Could it be that many of the bitches had better structural attributes than
the sire?Back when I started in dogs..you took a bitch and bred upward..you
didn't take a bitch and hoped she carried the load. Ideally you took a well
bred bitch and bred her to a dog who had proven that he could produce with
bitches that were well bred of average quality. The dog was usually
superior to or equal to the quality of the bitch. I can think of no other
venue of animal husbandry where the female of the species is bred to a
lesser male...what usually happens is any quality is passed on through the
daughters..not the sons..perhaps this why so many can't find many dogs to
breed to???? Just a thought and a bit of an observation. Christine

CHRISTINE; RIGHT ON. YEARS AGO I WROTE AN ARTICLE FOR THE GSD REVIEW ON
HOW CERTAIN SIRES BECOME NOTABLE FOR PRODUCING ONLY OUTSTANDING DAUGHTERS, WHO
IN TURN CAN SOMETIMES PRODUCE MANY OUTSTANDING PROGENY OF BOTH SEXES WHEN
PROPERLY MATED.. IN HORSES, SUCH A SIRE IS REFERRED TO AS A 'BROODMARE SIRE'..
THE GERMANS ARE VERY QUICK TO ELIMINATE FROM TOP HONORS ANY STUD DOG WHICH
CANNOT PRODUCE TOP SONS AS WELL AS DAUGHTERS..
THEY ACTUALLY SHOW AN OBVIOUS STRONG PREFERENCE FOR STUD DOGS WHO PRODUCE
TOP SONS AND PERHAPS ONLY AVERAGE DAUGHTERS.... BARB WILLIAMS
