   BTW – Pluis Davern, the trainer that oversaw Baxter’s S&R training, is also an AKC conformation and hunt test judge. She breeds working Sussex Spaniels.

   Lets be honest Scotty. The Golden type in this video is really what i was always accustomed to growing up. To me and most of the rest of this country that is a golden retriever. In form and function. The Show goldens are a-Typical as they are not what we see on television nor what we see normally in everyday life.

   I would be more inclined after having seen the show type for the first time react the same way my kids, friends and neighbors who own the field type would react…

   What kind of dog is that?

   Is that …..A giant Spaniel?

   Is that …. A Yellow Newfoundland?

   Is that…. Some kind of Mountain dog Mix?

   What kind of hybrid is that?

   or the best one from a neighbors child….

   Hey that looks like a giant version of one your little retrievers.

   “Well, why yes it does, Christopher, good eye kiddo?” ;-)
