I can not recall without counting how many are in a 5 gen...60 maybe??? You see there is more to it then CH in front of a name...you can have a breeder with a champion stud and from that they get quality bitches used in the line...perhaps a stud who is pointed by not finished...that accounts for some of the non-champion dogs/bitches..

If the 12 champions in the 4th and 5th, not so good...the first few gens can be pet quality now and not show..or the champions can be in generation 2 and 3, 4 (the offspring is the first gen) that would be 16 I think and if 12 were champions, that would be a terrific ped...it is not so cut and dry to look at the numbers only...where, is more improtant IMO
