Maybe true, but as time goes on, a titled dog out of titled dogs is what is worth a good amount of money when it is all said and done. With the absolute glut of pups available at any one given time why would you not choose one with titled parents if given the choice and they were the same price.
Lets face it, it takes A LOT of time, and money to turn a PR dog into a Grand Night. If you put all of this effort in and you want to stud or breed the dog people are always gonna look at that pedigree before they make a decision to breed or buy a pup. If they can get all grand for the same price as a pup out of your dog that isn't, you arn't going to make back much of your investment.
If all you want is a dog to hunt, then raise and train whatever you want. If you want to raise and train a pup to sell or make money off of, be sure you know what is behind it before you even think about buying one because if it isn't all grand, it just lost a pile of value
