Jessy,

Learning time again....Culling is a common word used by show breeders....it is not derrogatory.....it means assessing your litter for your show quality....not that the litter isn't beautiful....but, one, just maybe one has that extra "I've got what it takes and I dare you not to put me up look"....

Show Breeders that have been in this for countless number of years will tell you that they consider themselves very blessed if they get 1 possible show dog in every 6 litters.....2 It's a jackpot......and they get down on their knees and give thanks......dramatic, but oh so true.
