The first thing I would love to see is our breed
free of Hip/Elbow problems.
The next is stable temperaments. I think too many people breed
for the wrong reasons - they look at the dog and not what is behind
it. We all have done this and I am no exception. This may have caused
problems and we need to learn from this, as it makes us better breeders.
I feel the breeders pride of placement should be for all the pet
buyers, as these people really love and care for their dogs. I'm
certainly not saying the show buyers don’t look after their
dogs, but the bulk of puppies go to pet homes, so we need to encourage
these people to have their dogs desexed to prevent unwanted puppies
being born that may cause trouble.
