I have become friends with a neat lady (many met her at the Ventura
Specialty) who has both show and hunting Irish Setters. I seriously had to
ask what
her hunter was!!! Sure it LOOKED like the IRish that I saw all the time at
the shows....maybe a rescue, a mix? Nope...just from the hunting line.
Same
with the Goldens.
When I first went on dog talk lines (wow...WAY BACK) There was a man who was
very disdainful of labradors (or goldens, I forget exactly) in the show ring
(Do you remember him, Tom?). At times, very irritatingly so. I believe that
was the first time that I used the " Don't wrestle with pigs. They love it
and you'll get dirty" phrase. He responded with "Are you calling me a pig
now".
Just interesting on a Wednesday morning
