I have to say i agree with this. Just because a dog has a ton of champions in its lines doesn't mean the dog is worthy to be shown or bred. Genetics are a trickly thing...great dogs don't always produce great offspring. You shouldn't decide to breed a dog based on its pedigree alone...the dog must prove that itself measures up and is an excellent example of the breed.
