Subject: Formal Complaint Concerning the Behavior of an AKC Licensed Judge
at an AKC Event
Attachments: Witness Statements (4); Akita Show Results for Subject Event (1)
Gentlepersons:
Important Background
The substance of this complaint was previously submitted (November 24th) by Joan
Gariazzo, whose assistance we sought in focusing key details of the incidents that
comprise the Core Complaint presented below.
In his email acknowledging receipt of Ms. Gariazzo’s complaint, Tim Thomas
(Director, Dog Show Judges) advised Ms. Gariazzo that traditionally AKC does
not accept complaints from persons that did not witness the alleged actions of a
judge and/or were not present at the event in question. However, we (the breeder
and owner/handler of the subject dog) were present at the event in question and we
were the main participants/witnesses for incidents documented in this complaint.
Since we worked closely with Ms. Gariazzo on preparing her original complaint,
you will notice no significant changes in the items covered:
o We provided all the information under these sections:
 Core Complaint
 Setting and Main Participants
1
 Chronology of Relevant Events
And we vouch for its accuracy.
o Material presented under Observations and Recommendations represents our
observations and recommendations as well as those of Ms. Gariazzo.
o Attachments – witness statements (4) and show results stand on their own.
Therefore, we request that AKC Judging Operations accept our formal complaint
as fully compliant with AKC requirements and tradition. (We are submitting this
complaint as an email submission. However, we are happy to provide an original
hardcopy with signatures upon request.)
______________
Given that unpleasant encounters can quickly become confounded with irrelevant
and distracting here say, we are going to present a concise explanation that is
focused on the core complaint. This account is based on our personal experiences
and the personal experiences of other participants in the subject event. We follow
this account with our personal observations and recommendations for AKC
consideration.
The Core Complaint
The Core Complaint comprises three related sequential incidents that occurred on
November 9, 2014 at an AKC conformation show. Details are provided below
under “Setting and Main Participants” and “Chronology of Relevant Events.”
INCIDENT 1: Inappropriately Lecturing an Exhibitor in the Ring on How
His Dog Failed to Meet the Breed Standard:
Mr. Clay Coady exploited his role as the face and voice of AKC in the ring to
reprimand an Akita exhibitor, Cornelius Campbell, for showing a white-faced-red
(WFR) dog who Mr. Coady asserted was not an American Akita and would not be
rewarded in his ring.
INCIDENT 2: Inappropriately Discussing a Dog no Longer in the Ring with
Exhibitors in a Following Class:
Mr. Coady exploited his role as the face and voice of AKC in the ring to discuss
the failings of Mr. Campbell’s WFR dog with exhibitors in a following class. Mr.
Campbell and his dog were already outside the ring.
2
INCIDENT 3: Pursuing and Verbally Assaulting an Exhibitor Who Was
Outside the Ring
Mr. Coady vastly overreached his role as the voice and face of AKC at an AKC
event by aggressively pursuing and verbally assaulting Mr. Campbell outside the
ring.

Chronology of Relevant Events
Date/Event: November 9, 2014; Mispillion Kennel Club All Breed Conformation
Note: Detailed accounts are provided in the attached witness statements.
o Akita judging began in Ring 3 at approximately 12:30PM with Mr. Clay Coady
as judge. The first class judged was “12 & Under 18 Months Dogs.”
 There were two dogs in this class. One of the dogs (a WFR) was shown by
owner/handler Mr. Cornelius Campbell.
 The second dog was not a WFR.
 There were only two class dogs.
o After awarding Winners Dog to the non-WFR and awarding Reserve Winners
Dog to the WFR, Mr. Coady spent a considerable amount of time lecturing Mr.
