I see so much good in the dog sports I do. But I also see tons of bad, with too many people looking to make a buck. After years of owning mutts, I got my first pure bred and papers dog almost 7 years ago. Best choice I ever made. Excellent breeder with proven lines that were traced back 8 generations. My other breed isn’t registered, but had all the same tests and considerations- and comes from proven lines. He’s incredible.
I did a day long custody trial over six dogs who were in agility. Crazy.
