Yes, and breeds that adhere to European standards as opposed to AKC (and whoever else uses heir standards, like CKC) seem to be better as well. For instance I was looking at a lot of doberman breeders, and learned a lot about the breed. A European doberman is bred quite differently - more for 'work' as in trainability, while the American kind is more for show - so it has become a 'softer' breed, more of a house pet than a training dog.
