Personally I see trends in breeds that don't seem to make the breed more
"popular" to the general public - such as the newer type German Shepard that
crouches in the rear end and the changes in the Irish Setter prior to
that. Somehow the breeds morph into new "trendy" forms and I'm not sure
how that occurs - I certianly don't think it's a preference coming from the
general public - except perhaps by the overdue influence of certain
breeders?
