They do not have the structure or temperment for the most part. They usually are much bigger as well compared to here. Of course there are exceptions especially those breeders that are working with North American breeders which is where many are trying to get breeding stock from. Many show breeders won't sell over there anymore unless they know the European breeder very well once it was discovered contracts are nonbinding in Europe.
Many very good lines got away from good breeders over here because of that issue.
I wonder if they say the same thing about the Canadian dogs as you do about them? Its not nice to put down other countries show dogs.
