This message is from: "Bossmare" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> An observation I made when I was showing dogs was that if you looked at the *people* primping and preening over their showdogs (including myself) a point could be made about how grossly imperfect those humans were. 300 lb people trotting Pomeranians and Pekingese. Tiny women posing their Rottweilers. Bucktoothed people showing the judge the perfect teeth of their dog. Maybe our desire for the perfect animal is in compensation for how imperfect we are. We can't go back and select our parents or the traits we wish we had so we try to engineer where we can.
