They must not be too watered down if they got riddick from craigslist or thrifty nickel (I believe it was one of those). He was said to be the first dane they tried and he is apparently the hog dog. If L3 is the only one out there trying to resurrect the dane as a working breed, then I will assume that riddick is pet bred like all the other American bred danes. To have the first dog you try work out, then I would say the pet market hasn't watered them down too bad. That said, I have a friend who has all her brood stock brought in from Australia. She will not buy an American dane to save her life because she swears the quality is not there. Nothing against L3, but the first dog he had to use on hogs, capstick, was proclaimed to be one for the history books. Now the first dane he has tried is equally billed as phenomenal. It would appear he has no culls.
