Why do you think a standard exists? Just for fun? Something to be ignored when your dogs don't measure up to the standard? If you breed (which takes years) high quality healthy dogs to the standard, and to what you hope to improve with the breed. You will attract multiple "buyers" for your dogs. Before my first litter I had a waiting list of 7-9 qualified buyers. All came from one to one meetings, while I was showing or competing with my dogs. |
Yup thats how I meet my breeder. Good breeders already have most of them sold before they even have them. Yes sometimes they maynot have them all sold but they breed for themselves and never seem to have a problem getting rid of them. PPL don't understand the why there is a "standard" To keep the dog in a healthy range from years,decades , centuries of figuring it out. Not because ppl want it????
But the AKC does modify the breed from time to time to accommodate.
