The problem lies in that we really don't have a way to adequately test the
dogs. The temperament test we do in the ring is minimal at best and dogs
can easily be trained/conditioned to pass it.
We do offer the TC but it is not mandatory and still far from adequate,
IMHO. You can still train a dog to get through it.
Now, try to get a dog to run down the field and bite the bad guy who is
waving a stick at him is another story.
