Guest fight the ban Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) one thing we all have in common no matter wat breed our dogs are is that they are either a dog or bitch! just been talking to a lad who bought a dog and a bitch from the same litter. they where both brought on separate to each other but in the same way. the bitch started to mature several months before the dog, wich i believe to be the case in most dogs, he was able to start and bring her on first. obiously this gave her more experiance and an extra edge over the dog. they are four years old now and both run together but the bitch still has an extra edge over the dog. do you think this is just coinsidance or the fact a bitch will normally mature before the dog? what do u think, could one be better than the other?

whip 1 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 i have always bought dogs,i prefer them to work,they don't come into heat so can be used in company anytime and don't upset the rest of the kennel and i'm never tempted to breed with them just because it's an option. i always try to buy from people more knowledgable than me whos dogs i admire both type and how they work. good job not everyone thinks the same though or there wouldn't be any Quote Link to post
