6. i blame the judges.

are they favoring their buddies in the ring or what? it seems for every breed specific traits, we are seeing exaggerations that are detrimental to the dogs. see gsd hips. a little slope in the stance has turned into an exaggerated disaster for the dogs. a wide looking chest on a bulldog turns into bow legged dogs.

it would be nice if you had to actually prove your dogs met the proper standard to get your papers. or at least to register your litters. it is all about the money, and every idiot that has papers on a dog sees those dollar signs.

ok, sorry, here is your soapbox back.
