FrostyPaws I hear you loud and clear. Na, not a mountain at all, but you raise a VERY good point. IMHO ALL of the things that you described are subjective on one level or another. The only things I take as the gospel is what I have seen myself, most other things are speculation, at best.


The vast majority of times all it takes is two sets of looking at the same thing and you’ll end up with just as many opinions. This can be semantics or tragedy.


You have more than a handful “dogmen” that are simply ignorant, and then you have those that are simply delusional or living for yesterday. I call that a push. The worst is the BS’er that is stuck on stupid who doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the wall. You gotta keep them around, it's part of schooling.


Mr. Cooper told me some time ago: “son get yourself a good bitch, and you’ll never want for a bulldog. Bottom line, get good dogs and you’ll never sell another dog, they’ll sell themselves. When you make that call, have your money right, and have done your homework.”
