I used to show and breed labs so I know all of what you’re saying... I just couldnt get the jist of dont have to win a show.
You explained what you meant simply when you said ( paraphrasing here )either being winners dog or winners bitch.
With that one sentence I got it.
I also used to dabble around in AKC Hunting Retriever events and one of my bitches ( only 2 right now and they’re 10 and 7 ), I have titled. Her sire was a MH aka Master Hunter and he did not enjoy showing just like her. ugh.
My site if you care to look.

Thank you for taking the time to clarify for me. Appreciate it FRiend ~! And a great Sunday to you.
No problem. Sorry I wasn’t clear.
There’s nothing wrong with “just” being WD/B; you beat many dogs usually, anyway. However, it’s counterintuitive to Joe Schmoe to see a dog who never even won BOB to be a “Champion”.
