Sorry - it cut off what I was saying:
I know a bunch of people that had been doing UKC agility and enjoyed it.
I have not changed my breeding program nor did I run out and buy a bunch of new dogs from JRTAA members to fit in. I breed for a 12-13" dog who can and does still hunt. It is a shame people have this be all end all image of the club as the best while it is better than some but far from perfect. Every dog I breed / show has been BAER tested and Cerf. tested.
My motto is if you dont rescue then dont breed. I have done rescue for as long as I have bred. Everyone cant stand backyard breeders but they all bought their dogs from someone so before everyone casts a stone please look close since it could be one of yours if you dont : 1. Sell with a contract. 2. Keep in touch with owners 3. Put a clause stating they are to return the dog if they cant keep it. Most backyard breeders get their dogs from the horse show crowd, pet shops or were given this dog! Most re |
