terrecar Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 No mention of structural soundness or working ability. Unbelievable. https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/news/supply-more-us-bred-working-dogs/?utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook_org&utm_campaign=202200609_posting&fbclid=IwAR3aHvRtzaeiCYUJ3mLQfDXcpKgfFyw7ZvfOmw_Z8ig3B5qX96x2UPn3D8Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligande Posted June 18, 2022 Report Share Posted June 18, 2022 Totally misses the reason, I used to live next door to a Belgium bred German shepherd who was a bomb dog. She was gorgeous, straight backed excellent hips and worked until she was almost 11, you never see dogs like her in the US. I might never have got a border collie if GSDs looked like her.

gcv-border Posted June 21, 2022 Report Share Posted June 21, 2022 OMG and LMAO! Like we should listen to the AKC Detection Dog Task Force for advice on how to breed structurally sound, working dogs? Actually, the article, and research, suggests establishing a more consistent procurement procedure for domestic dogs, but if the domestic dogs aren't up to the task, who would want to buy them?
