Thx >That's why it is so important to breed to the standard and not ever emphasize one particular trait over another....balance and moderation.< Sarah Most dogs are balanced and moderate. Do they cover the most amount of ground in the least amount of steps? If not they have a fault of motion which is a very serious fault. I'll leave my moderate balanced dog at home as he is not faultless and is incidiously boring to watch. He does not have to go to shows...just be my wonderful bicolor friend and protector.
