Lol, whatever. Wasn't attacking. Hey, I know your mad, but I'm not. Question for you? My Dad and I both graduated from Tech. You wouldn't happen to be going there would you? It's been a while, but I have fond memories of going out to the strip to pick up recreational beverages. . . I mean fond memories of my interesting professors, lol. I even have a picture on my bullentin board of when I was 6 years old on the Red Raider's lap, lol.

| I for one am a show breeder. Not afraid of anything. I have no problem with anyone breeding if it is done correctly and in the best interest of the breed. But I also believe that the only way a breeder has the right to offer show quality dogs is to have been in the ring and Championed dogs. I do believe that you should gain approval of your foundation from knowledgeable professional your foundation before proceeding with your breeding program.

| well in reto respect i do understand both sides have been on both sides and i guess what it comes down to you may have the greatest dogs in the world but untill you actually have one finish in the show ring you can really not call you'r self a show breeder show breeders have dogs that are showing and are finished even if you dog is show quality and never show's it is still just a pet i do feel everyone that breeds no matter what breed it is should at least attened a few shows to see what akc standard really is with that breed you can read all you want but i do believe that seeing the dog's that are showing gives another view on what you can base you'r breeding dogs to if you are wanting to stay within the standards and protect what akc is asking us to do there always be a difference of opinion between pet breeders and show always have been i guess always will be Last edited by cutiepieyorkies; 04-23-2007 at 05:16 AM. |

But not everyone wants to show. It's a sport and some people are just not interested in showing. That does not mean that they will not make a good breeder. | |

Why dig back and keep bringing these up Delores requested this to be closed too. I agree with Cutiepie, there will always be some differences I guess......nothing wrong as long as it's kept clean and not personal. No one deserves to be attacked. General comments should be tolerable IMHO though.

But what does come to mind is why when anyone wants questions answered about the standard, breeding, whelping, etc. they turn to the exhibitor breeders for answers. But, then turn around and question their motives for being in the ring.

| I did not mean to lump all show breeders into the same category, any more than I would want to be lumped into the same category as puppy millers. I am almost 60 years old, and have just now started breeding, for a hobby, just have the pleasure of improving my own breeding program. I doubt if I will ever produce a show dog, and even if I thought I had a show quality, I will never know because I don't intend to show. |

Jeannie that is fine to be a hobby breeder that improves the breed. But, you did come out on the attack on show breeders asking what they are afraid of, and, when a statement like that is made in generalities against show breeders.....mmmmmmm I usually don't come out that strongly, but this time I couldn't hold back. As I've said in the past, I'm not here to judge or to alienate but to help.....I don't believe that everyone is cut out to show, but I do believe if you breed you should do so with the desire to improve and protect the beed. By the way I'm 60 too......
