Like I said many are up for debate...look at the champion pedigee question.

How many champions should be in a pedigree before breeding..? Are we looking at a 3 gen ped or a 10 gen ped? Some do not breed unless the dog/bitch is a champion, others are good with nice champs in 3 gens..others go further..is there one correct answer..NO.

The question about fading puppy syndrome..can not be answered. The exact cause of FPS is like Sudden Infant death..there are speculations, but when a pup starts to fade there is not always "seeable cause"..even with an autopsy.

How long is gestation...no "one" answer..some come at 56 others at 65, but 63 is what we base it on..
No doubt many of the questions that gave you thought are open to opinion...and averages.
