Am I to understand that now we are complaining about slowing the dogs
down?
I think the worry is that dogs (who) are bred for suspension and exciting
side gait can't go slow without doing something that is unnatural for them and
if the quest for slowing them down continues, breeders will breed dogs w/ a
slightly different structure to accommodate the demands and attempt to create
an exaggerated illusion of suspension while the dog is going slow.
Well, bunk.
A correctly built dog is ELASTIC and is able to collect and extend as the
demands placed upon it warrant. Show under judges who appreciate correct
movement from a correctly built dog and...poof...no problem.
You know, Evan, this could be a new topic on an otherwise repetitive
calendar though <G>.
