Anyone
Has anyone heard when critiques from the Potomac judges will be posted?
It's the SOS every year. This reply should come from a lrcp board member. They would know. It rarely if ever happens. The majority of them do read this posting board and post for certain thing such

Someone asks like you did and not a soul from the club answers. Give us an idea if & when we might see the critiques please the lrcp board members. Thanks in advance for a possible change in a simple reply to this very simple inquiry from the attendees & non-attendees of a very expensive week of the largest Lab show yearly.

Re: Potomac critiques

No longer on the board, but I know last year the Judges took a while to send in their critiques.

Maybe an email to one of the board members would elicit a faster response?

Thank you for posting this comment!!

If someone wants info that only the board can answer than for goodness sake email a board member - that seems like common sense to me!!

Why must people complain that the board members never reply here? Where is the rule that they must do that? Every once in a while this comes up and it is frustrating to me (who is not a board member) that people come on here and complain that the board doesn't respond here, when they have no obligation to do so.

Ok, off my soapbox for now.

PS - this is not directed at the OP who posted a valid question.

Re: Potomac critiques

There were a lot of dogs that got critiqued at Potomac. Judges had been away from home for at least a week. They will have to edit their notes, take care of their own dogs, go on to other assignments, unpack, get food in the house once again, pay attention to their own families and dozens of other everyday things to catch up. It wouldn't be unreasonable to wait a month or two before seeing their comments in print. You know what your dog looks like, you know what's right and wrong. Their opinion is icing on the cake. There may be things to criticize the Club for but this is not one of them. Why would they hold back critiques on purpose?
