Schaferhunde AKA Sheepdog Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Are there dramatic differences between show and working varieties of breeds German Shepherd Working http://www.donauwolf.ro/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/ara31-main.jpg Show http://germanshepherdtips.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/andy1.jpg What is improved about a dog that can barely move or work due to cruddy hips and a duck waddle gait?

That and the fact that they have stripped it of all its working drive. The Border Collie has been ruined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gideon's girl Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 I believe the obvious answer for the bulldog is that now it teeth don't meet so you don't have to worry about it biting you. Oh and it can't breed naturally, so you don't have to worry about pet overpopulation. Yeah, I'm seeing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCLuvr Posted October 14, 2012 Report Share Posted October 14, 2012 Both of the border collies are beautiful, but you just cannot beat the intensity in the working border collies eyes. I will stick with the ABCA border collies, not interesting in the AKC show border collies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
