I do appreciate your advice, SoCal, and I truly think that you are right on the money with your thoughts on the subject. Personally, when I read what "breeders" say, I get the feeling they are breeding for show-quality dogs. I understand the importance of maintaining a high standard in the breed and not breeding irresponsibly just to make money, so I can understand why some breeders would say DON'T breed a female with long legs, or with "uncommon" coloring. But, as long as my girls and their mate are healthy with no genetic disorder, I personally see no reason NOT to reproduce. Let the stones fly, but nonetheless, that is my opinion. You simply confirmed it.
Again, I appreciate your advice, breeder or not.
