If you have a good comprehensive knowledge of the judges for your breed(s) and group,
we encourage you to join this distinguished panel if you are qualified.
Conformation: 10-10-10
  • At least ten years experience showing dogs you bred.
  • Handling at least ten class dogs to their championship.
  • At least ten group placements with you as handler.
  • Attending around 50 shows per year for the last few years.
    (exceptions for people with handling limitations)
    • Performance
    For performance events and judges, it's hard to have set rules. So if you feel you have extensive experience in a particular performance arena (obedience, agility, rally, etc.), send us an email with your basic qualifications, and we'll consider you - with a predisposition to be favorable.

    Note: The above are general guidelines. We will make exceptions when it seems appropriate (minor, not major). For example, if your breed is one that rarely places in group. So if you consider yourself very knowledgable about judges yet technically not qualified by these criteria, please send an email explaining your situation. If you prefer to not handle yourself, you may still be considered if you go to a lot of shows and observe the judging closely.

    To join the panel, send us an email describing your qualifications, including a short narrative to be displayed on this page.
    Judge Experts receive free access to the Advanced Features for actively participating.

    Why join?
    Because the quality of judging at dog shows is important. This is your opportunity to have an effect on judges and judging, to improve our sport, to let judges know that someone with experience and integrity is paying attention and reporting to the fancy at large. If you are not willing to act with the intention of having an effect, do you really have the right to complain about judging?

    It is our intention to be completely responsible, to proceed with integrity, with nothing except the interest of show dogs and dog showing in mind.
    We invite people planning shows to review the public evaluations and recommendations of this expert panel in hiring judges.

    This panel is open to Professional Handlers.
    It is also open to judges, if they are still actively exhibiting on a regular basis.
