I wonder what kind of dogs we would all be hunting today if the ole men the pioneers of old/founders of breeds never gave it much thought back then and just bred dogs best to best never caring about heritage, genetics, gene pools are family blood?
Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!
I don't know how much thought that they put into genetics back then but i do know that they culled like a mo fo! People couldn't afford to feed a dog, it had to earn its keep. That alone created some really good dogs. Then when the economy grew and it was fashionable to have a dog as a family pet and everyone wanted puppies for their kids to play with, thats when the gene pool went to crap....IMO
Preach on sister!!!
