I don't know about his background or whether he has any "red" in it either but I emailed my breeders to ask some questions. So I'm basically getting the impression that I shouldn't breed him for several reasons. Firstly, there's a huge chance that I could lose the personality of my Harley that I love so much. Secondly, his health could be in jeapardy. Thirdly, bc he might not be of high enough standards and might not have the best background. |
I think you're thinking this through in a very sound way. I especially appreciate your concern that his personality will change. That's a very real probability and I'm impressed that you're that concerned about your relationship with him more than anything else. Good for you!
I wanted to apologize to you personally for the way your simple question evolved into a spitting match. People have very strong feelings about this.