Campbell on the fact that “there are two types of Akitas, American and
Japanese” demanding to know if Mr. Campbell understood the difference and
what he was trying to say. Mr. Coady further advised Mr. Campbell that the
WFR was not an American Akita and would not be rewarded in his ring.
o Mr. Campbell thanked Mr. Coady and left the ring without comment.
o Ms. Kathy Coffman, breeder of the WFR, asked Mr. Campbell what Mr. Coady
had been saying to him for such a long time. Upon finding out what Mr. Coady
had said about Japanese and American Akitas, Ms. Coffman immediately
sought the advice of the AKC Representative, Mr. James Mitchell.
o Mr. Mitchell arrived at the ring:
 He spoke separately with Mr. Coady, Mr. Campbell, and Ms. Coffman in
that order.
o During Mr. Mitchell’s discussion with Ms. Coffman, another exhibitor, Ms.
Jane Johnson interrupted to notify Mr. Mitchell that Mr. Coady was discussing
another person’s dog (the subject WFR) with the exhibitors in the ring for a
following class.
o After a second conversation with Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Coady halted his judging
and stormed out of the ring to pursue Mr. Campbell and verbally assault him –
restating his views on the difference between Japanese and American Akitas
and the unacceptability of showing a Japanese Akita in the same ring as
American Akitas.

Our Observations
PERSPECTIVE:
We (Cornelius Campbell, Kathy Coffman, and Jane Johnson) are all wellestablished and highly regarded members of the Akita community. We are all
knowledgeable of AKC event protocols and customs as well as the AKC approved
ACA Akita Breed Standard. While we might be deeply offended by Mr. Coady’s
behavior, none of us will be intimidated by or influenced by such crudely and
inappropriately espoused views.
Nevertheless, seasoned veterans were not the only persons exposed to Mr. Coady’s
tirades on November 9th and it is highly unlikely that this is the only event at which
Mr. Coady has chosen or will choose to exploit his position as the voice and face
of AKC to push his personal agenda.
Conformation showing is both expensive and time consuming. Judges can greatly
affect what “styles” of dogs achieve championships at bearable costs. Mr. Coady
appears to be on a mission to run “Japanese style” Akitas out of the ring – and
therefore out of the breeding pool. Such a practice is simply not consistent with
AKC and ACA rules and goals:
o Every exhibitor at every AKC show is entitled to be treated with polite
competence, objectivity, and fairness. This is also good marketing!
o AKC has a vested interest in keeping the “show engine” running smoothly.
Tolerating behavior on the part of judges who hide publically inappropriate
behavior behind the “AKC Shield of Invulnerability” is not in AKC’s best
interests. Moreover, such behavior is really bad marketing! (Please note
witness statement 4.)
o Showing (to achieve a championship at minimum) is a fundamental feature
of ACA’s Program to promote and protect a viable Akita Breed.
o ACA resolved the “One Akita” issue years ago.
POTENTIAL DISTRACTIONS:
As is frequently the case in emotionally charged incidents, many distracting
allegations are confounded with the core issue. Examples include:
(1) Several participants have reported that Mr. Coady described the WFR to other
exhibitors as an inferior dog for reasons other than his being a WFR:
5
o Such an assessment would be irrelevant because this complaint is not
contesting Mr. Coady’s judging decision.
o Under the circumstances, such an assessment would not be credible. One
statement we are quite confident that Mr. Coady would not have made is: I
dumped the WFR because I’m exploiting the power of my role as AKC
licensed judge to run Akita styles I don’t like out of competitions for
conformation titles.
o Monumental's The Invasion of Caeser record of achievements at a young
age speaks for itself.
(2) It has also been reported that Mr. Coady had at a prior show awarded points to a
WFR:
o This award (if true) is irrelevant because this complaint is not about Mr.
Coady’s judging decisions.
o Moreover under the circumstances, awarding points to a WFR at a different
show is not a credible foil to Mr. Coady’s explicitly stated bias against what
he considers a “Japanese style” in Akitas at the subject show. Such a choice
could be nothing more than CYA (as in award points to a token WFR to
deflect accusations of persistent bias) or there may have been no other
feasible choice. Mr. Coady, after all, does understand the Akita Breed
Standard; he just doesn’t like how broad the standard is.
