Someone should know how many Biewers there are registered in each club and how many different lines are out there. If there is just one club that is advocating breeding only Biewer to Biewer then they should have the answers. I would think that lots of research would need to be done before that decision is made. It might be helpful also studying how other breeds were developed. If you cut the gene pool off to soon then you could end up having genetic problems years down the line.
I can tell you right now, it is my opinion that the Biewer will never be recognized by AKC unless all the different clubs here in the U.S. can start getting along and start working for the better of the breed. I remember 35 years ago when I was showing St. Bernards I was a member of a St. Bernard club in Houston but there was also another St. Bernard Club and AKC would not sanction either club because the two clubs would not work together because the presidents of each club could not stand each other. People need to put aside there personal differences and work for the betterment of the breed. |
Yeah, I agree, there are too many different Biewer Club in America now, and it actually confuse people.
