Also why do you have anatolians and like stumpy dogs? I didn't realize shorty dogs with long hair were masterful working farm dogs.

wtftastic posted:Do you talk about her over tea with the other breeders, making sure to make her feel as excluded as possible from any and all events. A dog is not well bred unless it resembles a footrest. If it doesn't have the official arbitrarily accepted colors then it can't work, because colors is everything.

The long beautiful hair picks up burdock and stickers so that you can just send them into the bush and they'll come out with all the small rodents you are hunting stuck to them. It's extremely functional.

function is defined by color which is defined by what I, a dog lady from a region really very quite far away from where the breed was developed and used, deem to be acceptable. did you know that i have farted in the show ring with several of these dogs and i have made them gently caress before?? that means I am the queen and qualified.

Dog show person knows more about a dog breed than the people who have kept the breed for its original purpose for generations (and who give no shits about color coat conformation).

I wonder what trait judges will pick in show anatolians to over exaggerate and turn into a health problem?

theyre already prone to various cancers and dysplasias but i wont snoot too hard because working bred ones aren't exactly health tested on the reg and probably have a lot of the same issues

SolanaSkyes posted:You managed to find the personal webpage of an idiot who paid an assload of money to import "rare black Anatolians" from a shady dealer in Turkey, ended up with a couple of obvious mutts, and she's been battling to try to get them registered as Anatolians here for years. The ASDCA has refused to register them (and every other black dog that has applied), and that particular person has not bred a litter in several years (Janice last updated her site since 2011). There is another working breeder in the South that claims to have AKC registered blacks, but he also other breeds roaming around amongst them, and very dark brindles. The closest you will come to a "black Anatolian" is a very dark brindle. Example of a working german shepherd https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVOmROsXJ3Y What show people consider the correct form of a german shepherd (the lower they drag their crotches to the floor, the better?) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf95aY8E7_E So sorry if I don't trust your CREDENTIALS as a SHOW LADY Solana, but breeders like you go more for extreme looks than actual viable animals :/. I bet if you went to Anatolia you'd tell the farmers there they have mutt dogs because no true anatolian dog would ever be black (despite that color having been part of the breed for a looooooong time it seems, show people just decided they didn't like black so they exclude it from show standards, just like pugs with any resemblance of a snout are deemed unworthy).
