I want ask how big is difference between czech ans slovak measure? and when is next bonitation in belgium with same judge because many people write bad thing on cutt - father of my dog of my friend. And i see it is possible to change if breeder come and make new bonitation. But what i not understand are bad words Mirka write about other dogs but same time make bonitation and give P3 for too small dog

Hi,

I can only give an answer to your first question.
About Ice-Wolf: I know the dog was seriously ill when he was still young and he was always very small and skinny. Since one year, his owner has a second dog and Ice had a break for training. His owner also changed the dog's food and he got really fat. When he started to train him again, the dog didn't loose all the extra weight and he looked bigger and more masculine. His owner wanted to bonitate him again, because the dog really changed a lot. I saw it myself: the dog even looked bigger.
The judge measured him and he appeared to be 65cm... Of course I wasn't standing beside it to check the measurement, but I don't think the judge made him bigger or smaller
Another possibility could be that the dog didn't change, but his exact size is let's say 64,2cm. On the first measurement the dog was maybe not so self-confident and he got measured 63,5. The second measument the dog was maybe standing straight on his legs and full of confidence, a bit older and bigger and measured 64,9...

I understand your point about Cutt... He's a nice male with very nice offsprings and it's a pity he has a P14 code because of his height
