wow! How did you ever get a hold of this! This was truly fascinating to watch. You can see how the breed has differed in some regards throughout the years and yet kept many aspects. Once again, Thank you! You can see a lot of dogs in there however that woudln't fly in the conformation ring today but at least back then they weren't so severely divided into 'field' and 'show' lines
