Paul dog dog owners can be a strange lot and i have seen many a good line go down a bad road because it was took on board by the show brigade. I remember the middleton lines of terrier being very good workers. Then the show brigade got a hold of them and even Middleton himself went down that road because the money was too good to turn down. Greg mosley white went the same road and the Brightmoor blacks. All got took to the show,s because most that owned them didn't even have work for them. I hope the BMH in this country is kept by deerstalkers and worked by them for the correct reason. Show,s can be good fun as said but thats all they are.
My worry about colour is because with in a breeds allowance of colour a fad can emerge . Because they will sell well or if they are winning well at shows that will be the ones that are bred from and the small gene pool becomes even smaller.
