WHYS answered:

1. Why I can't change a boarding kennel for my dog?
You cannot change the boarding if your dog has been boarded at a kennel that has been closed down regardless of the kennel you're trying to move it to.

The only way to fix this bug is if an ungraded member buys your dog and then uses option to board all their dogs in their kennel and then sell it back to you. THEN you'll be able to change the boarding place.
Hopefully this bug will not appear again in 3 months or so as Jade closed all such kennels and only alive dogs who had suck "luck" to be in one are prone to this.

2. Why I can't change a handler for a dog?
It happens if you hire handler too old for showing (over 45) that hasn't meen removed by default or retired. This bug is fixed if you assign your own handler to your dog and then save changes.

3. Why I cannot see a dog on the drop down menu of a show?
Your dog is either wrong age (too young or wrong age group) or wrong show group.
For age groups see above, show group says on dogs page liek this: Class Points: 176C Non-Sporting

4. Why did my dog get so little points?
Judges give points for looks and deduct faults. They also deduct the wrong show class for 10 points each. If your dog is class E and he enters a TD class, he is going to get -50points penalty by default.

5. Why on my dogs page doesn't say he won a place?
Because he was disqualified from a show. DQ doesn't appear on total show count.

6. Why the judge says "..." for my dog when it is not true?
Judges sayings are preset and somewhat random generated. It doesn't acctually "see" a dog before putting a comment for it.

7. Why is a judges favourite somebody who doesn't even own a dog?
Because most shows/show champs were judged by that judge from that owner. If from 100 judged shows, 25% where from person A, 10% from person B, and others from rest, then person A will be the favourite for as long as somebody else doesn't beat the record.

8. Why I got a message I am judges favourite and then I don't see a judges name?
When a judge is too old for judging he is automatically removed from the list right after shows run and every person who entered a dog in a show gets the same message.

9. Why it says a dog doesn't have his shots when I gave him all shots at the vet?
Parvo shot is missing. It is given separately and only once in a dogs life. Later application is not neccesery.

Rest:

1. I have a few 1y10m dogs entered in the puppy class. Since they age before the show ends, will they be disqualified for being too old?
No. They were correct age when they entered the show therefore they will be judged. Same happened if the dog dies while entered in a show. He will still be judged eventhough he is not alive anymore.
