I gather the problem of not breeding to the standard, and not judging to the standard, has some fanciers of at least one breed concerned enough that they have written a document to remind people what the actual standard is for that breed. I think it is a fantastic document, and would love to see one for the breed I'm working on.
The title of the document is "Interpreting the Dominique Standard in 2015", and it is available as a PDF. I found the document over at facebook in the APA's public page, but I can't "share" a direct link here, so you'll have to hunt through the page to find it. If you do a search for "Dominique" at that page you should get it ...

This is a good way to get decent judging of breeds some judges don't see often. Educating the exhibitors and judges is a very good idea.
