Since you freely admit to knowing nothing about breeding, why would you make a judgement on whether or not Toby would produce gorgeous puppies?
It's one thing to be nice and compliment someone on the pet they love, but this would be like me giving someone advice on the stock market. I could tell them that I admired the leather portfolio they carried, but wouldn't have the slightest idea about what was involved with the contents of it.
Those of us who do this, take it very seriously since we understand the ramifications involved with making poor choices and bear the weight of responsibility for our actions. I don't give advice lightly and although I respect your right to have an opinion, you may want to consider the implications of expressing it in this manner. If you're sure he will have gorgeous pups then you should be evaluating litters for the rest of us too?
I don't mean to sound harsh here, please understand it is just hard to see glib postings on a subject that many of us have devoted years to doing to the best of our ability. jmo
