The phrase “form follows function” is a cornerstone of good design, and it holds just as true in the world of purebred dogs as it does in architecture or engineering.
Writing a critique, especially in the context of a conformation dog show, involves providing an objective and structured evaluation of the dog based on its adherence to the breed standard.
Puppies, like humans, go through various developmental stages, including fear periods. These fear periods are a normal part of a puppy's behavioral development, where they become more sensitive to new experiences and stimuli. These periods are crucial for their socialization and learning about the world around them.
As the AmStaff enters the ring, the judge first takes a moment to observe the dog's overall appearance and movement.
Once again I can not stipulate enough, how important it is to not over exercise your puppy! When you get your 8/10 week old puppy, PLEASE keep this image in mind. Their bones do not even touch yet.
