What is it you want to know? Read posts 47 & 65.

I took a look at both pedigrees and so Rothby several generations back.

When studying a pedigree, remember it is a shorthand document for breeders. In breeding if parents contribute 50% of the genes and grandparents 25% and great grandparents only 12%, anything past 3rd generations isn't contributing anything. That is unless the a particular dog appears several times within the pedigree (meaning close linebreeding)
