If you have a litter of ten and cull 9 out of the ten guess what his DNA is the same as the others whether or not that the dog can or can't be a good dog or the best out there but he can reproduce what was culled.

I agree...if culling 9 pups out of ten from a litter...then more than likely it is in the DNA...someone who wants to breed better dogs with a higher percentage of pups making the cut...then that person needs to look for well bred dogs to start out with...

I would rather breed to a cull that comes from a long line of great hunting dogs than to one great dog out f a long line of culls...

more than likely the cull from a long line of great hunting dogs will produce a good percentage of good pups...I wouldn't breed to that cull a second time but I would focus more on his offspring...


on the other hand that one great dog from a long line of culls will throw a high percentage of culls...it would take years to clean up that gene pool...so why not start with a good line of dogs...


   

 Very well said and I very much agree!!!
