Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Fun exercise- You Be The Judge! 555018_10151521492111590_2124758774_n

I found this on a judging web site, so now it's your turn! You be the judge. Place this class of five very different Siberian Husky Males in order of merit based, on 12 physical requirements discernible in these five profile drawings and why you would place award determined placement; you should be aware that the breed functions as a medium-sized working sled dog, is quick and light on its feet, and free and graceful in action. The Siberian's proportions should reflect a basic balance of power, speed and endurance, never appearing so heavy or coarse as to suggest a freighting animal, nor so light as to suggest a sprint racing animal.

TWELVE REQUIREMENTS
To assess this particular class you should be aware:
1. That the stop (the step-down from skull to muzzle) is well defined.
2. That the distance from tip of nose to the stop is equal to the distance from stop to occiput.
3. That the neck is medium length and arched.
4. That the body is slightly longer than the height.
5. That the topline is level.
6. That tuck up is slight.
7. That the croup slopes but never so steeply as to restrict the rearward thrust of the hind legs.
8. That the tail sets on just below the level of the topline.
9. That the foreleg (the elbow level with brisket) is longer than the body is deep (distance greater from elbow to ground than from elbow to withers).
10. That the hindquarters be well bent at stifle and the hock joint be well defined.
11. That the feet be oval in shape, medium in size, not large and clumsy.
12. That all colors and markings are allowed from black to pure white. Variety of markings include many striking head and body patterns not found in other breeds.

No one said judging was easy Smile

Hmmm... interesting and very hard indeed.

1. B
2. C
3. A
4. E
5. D

Edit: I chose B is #1 because he has a nice headset and well defined stop. He has longer legs, but they are in proportion with his body.

Sorry should have also added the 'why you would choose this dog' for whatever placement you'd give as well Smile

This is the first time I ever attempted this.... ha ha!

1.A
2.B
3.E
4.C
5.D

I had a hard time picking A or B to be on the top. I ended up picking A because I think that dog's tail starts at the appropriate place. C's stop isn't well enough defined, and D's back isn't level, and E's legs seem a bit off.
