Makes no difference how far back they can be traced most dogs can be traced back if records of the original dogs have been kept There still be no better bred than anyone else’s dogs that do a bit it’s all on what the pairing put together can actually do an how old they are an how much experience they have the rest is irrelevant an that’s if the pairing gells Quote Link to post

Obviously that line has jelled as I don’t think the old boy who produces them would of kept them true to type.But I think if I wanted a certain breed I wouldn’t expect other things in the mix as I don’t like bullxs or saluki blooded dogs.You get a dog to use for the job you intend in all breeds good or bad but it’s your choice what you want. 1 Quote Link to post

OK, but if the beddy it self in pure form not of working stock no more, maybe you have to out x to get the beddy back on track, if you see what I mean. Like any ped breed really. If it lost size, temperament etc, sometimes it nerds to be done to improve the breed. Maybe out x then to a working wheaten then, if not a jack or pat, somthing deff got to be Done to save the breed.

They already have fell and lakey blood which is good enough ?and few idiots have used. Border which was a big mistake ? Like russel would. Be ask any serious folk working beddys ? Nowt wrong with good stain russels as they are ? Quote Link to post
Shadow100 1,066 Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 I think breedings important to an extent but people look too much in to it, a dogs grandparents can’t run for it, and how many lines is there where the men can honestly say they’ve tested every dog fully and only bred best to best since the very beginning? Barely any i bet. I’ve had dogs with extensive fancy pedigrees going back 30+ years, and the best dog I’ve ever owned was just a scatterbred lurcher x lurcher that cost £100. 1 Quote Link to post

Is you know what your getting before you get it pretty much, scatter bred dog could turn out like anything , a lot variation an some folk don’t want that, an there is deffo few folk out there with tested lines an can make all dogs grafter an used My question as always been when people start going on about lines is when they say it’s great great granddaughter an the dog there breeding to is only 5yrs old that would make the dam 2 with one yrs work behind it not very tested Quote Link to post
