| Re: Schutzhund: End All Of Be All? Oops, forgot...Sch was developed as a breed test for another HERDING breed, the GSD, so to say it is an invalid test for our HERDING breed would not be correct, in my opinion.
And Skip, it may not necessarily make the dogs any "safer" but it seems to make the owner "safer", as far as dog awareness and care, given that the dogs involved in the fatalities and bad bite incidents we hear about are NOT Sch titled dogs although some have been Ch and obedience titled dogs!
Sorry all, I am a BIT passionate about my sport!!! (You would have NEVER guessed, right? VBG!) |
