well said, no doubt it raises percentages, but the topic is saying genetics alone make every aspect of a dog except the handling and trash breaking which is just not true and only someone new to raising pups could think it is in my opinion, yes there is a better chance of genetics making a outstanding dog opposed to just a good dog... but does anyone really believe that genetics alone can make, train, and finish an exceptional dog consistently without any training whatsoever besides trash breaking??? thats the point im tring to make and keep gettin off track

The good handfull of exeptional working dogs I have had; hog dog,beagle rabbit dogs,coon dogs hound or cur,bulldogs and protection dogs all had one thing in common ...good genetics/breeding from good/proven dogs before them and they all also had one other thing in common....they made you look good,all you did was piont them in the right direction and and give a little guidance per say. Not much "training" involved...
