I also have never seen Dee say breeding a 10month old dog is good, but then I haven't really checked either. Has she said so? If so, I'm very disappointed. And since I'm an accountant by trade, if your mentor produced 100 champions in 40 years, I'm assuming she must have produced a whole lot more than 100 dogs to get those champions? Here I go with my assuming again... lets say most litters have 4 dogs just to make the math easy. I don't really know myself but most of the show breeders say they "hope" to have one good dog to show from the litter and lets assume she did and also assume she also finished each of those, based on that, would it not mean that your mentor has produced something in the neighborhood of 400 dogs total to get those 100 champions? Now 400 dogs in 40 years totals 10 dogs per year. If Dee has produced 40 dogs in 4 years, isn't that also 10 dogs per year? Again, lots of assumptions on my part but just playing devils advocate.... |
The 40 dogs is just what Dee stated Ceeby produced, not sure of Ceeby's age? So I am sure Dee has produced more than just the pups Ceeby has sired! As for breeding a 10 month old, Dee DID NOT say that, it has been made public!
