chocolate I have looked at your web-site. None of the dogs I saw were anywhere near show quality, let alone breeder quality. I guess, in person, they are all within the standard of the breed.?? I dont see how you are improving the breed when you continue to breed to your own standard and not the AKC, UKC, or even the CanidianKC standards. Yes, they are all very cute(except, personally I think Chocs are ugly), so it must be that you only breed for monetary purposes. Over the years of breeding, have you made any improvements toward the AKC standard? Or have they just gotten "better" to your standard? Have you had any of them evaluated by an AkC judge or a YTCA member? Or is it "AKC and YTCA be damned, they know nothing after 100 plus years". But, as long as that 2500 and 3500 keeps rolling in, you will keep breeding only for the current trend and not make any improvements toward the standard. |