(3) All too common advice in situations like this includes “suck it up” and “vote
with your feet” – neither of which is generally appropriate or even feasible –
e.g., Mr. Coady was a replacement judge.
OUR INTERESTS:
We are devoted supporters of the Akita breed, ACA, and AKC. And we firmly
believe that the survival of each is dependent on the survival of the other two.
Our Recommendations
While it seems to be common knowledge that filing a complaint about a judge with
AKC has little to no impact, we are hoping that AKC Judging Operations will take
this complaint seriously.
Everything changes/evolves over time – biological organisms, social organizations,
even mountains rise up and wear down ;-) . While AKC provided a highly
successful business model in the early days of the Dog Fancy in the United States,
the culture of the consumer base for AKC offerings has changed.
6
AKC has adapted in many very positive ways. Yet, we feel, that there is much left
to do in making the show venue more welcoming and attractive to newcomers to
the Dog Fancy. Look around at any show – this is an aging population. We need
youth and enthusiasm! And that consumer base, which matters most to the future
of AKC, is surely going to be turned off by Mr. Coady’s brand of bullying and
grandstanding.
Nearly everyone, we believe, likes and seeks out venues with well-defined and
appropriately enforced rules. There must be “order in the court” for any complex
undertaking to work smoothly. This complaint explicitly confirms the importance
of respect for judges’ discretion and decisions when applying AKC approved breed
standards.
However, we also believe that it is vitally important for the success of AKC in
today’s culture to portray an image of openness, objectivity, and fairness. When a
rogue judge blatantly ignores an AKC Breed Standard and flagrantly attempts to
intimidate exhibitors from showing a style of dog that he doesn’t like, AKC really
does need to reassert control.
We offer AKC Judging Operations these specific recommendations for moving
forward with resolving concerns raised in this complaint:
o Have an in depth conversation with Mr. Coady regarding the concerns
addressed in this complaint;
o Require Mr. Coady to take refresher training on the AKC rules for judges;
o Indefinitely suspend Mr. Coady’s AKC approval to judge Akitas;
o Investigate whether or not Mr. Coady applies intimidation tactics when
judging other breeds; proceed as indicated;
o Investigate whether or not intimidation tactics are a systemic problem within
the AKC judges community;
o If indicated, beef up AKC training for judges to explicitly address issues of
this nature.

Witness Statement from Cornelius Campbell
(Owner/Exhibitor of Dog Central to This Complaint)
To: Judging Operations Department of the AKC
Subject: Judge Clay Coady’s Conduct at the Mispillion KC All Breed Show on
November 9, 2014
I would like to start by saying that I have been showing and breeding Akitas for
almost thirty years. Exhibiting Akitas is my passion and hobby. I have always
respected the sport, judges and exhibitors and the same respect has been given to
me in return.
At this show I presented an Akita dog in the 12 to 18 month class which currently
possessed three major wins and 14 points towards his championship. Judge Coady
graciously awarded my dog a reserve win which I humbly accepted. While giving
me the ribbon he stated to me “there are two types of Akitas, American and
Japanese.” Then asked me several times “do you understand the difference and
what I am trying to say.” He further stated that my dog was what he liked when he
first started judging the breed. However, through education he has learned that this
type of Akita (Japanese Akita) was not the American Akita and he no longer
rewarded them in his ring.
I did not agree with Mr. Coady’s comments; I am very knowledgeable of the
written standard and agree with the Akita Club of America that the breed is one.
However, I simply thanked him and walked out of the ring.
This letter is not to complain about his judging or selections in the ring, I respected
his decision.
My complaint and question to the AKC is whether or not Mr. Coady crossed the
line of professionalism when he halted his judging – apparently thinking that I had
requested the AKC Representative to come to his ring which was requested by
someone other than me. Mr. Coady walked out of the ring pointing his finger in
my face and aggressively shouting at me, restating his comments in the ring. Mr.
