I agree...hover rednose does make a good point...if the line is good but the dog does not reproduce...rather than destroy what has already been gained...breed to the second best and hopefully there will be some good to great pups...I wouldn't make that dog the hub of my breeding program...
Here is where I am going to have to disagree with you my friend. If you have a good dog from a great litter who's ancestors were all good from that family and he or she has proven to be very PREPOTENT and you don't make him the hub of your program....
But hey like I said I am a novice to the hog dog world, still trying to learn and hear all of you more experienced guys theories and ideas. I have an open mind, I like what a lot of you have to say. Thanks for sharing.
