Noah I admire the fact you are always trying to improve the stuff you have and the sincere interest you take in good bred animals and the desire of owners to maintain it. now with that being said if you were able to get your hands on either of the two breeds posted, (which for some strange reason i believe you are) would you A: mix the blood into your stuff to add or take away a charecteristic you like/dislike or B: Leave the breed tru to the way the people have spent generations to make it?
I'm fairly certain you wouldnt be able to leave it be and would cross it, which posses the next question. In the eyes of the generations who have passed and maintained the breed for thousand years wouldnt you be the same as the people mentioned in this post? I.E the ones who have changed a breed not so much for the better? (not saying your breeding would be bad, just using the ideas which have already been posted)
Just somethin to ponder on
