If a dog man or woman have an eye for a good dog and have established a top line of hunting dogs over the years which have been line bred and inbred for 5 or 6 generations...and they are consistently producing good pups and each litter seems to always have a couple of outstanding dogs...
So why is it that he or she can do this that many will say it can’t be done?
It is probably just normal for these people because he or she has an established line of dogs...and they only breed within their family of dogs most of the time...also they only breed the very best within that family...
The very best start well and don’t need to be fed lots of tracks to make a good dog...to take that dog to his highest potential then hunt them more...that’s how top athletes do it to stay on top...the organization does not waste their time on average players...
If you have to feed lots of tracks or wait 12 months before the pup hunts then we should expect the same from the offspring...at least we would be gravitating in that direction...
Getting back to the family of top producing dogs within their bloodline...one male wins a world championship and now there is a long line of females waiting to be bred to this world champion...when he is bred within his family he produces a high percentage of good dogs...but when bred to many different females from many different bloodlines, then what would the success rate be? The percentages do not take into account the pups that aren’t given a chance or those pups that just got ruined by lack of experience from the new owner...the percentages of good pups just dropped off drastically...
The dog man or woman besides breeding the best dogs know how to choose a pup as well as how to train it...and they don’t own rose colored glasses otherwise they wouldn’t consistently produce good dogs...
Bruce, in this post is probably part of the answer to why every famous dog had followers...and just as many critiques...
