Breeding Better Dogs 101...

Yes to be a breeder of a line are lines of dogs does not happen over nite. 20 yrs invested and you are just getting warmed up. Yes also back in the day you are right we had a network of friends and family that dogs where sent out just to keep the dogs close to home. Lord be with the man that let one of our family dogs out. It took me years and years to realise a family of dogs cannot reach its full producing potential without some help from another family of dogs. It's only in reason to figure out why and how. Lines of dogs go stale no matter how great they are over time being bred over and over and over it just stands to reason this is the only thing that can happen over time. A breeder that is not willing to adjust to what his dogs and line are telling him is a breeder on the decline Along with his line. I have seen folks get a holt of some old stale inbred lines of dogs bred great and true but stale from no new refreshing blood to let it breath then a rookie comes along and breeds his scatter bred from hell and back dog but a great dog at what he does and Boom he gets famous lol and a new line of dogs is born. Don't BS yourself it sure has happened. To each his on man . Do it how ever you want nothing wrong with that but if you should run into a backlash of just par dogs you might want to reflect back on these breeding post.
