And the reason I was confused is because I could not see how you are working harder. We work just as hard, if not harder. You may be talking more about conflicting opinions you are faced with by others over time, since you have parties. We all make choices in our life and that was your choice. That's all. |
No you misunderstod what I said.
Those of us that y'all call BYBs, because we don't show, still want nice dogs, but we have to work harder to get them because we cannot start out with show quality breeding stock. We have to start from scratch and build our own quality dog, which takes years and years.
Most of us will never get there, but we enjoy the challenge.
The partis have come a long way toward being accpted in the last few years. I believe they will be in the AKC shows some day.
But I love the traditionals also. They are beautiful and I would love to have some really quality traditionals, but will just have to do it the hard way and build them from scratch.
Thank you for the compliment on my dogs. They might not be show dogs, but they are sound, healthy and of good temperament
