Oh wow - totally disagree on that one Myra :o) I think when you start comparing dogs to other breeds that is when you can get into trouble and lose sight of the breed. I have shown one dog in AKC and never past its championship yet I think my dogs can stack up against some of the best for movement. I have been fortunate to have a lot of Crismark behind my dogs and there is nothing like that "floating" gait whether they are running in my backyard or in a specialty ring.