Coady’s demeanor towards me came across as grandstanding in front of spectators
and fellow exhibitors in an attempt to belittle and embarrass me. It was clearly
evident that Mr. Coady was angry that an AKC Rep had come to his ring.
My question to the AKC is whether or not Mr. Coady’s actions outside the ring are
within the code of conduct for Judges?
8
In my thirty years of showing dogs I have never personally seen this behavior from
a Judge. In my opinion there is no place for this conduct in the sport. A judge
should never disrespect other exhibitors in the ring by walking out of it with the
intent to embarrass an exhibitor outside ring. I hope other exhibitors and I never
experience it again.
Sincerely,
Cornelius Campbell

Witness Statement from Kathy Coffman
(Breeder of Dog Central to This Complaint)
To: Judging Operations Department of the AKC
Subject: Judge Clay Coady’s Conduct at the Mispillion KC All Breed Show on
November 9, 2014
I am the breeder of the dog that Cornelius Campbell entered and showed in the “12
& Under 18 Months Dogs” class at the subject show. There were two dogs in this
class and they comprised the entire entry of class dogs.
After judging the class, the judge, Clay Coady talked with Mr. Campbell for a
conspicuously long period of time. When Mr. Campbell exited the ring he
appeared to be in a very puzzled state. He told me that Mr. Coady had
emphatically and repeatedly told him: “This is a Japanese Akita! DO YOU
UNDERSTAND THAT?” Mr. Campbell owns this dog’s sire and I am the breeder.
We both know this is an American born dog and is NOT a Japanese Akita. I called
for the AKC Rep as I felt we were not judged to the AKC standard but rather
dismissed in this judge’s mind based on kennel club rules of other countries. Mr
Coady clearly made this assumption based on this dog’s very acceptable AKC
markings of a White Faced Red dog (not exclusive to Japanese Akitas).
James Mitchell showed up ringside, entered the ring, and spoke to Mr. Coady, then
spoke with Mr. Campbell as the exhibitor, and then spoke with me. I expressed
my concerns to him that according to Mr. Campbell this judge had not claimed
these to be his opinions and I felt we should be judging this breed to the standard
that the Akita Club of America has provided not based on the actions of other
countries or Kennel Clubs outside the US. Mr. Mitchell repeatedly insisted that the
AKC gives their judges a lot of leeway in the ring.
During my discussion with Mr. Mitchell, Jane Johnson interrupted to describe a
situation currently occurring in the ring that she felt required Mr. Mitchell’s
immediate attention. Ms. Johnson said:
o “Jimmy, this judge is in the ring right now giving handler, Heather
Bremmer, a blow by blow account of what is going on while judging the
class”.
o “I feel he should not be discussing another exhibitor’s dog with anyone in
the ring.”
10
o “I am about to enter the ring with my specials bitch and I do NOT want this
judge in the ring talking about someone else’s dog when I enter the ring”
o “I feel this is unprofessional. . . . How will this look to the novice
exhibitors?”
Mr. Mitchell entered the ring to have a brief conversation with Mr. Coady. After
Mr. Mitchell left the ring, I saw Mr. Coady suddenly halt judging, exit the ring in a
huffed manner, and walk outside the ring right up to Mr. Campbell, who had been
standing quietly observing the judging as another of Mr. Campbell’s entries was
currently in the ring for judging. Mr. Coady began pointing and shaking his finger
in Mr. Campbell’s face.

Kathy Coffman

Witness Statement from Jane Johnson
(BOB Exhibitor at Subject AKC Event)
To: Judging Operations Department of the AKC
Subject: Judge Clay Coady’s Conduct at the Mispillion KC All Breed Show on
November 9, 2014
Just a note: I have been showing Akitas for over 18 years and have never seen this
type of behavior in a judge before. I called AKC on Monday11/10/14 to ask about
the AKC reps’ responsibilities because I was confused why Jimmy, the AKC rep.,
ignored my request to stop the judge from talking about another person’s dog once
it had left the ring. I have had many good conversations with Jimmy about rules
and rule changes over the past several years. He has always been friendly and
helpful.
