how i look at it, if we are lucky enough to get our hands on some good blood , its our duty not to f**k it up and thats the working side, i've had the same family of dogs since the early 80's i've lin

Good post mate .Not to undo it in any way but starting with the right stock is everything .You cannot put in what is not there in the first place .Ive no doubt some lads have turned round mediocre dog

Right this is my fathers method he had a lot of success for many many years with gamefowl and dogs .This mightn't be to everybody's to everybody's style so don't crucify me if you think its wrong ! He

 

What youve described is the basic start to a LINE,mate but what about a backup if this goes tits up .Smart lads have another underlying plan to fall back on should your stud not be what it is on paper ,dosnt gell with bitch or gets killed .I fully understand the need for knowledge but a little can be harmful .Better to spend time with a lad thats doing it ,look at his pedigree and see what worked .

listen my friend would you have the balls to speak to someone like you do face to face or do you just let insults flow of the computer, line breeding might be inbreeding with a plan to you but what most people think of that as grandfather to grandaughter or uncle to niece breeding where i am talking about intense inbreeding as in what they do with pit dogs, game fowl, the jersey cow , and as they intensely inbred the stock improves and yes as you say you do have to adapt if things start to go wrong but i cant talk to you anymore. you are the sort of person that thinks he is put on the earth to educate the world and cannot discuss a matter and has to resort to moronic shouting to get his point across. thanks f

 

 

Any time you fancy a dig we can discuss the matter mate .i have plenty to go at and ill even bring the dogs if your concerned about where we will put them .I will explain each dogs pedigree to you and how,why it was arrived at .If you are a bit dim i will tell you have no worries ,a spade is a spade after all.Its now clear from your posts that you know a bit more than i first gave you credit for .However knowing is only ever half the job ,putting it into practice is another as is culling what you know is a failure .What you failed to explain in your opening post was what you aimed to gain from such a breeding .Close matings are still part of linebreeding so i stand by that .Having spent 27 years breeding and working black dogs ,which incidentally are nothing whatsoever to do with Gould,i am in a position to lecture .Some will listen ,some wont but either way i will tell it as i see it and if the world does get educated along the way then all well and good . There is way more to creating an ongoing strain than inbreeding as you put it and i look forward to hearing your future plans ,that would be your plans not those of others .You speak of intense inbreeding improving the stock which is so far from the truth to actually be a lie .Its what to do with your close inbreds that would be lost on you i feel ..YIS-FD

I've only just read through this lot and believe me there are a lot of half truths and urban myths about breeding stock of any sort, it is called linebreeding when it works and inbreeding when it doesn't, I've been breeding decent working terriers for 40yrs now and it really is a case of "suck it and see", when thinking of breeding off a certain dog or bitch we have to look firstly at its working ability, is it that good ?? supposing the answer is yes then you need something at least as good as the one you have, if that other dog or bitch is related then you have to consider 2 different things, "genotype" and "Phenotype", Phenotype is easy because that's its physical charactoristics, ie ; size, shape, etc, then there are the Geno or inherited genetic plus's and faults, if you breed too close you not only double these good genetic points but any bad points as well , the Plummer terrier is suffering many of these now with "perthes syndrome" and internal organ failure, many of our K C registered breeds suffer from this due to small gene pools and breeding off dogs known to carry both types of faults,when starting off a line or strain you need to start with the best dogs that carry no known genetic or physical faults but are also good working stock, there are some very good books that explain genetics but they are boring as f*ck and need to be read and reread until it goes in if you are serious about breeding decent healthy working progeny, we can all breed the odd one in a litter that's excellent but a "one off", it looks and works well but will not necessarily reproduce the stock if the genes aren't there, even after weighing up everything described there are no guarantee's of success, WM
