Out of curiosity do you all put more emphasis on the gyp or male dog? I know the goal is to improve on a dog abilities but when breeding to that "superstar" most of the time pups do not truly measure up the parent. Too me superstars are freaks, and there isn't very many of them. Or would you rather breed to a very solid producing dog?

I always kept the males for their size and power and hunting...turned over the females to improve on the line...
many breeders believe that the females are the most important even though the sire and dam contribute exactly 50 percent each...
but some say the female because she is connected to the pups and then the learned behavior before weaning...
I don't agree nor I disagree...but I do believe it is the effort that we as owners put into the pups before they are born and soon after...
