Yes i get it on the use of the sire... the main reason we are keeping in our family a male from our actual sire, who is actually very little but that is not the reason we like him. But being little he has such a hard time breeding ... kkkk ...
some days i think he will die in the middle of so much "looooviiing"...kkkk
"99% of the time he produces his sire, who was around 7 pounds "
That is the part i did not understand???
What do you mean?
Thanks as always ...

OK! 50% of the genes are contributed by sire and dam. 25% by grandsire and grand dam......12% by great grand sire and dam.
It's a gift when you find a stud that reproduces himself. My boy has done it twice....the rest he's produced his sire's size. Now there are his attributes that have been passed down to him via Pastoral, This Time and Firacres (all lthese lines are pretty much intertwined) Lines......such as showmanship, head carriage, movement, temperament, health, intelligence and topline as well as that gorgeous head.....that he does pass down to his offspring.
