Several months ago I had the chance to lease my bitch out for a litter. Don't get me wrong I liked the male and he would have probably produced nicely. Only thing is his sre and grand sire wer both dead of bloat before they were 4,. Free is nice but alive is nicer. and my girl has health and longevity behind her. Bob Neiman / Walled Lake, Mich.

To keep the style and type you want, you may have to go back to the "Well". Many stud dogs are bred to because of titles; ie, GV or Select. Breed to the dogs you have seen and the progeny that they have produced from different bitches, not just a few and from varied bloodlines. The "Good One's" will be dominant in their type and style. If they are dying or died to young, find out what they died from and why they died. If you are not willing to take the risk vs. the reward, then that's your decisions.
