We must introduce new bloodlines to improve health and vigor as well as
improve those anatomical problems that exist here.
The 2 standards--the FCI and the AKC are very similar and it is only the
interpretation by the individual that is different.
I am glad Morton was able to give us the full history. I can only repeat
what I see and what I am told. I am surprised after reading the real history
that Martin did try to justify the roach to me. Maybe I misunderstood him,
I sure wasn't going to argue.
I do wonder how they will bring in new blood-lines when they can't breed to
AKC stock. Or, maybe I am wrong about that too. I understood unless
registered with the SV, they were not allowed to go outside the registry to
breed. I always felt we had an advantage because we can breed into other
registries to try to improve out lines while they were limited.
I do remember when the Germans insisted we, the GSDCA, adopt their standard
or we no longer could call our dogs German shepherds. I was on the board
at the time, when Dan Smith informed us we might have to change our
standard. The reaction from the board did make me laugh out loud.
But, as I said, I spend little time with outside sources. I have enough
to do to try to understand what I am doing.
