Bored with information I have no interest in.

I love being one of the firsts to lay eyes on some REALLY GREAT DOGS who could be tomorrows legends.

I love being privy to OUTSTANDING BREEDINGS behind the scenes.

I love contact with others of EQUAL PASSION, below or surpassing my knowledge of canines or felines.

Otherwise, I respectfully request being removed from any and all Private Messages not pertaining to the three subjects above.

If you're bored, come over and bath some dogs for me.

3 potential boys..

1 has what Wendy needs. Length of neck, refinement of the head. Pedigree is OK.

1 has the pedigree to die for. 12 generation COI is like .67%. This would be SOOO an out cross, so much value down the road as far as working toward eliminating the popular sire of 3 decades ago that has worked its way into just about every pedigree available. Dog is OK, will not offer any huge improvements but also no detriments...one hopes.

1 is an outstanding political move. Good dog, Good pedigree, nothing radical, would produce nice puppies, and be advantageous politically as well.

Which one do you pick?

I feel you're poking fun at me, but with the limited information, I'll give a poke back.

Definately NOT the political move. You may be labeling this "political" because of a ranking or recent National Specialty winner, who may become the next popular stud and tighten the very thing you're trying to get away from in the next few years. You don't seem to sing his praises with the bitch in question.

The fantastic pedigree is only a good choice if he is line/inbred to produce the features your bitch lacks.

I would go with the male who possessed the things your bitch lacks, if she herself has at least one parent possessing the same. Like to like, breeds like.

Of course this is assuming these are the only three males available closely suiting your needs.

The ideal mating would be to breed her to a tightly inbred, health tested, male who consistantly produces the length of neck and the refinement you desire, without the heavy influence of the individual you want to breed away from.
