IMO..Rarely, can a breeder own one stud...no stud can have all the qualities needed to compliment every bitch you want to breed him with...
Start with a bitch, buy top of the line stud service..keep the best bitches and at some point buy a stud you really like or have produced yourself.
Buy the stud first and you are locked into using him whether you get what you want or not...or you place him and look for another...you will be looking for bitches to breed with him and that is not easy...own a quality bitch and you have your choice of many breeders studs..no limits...
I have never owned a number one champion or ever will, but I have bought stud service from them...
JMO ..but I think 2 quality studs are the least you can get by with..3 worked for me...sometimes the genes just do not click, no matter the pedigree. |
