While you're in wondering mode, ya ever wonder what happens to the pups that don't quite attain this 'best of the best' stamp of approval? Like the white boxer, or the deaf aussie? How many of these little 'mishaps' do these reputable show breeders just quietly dispose of without anyone being any the wiser? Ya just know that the breeders are not going to take the chance of neutering it and rehoming it and having the word go out that so and so stud has crippled pups. I'm not talking about off colours or incorrect height/weight here, I mean serious birth defects through trying to acheive exaggerated breed standards.
Give me hybrid vigour any day.
