Yes, the standard is the same, but our breed type has certainly changed and gotten so much better. That's what I said in my first letter concerning the Illustrated Standard. Orrie's was made Generic,because it IS the Standard,and that doesn't change. Types come and go,Styles change. We see in comparing old Reviews with today's dogs. And it will continue to evolve in our breed,and other breeds as well .But Type and Style is not permanent things,but the STANDARD is. You don't change that.---- Helen Miller Fisher ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2005.
