Not snobby!! If you have a purebred, and breed, it's very important to measure yourself against the breed standard, which is ideally what dog shows do.
All my little guys are champions. Not my bigger ones. Did you show him yourself or use a handler?
I was the absolutely worst handler in the world and couldn't have gotten a championship on a Westminster best in show winner. Presentation is not my strong suit, and my own gait is very poor which detracted from the dog's. My hind legs are set too close together, and I'm cowhocked. :(
