I agree that it takes a lot of studying to make a responsible breeding 
decision.  I think there are many breeders who don't know the dogs in their own 
American pedigrees very well.  Sometimes the information one needs is difficult 
to acquire.

Truer words were never spoken, Mike.  Part of the problem with using  the 
German dogs is not the dogs themselves - it's that there are very few people  
in this country who really know the European pedigrees well enough and far  
back enough to make an educated breeding decision.  I've run into quite a  
few folks who think they have the knowledge but less than a handful who 
truly  do.

Your job  as a breeder is to understand your bitches pedigree in great 
detail(the good  and the bad) covering all aspects of the breed and standard. 
Then use that  same scrutiny when choosing her mates, complimenting her 
strengths, overcoming  her weaknesses both phenotypically and genotypically, 

To do this you  must understand both her and the studs pedigrees in depth(a 
minimum of five  generations, and their litter mates if possible) .
