| Well German i am proud to know that there is somone else out there that sees what i mean when it comes to a rottie that you want everyone to say "ooh and ahh!" over as for me i think first and foremost i want a working dog that enjoys doing this type of work instead of worrying too much about is his coat shiny enough for the judges. Not to knock anyone out there into showing because i too want to take a crack at that area too. But my preference and everyone is entitled to their own opinion but mine is to have a dog to work with for isn't that what the rottie is a "Working Dog". And before anyone responds saying that conformation plays a big part on how the dog works, i totally agree however i too would probably want a working dog with character rather than having a show prospect with no drive! |
