A dog will produce three types of puppies, as a rule...better then himself, himself and less then himself (same with a bitch) Sooooo, if you use average or poor pet quality for breeding, what do you get most of the time...not fair to the breed..IMO.
The only reason to breed, is to breed to the standard as closely as humanly possible. Improve with each litter...
If I study the piano for 5,10 yrs, do I want my first song to sound the same as the last one..I hope not... | I agree.
