Why must owners of a TRD often act as the primary educator and advocate for the breed?

Answer

There is less general knowledge about them, leading to potential misidentification in rescue.

Because the breed is uncommon, there is limited general knowledge about them, meaning owners must be prepared to educate others, including shelter staff, about their unique needs and characteristics.
