Default so whats the need for show dogs?

i dont like the idea of havin to show off dogs as a matter of "my dogs beautiful, he has to win or i wont be happy"... whats wrong with these people that do feel the need to show their dog? I think that its like having a little child going to the beauty pageant and its really, a massive insicurity on the owner/dad/mother side.... what do you think?

I dont show dogs, nor do I have any interest! but these people, well most anyways, do it because they want to improve and better their breed. Which is good, i think. But I realy have no interest, as I adore my mutts!:mrgreen:

Yo I'm not a huge dog fan but this is how I see it:Suppose I like dogs, but I need a hobby, too!So I breed dogs, trying to make the best performing dog. The fastest, the nicest to look at, the most intelligent and communicative, etc.Then there's no need for a nice car, nice TV, or nice computer since I already have one thing I'm really proud of: my dog. Because it's a living companion for human beings. And especially one you have trained or chosen, or paid another owner for.If I ever get into wanting a dog, I'll just get a top performer. Or a guard dog. Which I can train, like that bad guy in one of those James Bond movies, where he throws a piece of steak in front of them, waits several minutes, then snaps his fingers and the dogs go on and eat it. I want one of those. That'd be totally awesome.

I think dogs like attention no matter what. They like to perform for each other and for humans. If everything didn't scare the bejesus out of my dog he would like all the attention. It is that or hunting for drugs in airports, racing after balls, or going for leashed walks. It's a dogs life.

I have show dogs, but if they don't win it is not a big deal. First and foremost they are my companions, showing is just something that we can both enjoy on weekends. My dogs love to travel and show, and they get so excited when they win, but they still have a lot of fun when they don't. I love it when they win, but I love seeing how excited that they get when they see some of their "show buddies" and how they love to show off for the judge.I think that it is horrible that people only love their dog when it wins, but they are in the minority. Most of the people that show dogs treat their dogs like children whether they win or not. I wish the people that think the only time their dog is good is when it wins should not be allowed to show (or have dogs shown).

I think it is another desperate attempt by rich people to show how much money they can blow. They have nothing better to do with their idle hands that they keep creating more ways to cure their boredom. In this case, on showing off their dogs.
