Absolutly. I will help set up the conformation side. I have advocated that for a long time. Set up properly it could go a long way to help with the idea of breeding complete dogs.

I'll put in $500,000.00 and my time if you will. (I'm not joking) E-mail me. Anybody else?
Milt here goes, real quick.
High drive, balanced between prey/fight/defense. Throw in a little dose of sharpness, hardness, and rank. Mix that with absolutly intrepid nerve, a desire to please the handler, and bingo- the perfect working dog. He does not necessarily have to be a house dog either. Just calm enough to be around groups of people and other dogs without a big fuss. Oh, he can't eat my kids either.
working dogs to me would be any dog that will do a specific job.Whether it be protection, herding, hunting, going underground sniffing for temites, and we can't ignore guide dogs. A good guide dog has to have solid nerves without any of the drives.

So, what is your point Milt?
You don't think that a good police dog or protection dog needs the traits that I mentioned before? Or, you do not agree with my definition of a dog capable of serious work? I don't get it. (And I think that pit bull comment was stupid.)
My definition is not an all enclusive one for all working breeds or types of work. I would have to write a book if that was my intention.
Milt, you are officially barred from the VC/RC-UBR. Got that buddy, that means no magazine or newsletter either. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />
"working dogs to me would be any dog that will do a specific job"
Yes Milt and do that job well. Most of the working breeds, it seems to me, were developed by people who could not afford to keep dogs around just for their "fancy." They demanded that their dogs usefulness out-weighed the cost of keeping them. Things are sure different in todays world.
VanCamp, please return my generous check I mailed to you. I addressed the envelpoe R.VanCamp, Oregon I'm sure You'll get it.I didn't disagree with your definition. I just think that you are alittle myoptic in your views.
Jason I agree, but these things happen for a reason.
