in my opinion, a great dog doesn't need to be compared to other dogs...because he performs with company or without...
I disagree... a great dog SHOULD be compared if one intends to improve what is... checking "oneself" is very important in a breeding operation.
That is true. As long as you look at it that way instead of a pissing contest.
dub... even with very best friends... there is ALWAYS some level of a pissing contest. Nothin' wrong with it in my opinion, as long as respect is shown
