    Revelator Big Dog

    I gotta disagree here. I was schooled that to be an ace, the dog had to have 7 wins, and no losses. Maybe that isn't correct, but it was common knowledge among the guys I ran with. Ace is a title to be bestowed upon a dog that conquered exceptional feats. Anything less and the title loses it's validity.
    The same can be said for Gr Ch. To be crowned gr ch, you had to be 5-0, and if you went back out after that, and lost, you would be reduced to simply ch. But I see some people here claiming all one must do is receive 5 w's, with no regard to the L column.
