Since I'm the man who bred Grip I think it appropriate that I answer the question about why would we breed this cross. At that time, nearly 30 years ago, there were very few pits available over here a

There is a need for a book covering the trials and the Irish strong dog , I enjoyed Darcy,s book , but I feel it only scratched the surface .

First hand accounts from those that were there , in depth analysis and comprehensive and clear breeding historys are whats needed .

Sharpen your pencil Bolio mate.

It sounds good in theory Stanleigh but most of the old timers are gone and the info along with them. It was a bygone era and the men involved sought no publicity so I wont either. Can you just imagine the upsurge of breedings that would be made using untested stock and all claiming lineage lifted straight from the pages of such a book? We've all heard the sales pitch of this or that modern day dog that was "never lifted at a trial", but many don't realise that's because many of these dogs were never run in trials.

There are older, more experienced men who would be far better qualified to document the history of those times than me, but I doubt they ever will.

"most of the old timers are gone & the info along with them ".

Be a shame for "all" them old timers to pass & leave the history writing to those that never even seen a trial. So much is lost already,as you say.

I understand your thoughts & reasons...............................unfortunately.
