>I am by no means an expert on the matter of raising dogs, as you can probabley
tell but have had a dog all my life and I am 50 now.   I have noticed one thing
here that has confused me somewhat.  A lot of people talk about improving the
breed but yet they keep their dogs in the house and if they dont do what they

of years has roamed free.  Just wondering out loud here  "Is this good for the
breed" or are we trying to change to breed to fit OUR needs...
