Glyn ,would you not have done anything different from your tree ,in hindsight to keep size up or was not an issue .i e would you have brought in an outcross sooner .

thieves,digging to dogs dead etc can make you have to re think your plan

[Squirrel_Basher 17,100]

I always prefer a stud to cover all bitches but just my way .That way everthing is double bred .b

Lots of plans that didn't come about, would of love to of had more pups from one bitch but lost her to ground so i used her half sister , but the nature of the beast makes you change your plans, luckily when i started most lines where only a few gens down from the masters blood line ,fairly happy with how they are still going now , if i had another 50 years to breed and work them i think i'd be getting some where

i paid a hell of a lot of money for my first bitch pup , i was lucky she proved to be a very good worker and a fair old brood

was she line bred or just worker to worker

So for theories sake you would have such bitch and aquire a stud from another line bred worker to worker source and you have a basic start not that I would don't have the room
