honestly I feel sorry for every single show bred dog. because they are bred crippled on PURPOSE, they are bred to look pretty and thats it, who cares if they can move? show bred greyhounds would fall apart if they tried to run, police and anyone who used GSDs for work NEVER use show bred dogs, because they cant work, they are bred to stand on their hocks for some crazy reason er rather, but german GSDs have the ability to work and to walk. show bred labs drive me up the wall, those dogs are so fippin fat and bulky they they would have a heart attack if they had to do actual work. then their are all these breeds with smashed faces, everyone I know who does not know the names of the smashed faced breeds, describe them to me like this "those dog that look like they ran into a wall" I feel sorry for those. then their are corgies, bred now with such a long back its painful to look at. nearly all show bred dogs are bred to the extreme bulk so much that they could never do what they were bred to do. they are bred only for looks, for the most part show dogs are rather brainless but people delude themselves into thinking a their show dogs are ever so smart, and if given the chance they could work with the best. right... sorry but give those show dog to the top working trainers and they cant get them very far at all. I truly feel sorry for any and all show bred dogs.
Thank you for insulting my show bred dog. He and I appreciate your feelings of sympathy.





Oh and he's been on sheep. Didn't do all that bad either. If we had more access to a place to train, I'd look into getting some titles on him.

Oh and he's my highest scoring obdience dog. Scored in the 190's. (Out of 200)

Thank you also for insulting my future whippet puppy, who will come from a breeder that shows.

One of her whippets.


Oh and he also does what he was bred to do.


So before you go feeling all "sorry" for all show dogs do them a favor and don't.

Feel sorry for dogs that come from untested parents. Feel sorry for dogs that come from litters bred to show kids the "miracle of life". Feel sorry for dogs bred to make a buck.

But don't feel sorry for pretty dogs that CAN and DO work and come from genetically sound parents.
