BUT I feel is it nearly impossible to produce a show potential from generations of "in house" breeding unless you are seeing top of the line show pups now. The best go out for stud service also...look at the best peds... |
Pat,
How it was explained to me is that it takes 10 generations before the line becomes yours.
The other thing that was passed down to me, is that some never reach the experienced/exhibitor breeder stage and forever stay and the newbie stage.
As you stated, very rarely to you see Pastoral, Yorkboro, This Time, Exmoor, Rothby and they produce Champions consistently....Occassionaly the do outcross when they begin boxing theirselves in. But, then these people have been doing it for years.
