gnasher16 29,664 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Nothing wrong with inbreeding i imagine he has a huge brother as inbreedings are always likely to produce the extremes of what a line has to offer.... In my opinion its the way to go with a lot of these working staffs ......not sure the old kc would look too favourably on it but still f**k em ! Hope the lad gets a good home.

matty 52 Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Yes rest of the litter is quite big but to start with these dogs even though kc have been bred to be athletic lean and fit, hope someone can give this lad a go. Link to post Share on other sites
Terrier man 38 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Line breeding is keeping your lines close and that staff is the right type for hunting very terrier type. His small size is a result of line breeding it tends to limit the size. If i had the kennel space id have him over as theres very few staffs this size and if he worked out hed be some dog to put over a russel bitch. Link to post Share on other sites

matty 52 Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I think the rules have changed you cant register a litter inbred now but this dog was bred before the law was placed so it is fine is there anyone in the West yorkshire area that would want to take me and my brother digging with this dog as i have never done it and would love to see how this fella does?
