The database is used to certify full dentition
and is open to all breeds.
Are we going too far with databases? Now a database to tell us that a dog
has all his teeth?
I know there are some small breeds, but do we need a German shepherd to be
listed to know he has missing teeth? Most of the time I can see that from
outside the ring.
Or, is this for those of us judges who are getting so old, we can't tell a
missing tooth any more. Or, is it for breeding purposes so we can look up a
stud dog and see how many teeth he had when he had all his teeth?
I know there are uses for databanks, but this one seems to be going too
far. Let's have one for eye color, dark pigment on noses. Maybe a database
for hooked tails, or for longcoats? I suggest one for testicles, if we need
to know.
We need more computers in our lives.
