Food for thought

but this is how it has been in any vocation or you can call it a law of nature...out of 100 bmc breeders you will have 20 above average breeders and of that 20 you will have 4 great breeders...

you will have 20 below average and the rest fall in the middle some a little on the higher side of the average scale and some on the lower end of the average scale...

not only that but you have to look at how much experience the breeders have for what they work their dogs on but those averages still stand even in the work place when looking at human performance in all job families...I see it as a law of nature...

but speaking of experience the 20 percent rule applies in all levels of experience and performance...so back then when people relied on their dogs to round up the livestock, protect the chickens, hunt with the master to catch rabbits and game for the master (who valued every shot), or dogs that also bay it or treed the game, and these dogs had to perform or be culled...so the level of experience from those folks that relied on these dogs was definitely way above what we have because the times and technology has changed and it is not mandatory that we have such a dog because we do it mainly for sport and pleasure and is not a necessity...those folks were way above us in knowing what a good dog was and the 20 percent rule applies to them as well but at a higher level of performance...
