My one and only Canadian/American Champion was not sloppy in the rear, he was clean coming and going, his temperament was decent, his side gait was correct ( not lifty)..he was a bit on the leggy side and could have had a deeper body,one ear tilted in a bit, he did well at his futurity and maturity...winning his class both years ( there was no reserve in his day) and he won a large novice class at the National in 97 under Ms. Amidon...so in my opinion he was over all more than decent....however when we went to all-breed shows we usually, but not always, got our butts kicked....I don't care how you spin it..there was and there still is a difference between the two types of shows...we have one standard, we should have one type of wolf...eh..I mean dog.......last week of school then two weeks of FREEDOM!...too bad we do not get snow days in California!...FB ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
