Setting standards is imo necessary from the start first in deciding what type of dog you want to hunt behind and finding a breed that suits your preference this has taken me several years. Now that I house and feed the dogs that I prefer I still only own one male who's natural ability and tight breeding makes him worthy of breeding. I have been on tireless search for a female of the same line to breed to but unfortunately so far have not found the one.I refuse to breed anything else scattered and end up having to go through another dozen to get a maybe. I have entertained the thought but haven't pulled the trigger and won't. The problem is finding two great dogs from the same line in a timely manner as the life span of a working hog dog(one that's hunted 2-3 times a week)is unknown at best.I have owned females from the same line but they weren't breeding quality in my eyes.I raised my male from a pup he's a Cambell and these are a tight breed he came from generations of best to best and strict culling from my friend his sire was eaten by a gator this year which makes it even more difficult for me to obtain the right female. I have yet to find one grown female that someone will come off of and understandably so. Raising pups has been the only option and I have yet to raise a female I thought was worthy.If I stud him out for pick I have one shot and another year gone on one pup and hoping the whole time I bring him home every hunt.I know this is has been a ramble but my point is that a breeding program is incredibly difficult to even get started and I have yet to even get to the culling process of pups bred in my yard because its proved so far impossible to get to breeding process. So how do you start?Did you breed to a cull and go against all that a strict culling process entales or did every man who breeds dogs just Somehow end up with 2 greats of the same line at the same time?
