luckily there are only 5 breeders here in the netherlands.this is not always a positive thing if you think of inbreeding. but most breeders use dogs that are imported or in other countries. there are almost no cross breeds here. the breed is also not very known here. the thing that surprised me when i looked at the diffrent dogs in america is the diversity that is seen. colors that are not permitted here, ears and tails that are not as the breed standard suggests and noses that are really long compared to our bostons. when i read the breed standard of america i noticed that the standard doesn't vary from ours. how can it be that there are bt that have a pedigree and vary so much in appearance?
