One thing that really bugs me about this dog is he / she has a LOUSY front. i'I'd bet his gait is very incorrect. Scarlette [quote1259604639=PUGNACES-BRITANNIAE-AK] [quote1259597656=Jrouble] [quote1259583585=PUGNACES-BRITANNIAE-AK] WOW they look great! unbelievable what show breeders have done to their breed, seems almost like they didn't like their breed. why changing a breed so much if you like it? i have asked the neopolitan breeders here some polite questions, but obviously they are only on this site to promote their dogs and spaming the board with pictures. [/quote1259583585] Thats a pretty unecessary generalization and a negative one at that... I know at least a few of them that frequent this board that would be more than happy to answer your questions. Thats if you could assemble them in an intelligible way ;) [/quote1259597656] [color=#660000]believe me mate, i have done it an intelligible way. i have asked why (and i guess you know the two italian breeders that showed dogs here) the dogs get bred for more and more lose skin, so that it almost hangs to the ground, the eyes are closed because the skin covers them etc. it is a fact that show oriented people have changed the breed into a caricarture! i don't say every neoploitan looks that way, but a lot of them look like that and that has nothing do with some "natural" changes that happen in every breed! i could show you 50 pics more like that, but i don't want to spam the thread with these pics.[/color] [URL=http://www.radikal.ru][/URL] [color=#660000]i now that people like babigirl and another female here don't produce these dogs, but fact is many show people love these unhealthy dogs! what doesn't mean other breeds and their health are not effected by show breeders! just have a look here and look how champions walk.[/color] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIaM3hYFszc [/quote1259604639]
