For show purposes every breed has standards. They in no way indicate how good or attractive a dog is but are simply what are or are not desirable features for competition in dog shows. I owned a very handsome papillon that could never win a dog show because he had too many freckles and asymmetrical markings. That never kept him from being the best papillon in the world to me.
Personally, I think it's stupid for anyone to get a dog - any dog - simply for it's certification ... dogs are companions, not trophies.
I'm not trying out for trophies i just hate that they say that the liver ones are a fault and not beautiful.
Sorry - my comment wasn't directed to you, specifically ... it was a general comment.
It's ok Colleen.
