Aint nobody said yaw gotta buy them papered dogs. I know a guy who wont register his dogs, but he keeps a notebook with what dogs were crossed with what, may not be registered, but they r papered so to speak
Better set up a pay attention when ya run across folks like you just described.
That notebook paper ink had held more great dogs than any stamped and recorded documents.
Exactly, he dont like all the bs that goes registering dogs but he keeps maticulous records of his breedings and it aint for bragging rights, its so he knows which dogs produced the best dogs n which dogs not to cross over again.
True dogmanship at its best. Keeping it pure and untainted. Doesn't get any better in my book.
