How to select the dog? I should say that proper selection should be based on detailed study of the health conditions of the puppy parents and pedigree. At the same time I have to admit that as soon as I see the puppy, I search for something unique.
The potential to succeed in the dog-shows also matter, however, what matters the most is the future daily life with the dog, its inner quality, nature, and how it fits to the family. Therefore I tend to select the dog based on the character and how they would suit our family.
On this page you can see the dog-show results (and quite successful results) of my dogs from the very beginning till today.
