working dogs and show dogs can peacefully co exist. responsibly bred purebred dogs and responsibly bred mixed breed dogs can co exist. why are people so small minded.
#dogblr
#i just had to read a conversation in a conformation group
#where show people claimed flat out that because alaskan huskies and other mixed breed dogs work well in harness
#that means that the working ability in the siberian was less important than the way the dog looked and i'm just/??
#what standard are yall reading.
#anyways dogs in the working group should have to obtain working titles to have register-able puppies imho
#show dog people really just be ~like that~ and i am so glad not to be involved
#and tbh as a musher its impossible for me to be as involved in the community and not see the modern dog fancy for the absolute bs it
#like i love my purebred dogs gonna get more purebred dogs
#but the purpose bred mix breeds have just as long of pedigrees as my dogs do in this sport and they win nearly everything
#because they were bred to do their job appropriately
#if a siberian husky can't pull a sled its not worthy of being bred ffs
#a breed's history in work and its ability in work are still important even if the sport is dominated by responsibly bred mixed breed dogs
#not to mention so many sled breeds are indigenous breeds co opted into the dog fancy by white people
#who generally think they know better
#chuchki people want these dogs to work
#inuit want these dogs to work
#even fucking leonard seppala would be livid if he knew yall didn't care about the working drive of these dogs
#anyways these same people went on and on about how a dog with good drive to work from a working kennel was
#'degrading the breed'
#if that doesn't give you the ick you hanging with the wrong folks
#very few show sibe people doing mushing in a larger capacity rn and it shows tbh
#i love watching akc people getting all snobby about working line sibes
#espeically uk dogs bc its like
#oh wait that dog you just criticized won the breed ring at crufts you absolute nut
#like maybe shut up and realize different interpretation of the standard exists and is a good thing
