If you are in the show circuit and you are showing your dogs to prove that they are worth specimens of the breed correct?

If you breed to unfinished dogs are you not supplying the pet market also?
I really want this one answered also. How many of you exhibitors have done ALL the tests on their dogs, and I mean all of them that are bred or shown? These little ones you are growing up to bring in the ring, have their parents passed all these tests also?
I would reply to the why show the carrier Yorkie question...because we also need to have our stock evaluated. Unfortunately at this time it is the only way to do that with the AKC shows. Do you not show for that reason? Have you not ever bred an off colored dog (black and tan or lighter blue one) to improve your line in another dept (back, structure, coat texture)? |
Yes that is where the enhancing comes in.
