I can't be the only person who has ever heard someone say their dog has so much rear or a sloppy rear that there is no way they can go in a all breed ring but they will show the dog in specialties cus that rear can be forgiven. What about those dragging toes? Would you show that dog in all breed or specialty. Think we all know that answer. Dead tails.......... well you can get away with that in both rings.
