what a wonderful topic!  just my opinion, but we should always strive for 
"great" when breeding.  we may not always get it in each litter but it should 
be 
the purpose for creating that litter.  when you get a "great" one, it is a 
life-changing experience, as many on this list well know, and a lucky one.  
breeding isn't an exact science and you always hope for the best but when you 
actually get it - oh my, there's NOTHING like it.  my 3X select ch silstra's 
charlie babbitt was an incredible animal, not just in the show ring, but in 
every 
way.  her son, skater, is as well.  it's like getting everything you want in 
one 
little package; you see it, the world sees it.  an amazing feeling and 
experience.  it also makes you strive for nothing less.
