I will  not mention names. What I did hear was, that back about 20 years 
ago a well  known handler had said that in order to get a better mover, every 
3rd  generation you need to put a spook into your breeding program. My 
question is;  if this was actually said and practiced, did this theory prove to 
be true? Was  the impact on movement worth the impact on  temperament?



I do remember Lamar saying they move best when they, "move on  the wings of 
fear".  I also realize he said a lot of stuff.  I prefer  a good mover, and 
a sound dog.
 
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
