Phillippe ,I think you mustn't write this things,you only can think
this.The judge of the SWH's was a man that never give my dog a place ,so
I don't go to that man,a good shower nows his judges.

It is normal what you wrote: judges have their own preferences. Slovakian
judges have a preference for slovakian type of wolfdog and czech judges for
the czech type. You can see this if you look at the show results from the
main dog shows in Czech Republic and Slovakia (But don't look at the owners
of the dogs. Look at pedigrees... ). The main differences between both types
can be seen in the head of a CzW. Dogs from different countries have also
specific faults - if you see a dog then at first sight you will know their
country of origin.

But there is something what the judges can not break: the rules called breed
standard. You can have your own opinion how the best wolfdog should look
like. But you can not create you own type of breed which differs from the
standard. For example you can not have your own type of body of a
Czechoslovakian Wolfdogs - it's exactly described in the standard. If you
prefer something else so you do not prefer a typical wolfdog... The same is
with proportions and measurements.

If you know a judge whose decisions are wrong (not only debatable!) then it
is not a good idea to be quiet. If he will prefer the whole time the
non-typical wolfdogs then breeders will breed only non-typical wolfdogs
because only such dogs have a chance to win.... And this is not good for the
breed...
A good, experienced judge will understand this - I promise!
