Sibling reproducers
I’ve been really studying pedigrees lately and crosses that seem to have worked or certain dogs that reach the status of reproducers. One thing that makes me curious is the siblings and what separated them....for example:
Old South Stylish Rebel and Ball’s Stylish Hickory Nut Harry
Insane Cain and Insane X
Rat Attack and brothers
Sackett Jr....did he have a brother
LIPPER and....well his brother
List goes on and on...
Was it just volume of females that separated them or what
You even see it on the females....you’ll here, such and such stud dog crosses great on “fill in the blank” females. I tend to believe it is all about genetics. Certain genes produce voice volume, tree power, track power, desire to hunt, cold nose/hot nose, and looks obviously. We see these in crosses that has been made.
Winning percentages is training....alone or pack is trained, and accuracy is also trained,
So With all that, is there a difference in breeding to siblings? Does anyone believe that stud owners that have owned siblings in the past got them mixed up in the breeding pen and the same results occurred.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
