The 100 pups may seem like a great idea, but it does cause stud owners to breed females that should NOT be bred to have pups. In other words, I personally know a stud owner that was very selective on what he bred his stud too... Now at almost 8 years old, he will get his 100 pups. But had he bred every female that came his way, how many worthless pups would have been created in the process? I am smart enough to know that all crosses produce duds,.... But doesn't it make more sense to try your best not to do that?
I do believe people look at that list, then at the breeding... Then decide. But with the amount of stud dogs out there, the lesser known studs will never get a chance. And as soon as the go historical, they fall off forever. I'd much rather breed to a dog that has 50-60 pups on the ground and alot of nice dogs, than to a dog that has been bred to death to get their 100 nite chs... JMO
Part of my point exactly. If a hound has 80 pups on the ground and has 14 titled pups, where is he on the list in your eyes compared to the list now? Especially if he is bread to 5 or more females. Thake that example as hypothetical.
