There’s been a big change here at Masajack. Over the summer we have relocated the whole pack, 3 humans, 4 dogs and a cat, from Kent to Shropshire. It’s been a mission but we are in and settling nicely.

This is Carrot and her small person surveying their new territory on our walk today.

This is where the I have on each of the dogs has been invaluable. Letting the dogs off lead in a new place has been much less stressful knowing that I can see their location on my phone if they decide to wander.

Boston Champ Show today for Spud and Pea.

3rd in his breed class for Spud and 2nd in Rare Breeds.

3rd in Rare Breeds for Pea which qualifies her for Crufts 😁.

Unfortunately the camera decided to stop saving photos after Spud’s first class so just the one photo today 🤨.

Spud, Sprout and Pea are all going to Crufts 2022 in March 😁😁.

Fab day at Horley & District Open Show today. No Sprout as she is in season.

Spud brought home a fabulous BOB handled by Chris Louks and Group 2 with me. Pea took second in her puppy class.

Bournemouth Championship Show today. Spud and Pea seemed to find the ground rather smelly today so keeping their noses off the ground was a bit of challenge! A 1st for Sprout, 3rd for Spud and VHC (5th) for Pea.

Bath Championship Show today.

Spud stole the show again today winning Post Graduate Dog

Pea had a little wobble today. Stood lovely but we were in the middle of a downpour and she was point blank refusing to walk in the direction of the waterfall coming down off the roof of the marquee 😂. Can’t say I blame her to be honest! Another Reserve (4th) for her.

Sprout did a fab job as usual to take 2nd in Post Graduate Bitch.

East of England Champ Show today and a super day it was all under judge Jeff Luscott.

Spud started off with a cracking win in Post Graduate Dog 🤩🤩🤩

Pea did a fab job in a big Puppy Bitch class to take VHC (5th). Some work needed on the walking though 😂😁

Sprout topped a great day off with a brilliant second place in Post Graduate Bitch - another big class of good dogs ⭐️⭐️

Two dogs now qualified for 2022. Just Pea to go 💪🏻

Lovely day at Ashford, Faversham and District Limit Show today.

Pea went fabulously, stood like a star and flew the flag for the broken coats to get a 2nd place out of 5.

Spud came 3rd and Sprout went 1st and Reserve Best Terrier.

So nice to get back to the smaller local shows as well as the champ shows.

The Psychological Pressures of Judging
by Frank Kane
(originally published by Dog World 04/04/2014)
Applause, applause! Another psychological pressure. It makes for a very sporting atmosphere and a happy experience when winners are applauded. In some breeds it is a matter of course and every class winner is applauded throughout the judging. In other breeds there is silence.
Be aware of the rather forced and tumultuous applause which greets the end of some classes. A very popular winner it might seem... or is it a very popular defeat of the consistent winner?
Applause can be very reassuring for a judge but sometimes misleading and often calculated to seduce the judge. It is important that the judge turns a deaf ear to this – he is judging to please himself, not to please the ringside.
In the US the whooping and hollering at the big shows, especially during the specials class (best of breed) judging has often been written about as a testament to the love the fans have for great dogs – and I’m sure that is often true. But look carefully at the ringside in some breed judging and it can be seen that handlers have placed their team of assistants and friends judiciously around the ring to cheer on their dog.
Unfortunately this has caught on over here when the group glitterati have their rent-a-crowd ringside to cheer on their dog. That is artificial applause, calculated to seduce the judge seeking security and popularity.
The aspiring judge must be aware of the strength of character needed in the competitive environment of the show ring, especially when there is bad sportsmanship and gamesmanship from some individuals – often well known for their behaviour – who try to intimidate judges.
The long, hypnotising stare practised by some exhibitors as the judge walks down the line trying to pressurise a judge is easily avoided by looking only at the dog. Any attempt by an unhappy exhibitor to be confrontational in the ring should be nipped smartly in the bud.
Bad losers
Bad losers are as they are because they have been allowed to get away with tantrums and sulks for too long. Stand firm and don’t be tempted to put up their dog as an easy way out. Stand firm and ignore their looks of disbelief, raised eyebrows and shakes of the head – all theatrics to psyche out the judge and make him feel as if he doesn’t know what he is doing. Be aware of their psychology and stand firm!
If advertising is calculated to influence judges to buy into a dog’s success, then there is a another method of influencing opinions of dogs but in a very negative way. Unfortunately there has been a growth in another agenda used by some exhibitors to damn the chances of rival dogs by criticism and malicious gossip. Sometimes this is done on chat lines and social networking sites, and I am really pleased that the Kennel club has taken a stand on this, but it is often done at shows in the presence of judges about to judge the breed and criticisms are just casually dropped in.
"How easy it is to judge rightly when one sees what evil comes from judging wrongly.”
I find this insidious spiking of dogs, the spreading of rumours, the insinuating of faults and destructive criticism the most disgusting and abhorrent trend in the dog world at the moment – especially as it is a world supposedly populated by people who appreciate dogs. The agenda is to weaken a dog’s chances and, unfortunately, there are some who can be brainwashed in this way against a dog.
What is even more disturbing is that people pass on rumours which are totally unfounded; they become embedded as fact and a dog is damned for something which is untrue. Sadly, there are judges who are influenced by their coterie leader’s opinions, often subtly planted: "You couldn’t like that head, surely?” or "You would want better movement than that, wouldn’t you?”
This spiking of dogs often comes from a person who just happens to be showing a dog in the same breed or from someone who simply wants to try to have influence in a breed and seeks power over others and control a breed.
It is important that other exhibitors and judges are aware of the subtle psychology being used here and stand by their own opinions rather than those being foisted upon them. it might be reassuring to feel ‘in the gang’ but keeping your integrity means standing up for what you think rather than what someone has told you to think.
Ah, integrity, that much used word and that much valued quality. Can we teach it at seminars? not at all – but we could warn future judges of the pressures that might try to undermine it. I feel strongly that we should do more to prepare our judges and harden them up for some of the scenarios I have outlined.
Judge the dogs
I believe we have many excellent specialist judges who, in the true tradition of breeders and stockmen, ignore all the pressures and all agendas and go in and judge the dogs. It is a pleasure to watch.
I was heartened to watch one such judge tackle her breed recently where she had a highly competitive open class with all the top dogs in the breed present. After the BOB judging her travelling companion and fellow exhibitor in the breed went up to her and said: "You poor thing – that open class must have been a nightmare for you.” the response was instantaneous: "no, quite easy really – I just judged the dogs.” Take heart!
An awareness of agendas and pressures is important in preparing to be a judge when there should be only one agenda – to judge the dogs on the day based on an interpretation of the breed standard and shedding all the other agendas such as reputation, ownership, friendship, favours, others' opinions... and so on. shed the psychological baggage and JUDGE THE DOGS!
To wrap it up in a nutshell, take this moral from Elisabeth Gaskell, 19th century author and a keen observer of human nature: "How easy it is to judge rightly when one sees what evil comes from judging wrongly.”

Well it’s been a while but yesterday we finally got back to showing!

Southern Counties gave Spud a VHC (5th), Pea a Reserve (4th) at her very first show, and Sprout a 2nd which qualified her for Crufts 2022.

So nice to see everyone and be back in the ring with my fab little dogs 😁😁.
