Bryan 1,362 Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Anybody with an ounce of common sense knows the REAL reasons a dog is put up at open stud and that's purely to benefit the owner of that dog. If it's to help people out like you's are suggesting why charge people then, surely a free lining would be helping them out far more ???. It's all bollocks and I wonder how many of these people you's are suggesting got helped out went on to create top class lines off that one lining ?. Why have a good dog then ruin it's good name by putting it up for stud and lining shite with it only to create more shite and then it's all the dogs fault. We've all seen the affects of it on here over recent years. I think yourself and CorkyJohn are confusing open stud and stud fee. Open stud just means letting people breed off a dog. Price doesn't affect the outcome with the pups. Try to stop worrying about other peoples money and just think about terriers. CorkyJohn have you heard of the Cork dogs The General and The Blindman? (dogs from the white Cork line) They were both available for anyone to use ( and free!) Of course loads of shit was bred off them but they also produced the line thats still being bred today. The more those dogs were bred decades ago the more that's available for guys to breed off now. If the guys that originally had those dogs bred to one or 2 bitches there'd be nothing left of that line now. That's how lines die out. 1 Quote Link to post

WEDGEY 753 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I'm very interested in that line of terrier Bryan! I have a bitch here and I would like something from that line to use over her can you put me in contact or will I just try Facebook? Quote Link to post
CorkyJohn 808 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Not heard of them Bryan, again free use of stud is a grand gesture but all it does is encourage the peddlars IMO, free stud to the right bitches & owners sounds better 1 Quote Link to post

It should discourage peddlars as more litters around therefore less demand for pups...approved bitches were for studs that lads were afraid to stand over as they might throw shite and decrease stud values. 1 Quote Link to post
WEDGEY 753 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I understand that there is genuine lads all over trying to better what they have,just like myself! I would pay the right money to go to a top Dog but when someone's willing to hand you a free service it's then about trust not money,in my eyes PEDDLARS aren't welcome to that type of gift Quote Link to post

It makes me laugh when I see litters that the advertiser claims to have bred to keep a pup back but has 4 or 5 spare that he wants to sell. If there well bred why does he have to advertise them and if he only wanted to keep a pup back why not cull all the extras ?. 7 Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 My take on stud dogs is this .If a dog is good enough to warrant breeding from [and too many arnt ]then why would anyone feel the need to advertise that fact .The circles he moves within will contain enough bitches to sort him out for pups forever .If the dog is from a good line then no one and i mean no one is going to let him cover any bitch no matter its reputation unless its from related stock and then we are full circle back to mates known to the studs owner .IMO a stud from a good producing line will not improve a bitch from scatterbred stock and the only way to start a line is with line bred stock .Some will have done it reverse im sure but its hell of a gamble .Open stud means money to me,very transparent . 5 Quote Link to post
lucky 578 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Bang on foxdropper. Why would anyone want to put there dog up at open stud when it should be getting put back over close relatives. 2 Quote Link to post

A line has to start somewhere, can't be all linebred in the beginning. If you only breed to related bitches, then you don't know if your dog is a good stud dog. If you put him over a iffy bitch and he produces some good ones which are his stamp, then he's a good stud and cull hard... Edited March 19, 2014 by VOON Quote Link to post
