What is a show breeder..? Where do you come up with these tricky questions..LOL
If you show and breed, I think it makes you a show breeder...no one says you have to win to call yourself a show breeder. I sure see the point of view that if you never win, does it still make you a show breeder..I guess so, but not a very good one. There are many adjectives to describe types of show breeders..not all are equal in that arena.

I would like to point something out.. IMO...buying another persons breeding and showing that dog does not make the person any less an exhabitor. A person must learn with something on the end of the lead. If they perfer not to breed one, they have the option to buy one. If I am going to shell out alot of money to show, then it will be mine or do it for a close friend who I admire.
I do think it wise to give the breeder all the credit due them in advertizing the wins. I would use the breeders kennel prefix in the name..only fair. Once you breed that dog then the pups are your breeding.

If I am not mistaken, Guemart's winner at the Garden is basically Parkside..infact when looking at his advertized pedigrees, no more then one or two dogs even carry his "Guemart" perfix per pedigree.
