Dawn, I totally agree with you. I have learned a lot about dogs and dog
people in the last twenty years. Unfortunately there are some people out there
and not just in our breed either that all they care about is winning in the
show ring. So what if the dog hits the ground on it's temperament test. So
what
if it has bitten two or three people . It will win at dog shows. That is all
that matters. I have a dog with not the best temperment. I finished him
which was very easy once the handler trained him the way she wanted him to act.
I
have had him all these years because I love him. Would I ever have placed him
in a home? No way!. I think he could have very easily become a fear biter in
the wrong situation. And as we all know a ninety pound dog with a shaky
temperament is a dangerous weapon.JMO.
