Subject: Re: Movement vs temperament

I head it first hand...Lamar said that.  Actually, he said it in a few
different ways. He'd say a spook showed better than a confident dog.   
In  fact,
we have it on tape somewhere...
*******************************************************************************************************
That sure DOES sound like something HE would have said--what a  
ridiculous statement!  The spooks DO try to get away--and they dig  
their feet in harder, giving the illusion of good movement.  This is  
also what I detest about specialties--NOT that there are more spooks  
(than the all-breed shows), but that some of the dogs look like spooks  
with the double handling happening around them!
Good movement or not--a spook will never live here.  Without  
temperament (and health), you don't have a dog, as far as I'm concerned.
