This will probably get me in trouble with some, but again, it's what I
believe. And I believe..."It's what's up front that counts!" In other
words, I believe that the sire and the dam are approximately 80% of the
resulting litter, and the grand sire and dam another 15% of the results, and
remaining 5%...credit whomever. Going back 5 generations to see what's what
(again in my opinion) is a waste of time. To be even more controversial, I
believe that usually the dam is 60% of the progeny and the sire 40%. (
That's of the 80%) The better the bitch, the better the litter. A hundred
years ago I did a research project using the Red Books to prove that theory.
I proved it, but again it's common sense.
Lloyd Brackett said, "Let the sire of the sire be the grandsire of the dam"
( or visa versa) which is: linebreed 2-3. I did that at least 25 times and
I still believe that it's what's up front that counts.
OK, said my piece. I won't be at work tomorrow to read the replies but I
bet they'll be fun.
