my poodles feel the same way. they take offense to being grouped in the "non-sporting" breed group, especially when we see all those pudgy labradors with custom collars and haughty weimaraners, who really look the part with those sleek lines but are quite clueless when it comes to actual "sporting." and then there are those perfectly groomed setters that only fetch on the weekends. my dogs hike, run, swim, and retrieve regularly. they even go mountain biking with me. so, it's easy to see whey they are a bit resentful about being tagged non- sporting just because they don't hunt and participate in "field activities." i've argued this point with sporting breed owners ad nauseum and written to the AKC, but nobody seems to care. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
