Since i have gotten into the Durrer line, who is known for coat and colour, mine have improved a lot in that area with very nice pups.
I would not use a line that has red leg anywhere within 5 generations of the pedigree.
Blast away, I work with far too many 30 year + quality show breeders and follow as they say. |
Why in the world would I blast? You know your line well enough to judge what it needs and doesn't need. After I've been breeding for 30 years I doubt I will need something as extreme as a redleg either. Breeding Roxie was a decision I made to help me establish my line with stronger legs and cartilage since Yorkies now seem plagued with these weaknesses. I have a little gal coming that is out of Durrer lines as well.
