hrpayne--if you are serious about wanting a serious discussion--I suggest you go to the forum introductions and make an introduction post. Tell us about yourself.
Read through the forum--you will see that there are many members who breed, who show, who work their dogs, and yes, who have companion dogs. You are not the only one who has knowledge in those areas.
If you want a serious discussion--try approaching it differently. Or, yes, you will continue to get discussions about treeing woodles.
