Does anyone know V Treu vom Schäferstolz story? - Page 5

Präger..

  I understand your frustration with the guy who called you "salesman". You are successful enough with your dogs that you do not have to "sell" them to anyone on a forum such as this. I think your dogs stand for themselves and any one who knows dogs can see what you have got. For those who don't know, no amount of talking and sincerity can convince them. Don't waste your time with these people. They almost always find out the hard way and end up buying every mediocre dog offered by the real swindlers. If they get lucky and have a good dog, they seldom really know or do it justice.

  I love what you are doing with the dogs and I think you have some of the most interesting and informative posts on this forum. You are definitely not wasting your time with most of us. 

  It is very frustrating when you try to be honest about your dogs and some jerk finds something to nitpick (jerks are good at this), then they rub your nose in it. For example, I have been straightforward in revealing the occasional faults I've seen in my dogs.. I have here a bitch who washed out of my breeding program because of a missing premolar.. but, she is outstanding as a working dog. I know that as soon as you are honest about some small thing like this that there is always someone out there who will broadcast the news to anyone who will listen.. "So and so's dogs have missing premolars". Then, you want to keep quiet and not tell these things, but it is to the better understanding and improvement of our dogs that we are objective and honest. It is also in the longrun to our advantage with discriminating clients that they know we are honest about our dogs and not over-selling them or wasting anyone's time.

  Sometime I would like to meet you and come out to see the dogs you have. I do like Mambo. He looks like a terrific dog with a lot of zest for life!

Kudos to you, Hans!  You're a top hand in your field. I can see that, very clearly. We will inevitably differ in some opinions, down the road, but I have a lot of respect for you and your dogs. That is sincere!

That larger pic happens to be the one I enlarged and enhanced with Genuine Fractals software, taken from the registration pic, because the old one on the database looked like a solid black lithographic print.  Could hardly identify the breed.  Sue me.

Hans I wouldn't get upset with someone calling you a salesman. That's what you do. You sell dogs. No big deal.
