The Importance of Titles, Health Screening and Breed Surveys on Breeding Stock
Historically, dog shows and other related events were developed with a very specific purpose in mind – to select and recognize those dogs with the best breeding characteristics, in order to guarantee the future health, stability and vitality of individual breeds.
