I have what is considered the best stud line of sussex here on the SC and I have to admit they are not a patch on once was good quality sussex these days they are small, poor type and stance, pure pet quality but still are shown. I think our only chance now is to import to get quality sussex again

Wouldn't it be good to go back in time and be able to save the sussex from the destruction they went through. Very sad to see the sub pet quality of today compared with what was true sussex

The shame of it all is that not only has type been lost but also the utility characteristics.