My conversation with Tim Thomas was enlightening. He explained that an AKC
reps’ job was to monitor situations and explain the rules—but not act like the
police.
I decided to review the AKC Judges Rulebook as well.
From the AKC Rules, Policies & Guidelines for Conformation Judges:
JUDGING THE DOGS
[P] With this authority comes the responsibility to be thoughtful and considerate as
you judge each dog entered according to all AKC Rules, Policies and Guidelines.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES AS A JUDGE Breed knowledge through experience
and ongoing study, you must demonstrate sound knowledge of the breeds you
judge. As breed standards are revised, it is your responsibility to know and to judge
by the current standard.
Do not discuss the merits of the dogs you are judging or may judge, or talk at
length with anyone who may be exhibiting under you.
Avoid making inappropriate comments to exhibitors in or out of the ring. Be polite,
but generally limit your conversation with exhibitors to instructions on positioning
or gaiting the dogs.
Upon reading several passages form the AKC Judges Rulebook I realized just how
out of line the judge was.
12
The most unfortunate part of the weekend was that a new exhibitor watched the
drama unfold. This was only her second show. While we were packing up for the
day she said: “I don’t know if showing is really for me.” The bullying tactics of
the judge along with his disregard for the AKC Akita standard are what prompted
this person to question if she wanted to continue showing her dog.
During Akita judging, the AKC rep. went into the ring and had a short
conversation with Mr. Coady. The AKC rep. left the ring to stand to the right of
the in gate. Mr. Coady walked out of the ring past the AKC rep. and over to an
exhibitor that had already shown to him. Mr. Coady’s manner was stiff and
irritated. He had a frown on his face as he left the ring. When Mr. Coady
approached the exhibitor he got so close that the exhibitor had to take a step back.
The observation that I made was that Mr. Coady was acting very aggressively to
the exhibitor. After a brief conversation Mr. Coady marched back into the ring.
Thank you.

Witness Statement from April DeGraff
(Spectator)
To: Judging Operations Department of the AKC
Subject: Judge Clay Coady’s Conduct at the Mispillion KC All Breed Show on
November 9, 2014
Hello my name is April DeGraff. I am writing this letter because I witnessed what
I would describe as very odd behavior from a Judge. I was told by spectators the
Judges name was Mr. Clay Coady.
I do not show dogs but I do own and love several rescued mix breeds. I regularly
attend local dog shows to see the beautiful pure breed dogs and purchase items
from the vendors.
I attended the Mispillion KC Dog Show on November 9, 2014 as I have gone to
these shows for several years now. While watching the Akitas I witnessed the
Judge have what seemed to be a longer than normal conversation with a handler
after awarding the ribbons. The handler never said anything but appeared to have a
confused look on his face while he smiled and walked out of the ring.
I noticed the handler return ringside after putting his dog away and quietly stood in
an area where I was sitting to watch the remaining dogs in the ring. Secondly, I
witnessed two people who appeared to be AKC officials walk into the ring and
have a conversation with the judge. After the officials left the ring, the judge
stopped judging the dogs walked out of the ring approached the handler standing
behind me with his finger pointing, he starting shouting about what he had said to
him in the ring.
I cannot quote exactly what the Judge was saying as I was more so shocked at how
he was saying it. It came across as belligerent and tasteless as if he thought he was
God. I admired the handler’s self-control and how he respectfully asked the Judge
to return to the ring.
I have been attending shows as a spectator for many years and this my first time
witnessing this kind of behavior from anyone especially a Judge.
I just could not stop thinking about this and felt compelled to inform the AKC
about the Judges behavior.
14
Hopefully, he will be reminded that as a Judge he is representing the AKC and his
inappropriate behavior can deter spectators from attending dog shows.
Respectfully,
April DeGraff
