But, even the top men aren't going out of their way to get pures, surely that's saying something? it’s hard work getting one and ones you can aint pure whos the top men mate ? few had pures and breed off them Quote Link to post

I hadn’t met him then , but we had a mutual friend that put him in touch with me. He said if it was a dog, he’d have the say what bitches it may mate, and if it was a bitch, he’d have the say when and what dog it was mated with and the litter would be his ! He said he would have the final say what competitions or matches it may eventually run in ! I politely refused his offer and said any pup I take on is 100% mine, and I think he really just wanted a dog sitter ! I met him a few times after that and found him an interesting and knowledgeable man, but he put far to many conditions on someone having a dog from him. Cheers. 8 1 Quote Link to post

Cheers. didn’t know him mate but a few have said the same maybe thinks thats the way and best for the breed i’d argue get something descent breed plenty and start getting some quality popping up abit more to have quality and breed it you can’t have any sentiment i don’t think but who knows Quote Link to post

Paul was good friends with the chap I mentioned above and similar breeding quite abit of American chabowski "spelling" along with Arab stuff I'd seen pures before and they was ok but these really opened my eyes especially in winter on good ones and then the chap above put Nero on his smooth a few year ago and they also was very good. 1 Quote Link to post
