I'm not trying to say that dogs from breeders will have the same extreme issues as SOME of the rescue babies out there, but training is still important, and their personalities can be a challenge sometimes. If their fearful, that limits what kind of outdoor activities you can do. If their pushy, they might test you all the time, and so on and so on.... So maybe not issues, but dogs are work. Well behaved show dogs are not born that way, a lot of work goes into teaching them how to behave. That was the point I was trying to make.
