While I am not into pageantry I do believe in accountability.  Showing our dogs allows us the opportunity for outside opinions on our dogs, granted it is a Judges personal opinion and some of them have Judged very few Tibetan Terriers.  Another mark of our quality is the evaluation of our dogs by Mentors in the breed and other long time dog breeders.   I count the opinion of Mentors and other long time dog breeders as my primary and showing as a secondary input into our breeding program.  These evaluations as well as the temperament and health testing help us to gain a full picture of our breeding program.  A dog must be looked at in it's entirety not individual parts and pieces.
