Good point in some ways Jackie. NO ONE is always right......and what is right
for you or
Sara or me or Lynda is is not right for someone else.
But ...to take a response from some that do respond and "assume" we are being
confrontational
and wanting to change every one to our way of thinking makes it a tad difficult
to RESPOND at all
at times.
No one is trying to change Sara to their thinking that I can see........but she
has gotten many
careful, thoughtful and helpful responses.
For Sara to take a 'broad brush' and criticize Linda after checking out her
web site for titles
that impress her is not fair. Many of us do not update our web
sites........and many of us do not
always advertise in the Review........and many do not have the time or the
money to do what someone
else does.........and we are not accountable to Sara or anyone else for
that.... when trying to respond
as helpfully and honestly as we can to her valid questions.

I disagree that she's being smug. Personally, I feel that she's challenging
what people are saying.
A person can ask for help and advice (and take some of that help and advice)
and still disagree
with parts of what they're being told.
Help and advice is often wanted and needed, but people are only going to take
the parts that
are useful to them, or, take what's useful at that present time, and use the
rest later.
And even if somebody ASKS for advice, they are not obligated to take it. It
is "food for thought".
Not always consumed. Sometimes it ends up as leftovers.

Sara,
We also bred and co-owned (from american show lines) 2 UD dogs - one of
which
was High in Trial at one of our German Shepherd dog Club of america National
specialties over an entry of over 100 dogs.
several of our dogs don't have titles on one end or the other but most do and
many have
both. I work full time and also have a farm and horses to care for so my
'training time' is
limited. I sell my best working prospects to obedience judges and others who
have the time and
dedication to give them that I do not but my focus is always to breed the
best of both worlds.
You ask for help and information but you come across as very smug in your own
beliefs
(as many novices do). It seems to me that your level of smugness may make it
very hard for
people to help you. Might want to drop the attitude. I hope you find someone
willing to work with you.

Lynda,
Thank you for your reply! I checked your website and you have nice dogs!!
But, I did notice that
your one dog with advanced performance titles did not have an AKC
Championship...Just sayin'!
I see lots of American Champions in the all-breed or Speciality ring that
have low level performance
titles but how many have advanced titles? I know as the titles get higher the
dogs must be really
structurally solid to handle the physical demand required at the advanced
level. I know.
They could do it iftheir owners had the time. Well, maybe they should find
the time!
As I flip through the Review, I don't see any recent CH or Select dogs with
advanced performance titles?
Just putting a RN on a dog doesn't make it a high level working performance
dog!!
Regards,
Sara
