The smart people in this breed, or any breed, fully understand that the success of one specific stud dog comes from well planned and well executed breedings. To deny that is absurd. This group of owners, co-owners, handlers, they had the right dogs AND bitches, right situations and they managed this successfully, and kudos to them for that. What should not be implied is that the rest of the breeders aren't doing things right because they haven't achieved the same amount of success. There are many good dogs out there.
