Gotta be The Mouth, er, Mouse That Roared, KG. A synopsis: the Duchy of Grand Fenwick declares war on the US because "we" use flyers and white coats in retriever field trials.

This ought to answer the original question

quote="Justin Tackett"]Let me be very clear. Understand when I say this...I am not mincing my words, or trying to make things politically better.
I own SRS lock, stock and barrel. I have no partners in SRS "the event", the rules or any of it's trademarks. I only say that so you know I cannot be out voted, or told what we will do.

You know, at some point you may have your first dog out of basics...maybe, but until then don't expect anyone to take anything you've got to say seriously.

The Quote Best Retrievers in the world is subject to the sport or game played. The winner of a game or championship can say they are the best in that sport. Now if the dog was NFC NAFC MH GRCH and winner of the SRS Crown I would say the dog is the best in the US. Throw in titles for the combined sports of other countries and the you can use "world"

Babe Ruth was a great baseball player, but put hockey skates on him or run a marathon :roll:

The debate for which dog is best will likely never be proven. Putting other games or spots is unsportsmanlike and does nothing positive for the dog games.

 

[Chad Engels]

Which dogs are best? Just ask two questions:

1. How many Field Trial washouts have gone on to become Master Hunters?

2. How many Hunt Test washouts have gone on to become Field Champions?

I'm not trying to say Farmer is not a great trainer, one of the best all-time for sure - so Farmer disciples don't stone me.

And what about some of the past greats?

Ole JT is a Guthrie fan and he knows that Guthrie is a Farmer disciple. He justs wants an autograph of a guy whose famous enough to have his number hanging on a little league fence....

Well I just figured that when you put my name in every post you write, certainly there must be some attraction there.

1. How many Field Trial washouts have gone on to become Master Hunters?

2. How many Hunt Test washouts have gone on to become Field Champions?

That criteria has less to do with who are the best dogs than any I've ever seen. There have been many dogs who one trainer "washed out" and another trainer picked up and made successful FT dogs out of them. Gimme a break!!!

This is the best thread ever.

How many FC's fail master tests? How many FC's get dropped by 1 point in the SRS hunt test series? How many FC's can't tie their shoes? How many FC's aren't stead to wing, shot and fall? How many FC's can't match the wing-speed velocity of an unladen sparrow?

to many people have Terrell Owens syndrome...

An FC can't carry a cocanut(coke E nut). Well maybe one, FC AFC Unladen African Swallow MH
