As soon as this breeder mentioned hernia I would have ended the conversation. No not all show prospects are great dogs but the difference between a show dog & a pet is the presence of a major fault, according to the Breed Standard & the difference between a show dog & a breeding dog is a minor fault. A Hernia & a roach back are major faults & should only be sold as a pet not a future breeding prospect. |
