Interesting question and I know some folks who feel the same as this person.?
At almost every AB show I have shown, I have had someone come up and ask me if
they could breed to my dog.? Most are pet people, although I have been
approached by folks with good German working lines.? Now, I don't consider
myself an elitist, but I do care about what I produce.? I ask questions about
pedigrees, health and the reasons they want to breed.? If I don't get the right
answers or the person seems ignorant, C-YA!??
Some combinations can work well, but if we?are to continue to improve our
Breed, we must use discretion.? Breeding to anyone who will put up a stud fee
is not discretion.

So I'm talking to this breeder yesterday about stud dogs. He told me
that he would breed his champion black and tan stud to a white bitch
just for the stud service. He also said he'd breed pet quality bitches
who had a good pedigree to his studs. I asked him if he'd breed a blue
to his dog. He said he'd have to think about it. He commented to me
that times are tough right now with the economy being bad so it wouldn't
be easy to turn away a $500 stud fee. This same breeder once said to me
that the dogs have to earn their keep. He's not raising and feeding
dogs just because they're his pets. If nothing else, he's honest. So
what do you think, should a stud dog be bred to just about any bitch
because of the stud fee? Where do you draw the line? Don't we have a
responsibility to breed the best quality litters that we can according
to the standard? Barbara
