This list, and several others, are provided through the generosity and hard work of Mike Richman, listproc manager. The list is hosted by OBED-JUDGES list administrator, Richard Strong.

    The purpose of OBED-JUDGES is to encourage the exchange of ideas related to the judging of obedience trials through free and open communication among peers. This list is meant to be a "think tank" for those with creative and thoughtful ideas. This list is meant to be educational in a way that may help us all better understand the challenges of judging today's obedience entries.

    This list is not for those who have only match judging experience. Registry officials (i.e. those who serve in any way in an administrative capacity for a dog registry) will not be granted membership to the list. Tracking judges or judges of any other performance events will not be accepted unless they also meet the above requirements for obedience trial judges.

    The archive capability of OBED-JUDGES has been disabled to encourage more open discussion.
