Forgive me for hearing the story differently than you
I've no doubt you do and didn't mean to imply otherwise. But for many people that is not true.

I was pointing out that the concern over "fads", and you're statement that those dogs weren't fads but true GSDs which is what started the whole RinTinTin/Strongheart tangent in the first place, is a very real and problematic issue. Because many, many people, especially those new to dogs or new to a particular breed do not see the difference. They think Collies are all Lassie and Saints are all Beethovan and GSDs are all Rintys and Stronghearts and Jerry Lees.
