And again what is wrong with breeding to the standard and for working ability?? When you start seperating the two it means trouble for the breed IMO.
I agree. I'm so sick and tired of the "conformation camp" and the "working camp" bashing each other. What nonsense! The best conformation dogs usually also have several working titles, as well. There is nothing that says a show dog can't work, and a working dog can't meet conformation standards.
