take the designation of class dog as a disparaging remark. Therefore, I have taken to not making reference to the dog as a class dog UNLESS the breeder, owner, or handler has contacted me expressing their pride over the win from the classes.<BR/><BR/>The short and long of it is if the CH is not there it is probably a class dog, but don't assume it's an upset.Billy Wheelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10638169474272913281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-252655140818743030.post-19855835398023482472009-02-02T13:40:00.000-06:002009-02-02T13:40:00.000-06:00Billy, I was wondering, when you do not list CH in...Billy, I was wondering, when you do not list CH in front of a dog's name, are they always class dogs, or do you just copy what is in the results (which doesn't always have all the correct titles listed)? I noticed that the first time you listed the Golden, there is no CH, but later there is, so obviously that was just an error, but was the Whippet a Champion or not? <BR/><BR/>I'm not trying to be overly picky with editing (although you do have German as Berman), I just think it is interesting to note when a class dog won a group. At the beginning of the post I though "Wow, a class Golden won breed!" but then later saw that the dog was indeed a Champion. <BR/><BR/>I know it's a little thing, but I just wondered if you check into whether or not the dog is a Champion when you see a class dog win a group. <BR/><BR/>Megan <BR/><BR/>P.S. - I don't know if you have someone set to get results from the Rocky Mountain Cluster in Denver, but I will be there all 4 days and can try to have quick results!omeganbchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07325205180215242699noreply@blogger.com
