I love the fact that you can get well contrasted replies without feeling like a unintelligent hobbiest/keeper. Much love and respect to you guys on this board for your info and candor.Listen, you can favor "The Ladder System". You can jump right into OWs. It's about what you can be capable of. I absolutely "want" an OW, OBTs are beautiful. But... I have a crazy huskie, 3 curious children, and a hedge hog. Those outside factors trump my "wants". Simply  put they are more important. Everyone is diverse, you can do what you feel is right for you.</blockquote>
