leethedog 3,071 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Just the newbie again so if a line is kept for 30+ years how.many times would new.blood be needed to stop deformations happening in pups because I can't amagine such a line is only bred from every 10 years there for wouldn't such a line be far removed from said famous God dog that it was Bearley related I'm probably wrong just trying to fathom out how it's done.

Had nothing to do with the reputation of one dog. More on the breeding really Quote Link to post
