Thread: Huntaway is now a NKZC recognized breed

would be nice to have the beardie and Smithfield recorded too.

as far as I know the sheepdog trial ass pushed for it.

Recorded pedigrees but never shown ?

Why? Because they can't be bothered recording it themselves?

it's me...... say no to show.

from memory there was a few registered with the united kennel club years ago....... the same registry that accepted the Lockley boar hound lol

Its not the first time the sheepdog registry has nearly fallen over, and had to be picked up by a dedicated individual. I only asked as this may have been the easier alternative for them?

If their main purpose is a working dog, wouldn't the main demand be from people who want a working dog, and those that show them be in the vast minority?

Quoting Pointer "and sequin-suited wearing homosexual men of the show ring prancing around". Ha ha ha ha I went to a dog show with my missus a couple of years back and that description fits exactly with most of the dudes that were there showing their powder puff dogs (Pomeranians and Pekingese).

Until they become the new flavour of the month and everyone has to have one

think of the export dollars.

My father always ran the Smithfield...great all rounders, great hunters (he would take them after rabbits, deer and possums)...have googled them (NZ) a few times...but am yet to see any fotos that depict the Smithfield I knew as a child.

I have a huntaway xlab? breeding-"by roamin catholic xopportunity".
