You may change your views on 'your type' - and it can take years to get to what you want, and may make a lot of mistakes along the way

Scuse me if I make little/no sense we got our pup Weds and I came down with flu yesterday.
Yes, I'm still learning and no doubt that'll change what I think in some ways and I am open to it. Yes I know what you mean, and some of them will be right too not just those I agree with
I've bought this pup to be part of the family, that's what she is first and foremost, but I also selected her for her potential as a foundation bitch. It depends if she is good enough though. It doesn't matter to either of us if she fails to reach that criteria though because whether we can breed from her or not she's always going to be loved unconditionally.
I've lived long enough to know things don't always work out even when you planned well and gave it your best shot. I always hope mine are very minor and unimportant mistakes
