I was distracted like that, to some degree, earlier on when I was in dogs. The longer I was in dogs, and the more I saw out of dogs I thought were distractions, I realized most simply weren't. It wasn't that I always had the best dogs, though there were plenty of times I felt that way. What I did see is that a lot of times, dogs that are distractions on paper aren't so much a distraction in the box. Stories are a distraction. Paperwork is a distraction. All of the distractions disappear once two dogs enter into the arena. Dogs like Titere, that show that capacity to win, were the only distractions I paid any attention to. Or dogs that had a unique ability to produce quality dogs over and over regardless of breeding. To me, those should be the only distractions worth entertaining, and at that point, they are simply dogs you consider may have the ability to move your yard ahead. Anything else is just bullshit for me.
