How important is structure to you?

[Frank43]

What does structure mean to you?

How do you define it?

Structure for what exactly?

Richard Stratton wrote long ago about the varying styles that many dog men appreciated. Would every style require the same structure?

Ralph Greenwood based the confirmation standard based upon winning dogs of the day. That was his universal structural standard for judging dogs without actual performance testing. Do you agree with it? Do you understand it? Is it relative to actual performance?

So many variables to compute. Or is it?

Is it just a function of what many call the will to win, regardless of the advantages or shortcomings?

which stratton book?

If I remember correctly it was The Book of the American Pit Bull Terrier. The one with the Red, Red nose Female on the cover. There is also a chapter on The Basis for Conformation also in that same book.

thanks i think i have them all. I read them. I just don't remember that part. Sometimes you read it and it doesn't stick until you have a real life question and need expert opinions
