Paul opines...
I guess I don't see it the same way as some do. I beleive there are some
lines...that are doing very well when it comes to functional dogs...I do
think dogs are better now than they were 20 years ago. That said...there are
some breeders who have profligated lines with inate problems that cannot be
cast aside...and it shows in their progeney.
There are some folks on "Da List" ...who post about problems who have the
very genes in their own program...but do not see or do not care.
It should be that breeders of 30 + years experience would see...the
difference. Some dogs don't show the problems yet pass them along to other
progeney who do...it is a genetic thing you know. And...these breeders I
refer to know full well when the signs are bad...yet they continue to
breed...breed...breed...knowing full well it does nothing to improve the
breed.
I say to anyone who cares...look to your own breeding program and consider
the lines you choose to represent your dogs...Are they functional?
Too many ride the wave of the winning dogs but not the correct dogs...I rest
my case...like it would change anything.
Paul
