They're in wraps yes but do everything a dog does... wraps do not restrict a dog, don't hurt a dog, and do not prohibit them from being dogs. I don't agree with getting all the titles at whatever cost, but I find most the exhibitors at dog shows treat their dogs no differently than pets and still have have their sights set straight ie. on the standard rather than titles. | I agree, Most of the breeders I know they wrap their dogs coats and put a wrapping jacket on the dog and the dogs are not restricted in anything. Think of it this way women put curlers in their hair and they still do other things. Anyway there are some that do keep their dogs restricted just like there are some who do whatever it takes to get a title on the dog they are showing, but not all of us are like that.
