breeding Very true..we all had to start somewhere...but we don't all have to start at the same place. I wasted 10 yrs. trying to turn a "sow's ear into a silk purse". Sounds harsh, but it is the truth. The biggest mistake a novice makes is buying a male first...buy the best bitch you can afford, go to the best stud and go from there...don't lock yourself into a one stud while you are building a foundation of bitches. Some of the top winners were from breeders who bought stud service..plus, there are many show breeders who will help a novice improve. Many say they can't deal with snobbish show breeders..I am not interested in becoming a buddy, I am buying the services of a quality stud to improve my bloodline. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do..LOL
PS...I was going to name my Jodi, Sherrie Lynn, but the month before she arrived I told my husband she was not a Sherrie..she was Jodi..whatever a Jodi is!! LOL |
