1. Are you a breeder.(Please answer--as this will explain many things)
2. Which test are you refering to --the paternalDNA test-
.IT IS STILL AN HONOR SYSTEM.The breed standard is what the AKC standard is (no mention of flushing orpointing only retrieving) By the way the AKC is the only regristry trying to do it right but they can't check them all.
3. Does Casey have a pink nose by the way?

1. No. Casey has been studded out 3 times.
2. There is a brand new test to determine the purity of the pups --- not just the paternal/maternal test.
3. Casey has a black nose (and black eye rims and lip leather). He is not a Dudley if that's what you want to know.

Casey was not trained to "point" -- He made his first point at less than 12 weeks of age. It is a genetic trait, not a trained response.

Do you consider pointing to be an undesireable trait in a Retriever? How about --- Is retreiving an undesireable trait in a pointing breed?
