hi its me the idiot coming in here to defend dog breeding. we've bred purebreed Weimaraners as a family for over 400 years. we've done it since before we came to america and my great great grandfather brought a litter over hidden in his coat and fed them with bottled milk and scraps of beef as he made it across the ocean. this is who we are. our dogs are consistently bred with the necessary genetic variation, raised from birth to be well socialized, and utterly fantastic. now you may want to knock the fact that dog breeding was what enabled my ancestors to go from farming to running their own kennels but it's part of the american dream and the westminster dog show reminds us all of the immigrant potential that this show embodies.

Wait, did he breed that one litter with each other or with other weimaraners in America? If there were already other dogs in America, why bother bringing them over? Did the American dogs have purebreed paperwork (jfc that phrase). Please tell me they’re at least bred for specific job and not bc they’re pretty.

I watched the show and the golden retriever was just about the prettiest dog I've ever seen and I say that as a pyr owner (the prettiest breed). The GR was robbed imo

while a good breeder will screen for general and breed specific deformities, for example the 'show breed standard' for a german shepherd calls for a very sloped back which causes all kind of hosed up joint problems

We'd only had him a few days and he was still iffy on the concept of beds and skinny as heck. This was in July.



A month later- you can still see the areas where he was shaved for a heart scan and where he had lost fur on his hindquarters from stress and poor bedding.



Five minutes ago, a bit miffed because when I got him to stand up he thought he was getting dinner early.

It makes me really sad when we get a dog at the shelter who breathes like a faulty generator turning over

Even if you want a purebred, adopt! We get beautiful purebred strays and surrenders all the time. Was just training an American Eskimo that could have won this show if she wasn't such an obstinate little rebel about EVERYTHING

That child totally had it coming. Nobody should be able to be out at dusk except cars.
I think a useful distinction can be made between wack purebred dogs with papers people get as pets and working type breeds that are basically landraces. I think it's good people breed pure border collies but not if they are registered with a kennel club basically.
