Mind you as Isabella doesnt do what she is told I doubt I would get far
Sometimes its nice to be able do something simply for the pleasure
I agree Linnie, My Cai is from an excellent bloodline and he has beautiful conformation although I still may show him and he is unaltered for now. But if he does end up getting fixed I would still like the chance to show him off at maybe an ACD all breed event. I'm not saying this type of showing should be televised or anything like on the Eukanuba cup LOL! But just a fun event for anyone who wants to promote their breed in a positive light and also give the breeder some props. And Crossfire, great post *smiles* you did pretty much say everything. I thought of this thread after the topic of conversation came up on another forum and wanted to see how everyone felt about it on GP. I don't think that showing s/n pets would have any ill affect on any breed in the same way a movie does. I think not only would it promote spaying and neutering but that people can still show there dogs less a part without adding more pups to the world. And Crossfire, isn't showing dogs one big beauty contest whether they are fixed or not? LOL! I'm not trying to cause trouble in saying this, just being funny. LOL! *wink*
