jdt is correct. Those that still make their livings using these dogs are a real strength for the future utility of the dogs. There are men that have very nice dogs but are known only to a few local folks, and they prefer it that way. And they do know the pedigrees and the work styles of the dogs in those pedigrees, a true performance pedigree. Also, fads mean little to them.
