I'll agree to disagree then.
My pet Dobe is not the same as my pet Minpin, who simply 'looks different' than one another.
Surely, they are not working dogs nor are they from working lines, but they have characters though not working drive of their forebears.
I am NOT advocating turning the CSV into a soft companion breed..
Just merely musing.
