stabba 10,745 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 Why is it that everytime i open a sporting magazine ie EDRD there always seems to be a big name selling dogs/puppies. Yet let an average man on the street sell a litter or 2 then he,s classed as a peddler. Yet these big names always seem to spout about gifting puppies/dogs in their articles. Is it 1 rule for them and for us another? atb stabba Quote Link to post Share on other sites

weasle 1,119 Posted May 30, 2010 Report Share Posted May 30, 2010 If you think how some one gets there big name in the first place,writing a book maybe,or people working there dogs and them turning out decent.Its fair to say no matter how good the parents of pups they wont all make eye catching good workers.lets say 2 pups out of a litter,the rest being average.With the odd very good or very bad litter in between. Then its about numbers. The more you breed the more good ones you will have.Then the viscous circle starts,because the bigger your name the more people want your breeding.
