In the last month I visited two bonitation. There were two cases of dogs with wrong indexes Xv=50.
Czech dog with such index was judged by a Czech judge and get PERFECT bonitation code P1 (note "Excellent"). The second dog was judged by Slovakian judge and get P5 (note "good"). According the "standard" dog with such index can NEVER get excellent note.
But it is common case - in Czech Republic bad or very bad indexes have no influence on the bonitation code so in such case the Czech bonitation codes are much better than the Slovakian and MUCH better as they can be. The same is with open lips and atypical heads. It has no influence on the bonitation codes and you can see dogs with EXTREMELY heavy heads with no typical expression for this breed which are "rewarded" with the highest possible note...
(of course not all Czech bonitation codes are wrong and not all Czech dogs are atypical but there is
visible difference in the bonitation codes). So the only solution is only to ask other (friends or) breeders for help or visit the bonitation and see which dog is REALLY perfect...
