MAJOR pet peeve

Well all some may know, I breed the fuzzies again and as before, Im starting to notice that same problem I had before I stopped breeding. My pet peeve..

HOLLANDS BEING SHOWN/SOLD AS FUZZIES EVEN THOUGH THERE 100% HOLLANDS!

As u can tell, that REALLY bugs me! I hate going to a show, working my butt off to get some nice fuzzies from nice lines, purebred obviously and own generations, then some fuzzy knockoff comes in and tries to compete against purebreds. Yes I have definately seen some in my time, in either AB or BC. Also I am well aware fuzzies came from hollands but there was a few mixups in getting there but the point is there purebreds! They will always produce true well coated fuzzy lops going with the standard of a melon body and large head..showing no neck as the standard says as well as the 30 point wool coat, half wool half adult hair. If u wanna argue with me go ahead and post but the point is thats the worst thing about showing cause u work so hard and some knockoff comes in and tries to be shown. What a sad story. As far as Im concerned, they should either be sold as pets OR to fuzzy breeders in hopes of producing purebreds in the longrun. Yes I will admit also I had/are a couple fuzzies with holland in background but does it look like I show them? No because there bodies do not go well with the standard as hollands and fuzzies are actually TOTALLY different! Ok now that I am done ranting..majorly I might ad..lol.. I hope people understand the situation in my shoes when showing fuzzies and think about the next time they sell FUZZY hollands. Thanks for listening! I will post later sometime next week..maybe even new pics!
