On Breeding Better Dogs

Within the game dog world it has always been harder to get the great broodbitch. When you had that it was much easier to find that good male who lined up. I guess I can't speak for hogdogs on this but if you are starting out and you have a chance to get a good bitch I would take it as it gives you a chance to get a whole litter to choose from rather than one pup from a six week old litter. Also I believe that it is easier to keep consistency within one breed rather than the crosses. That doesn't mean you can't get good hogdogs from crosses, it just means you may have to take a longer view in your breeding program. The first cross may just be a bridge to get you where you eventually want to be. But the eye of the man pulling the strings is always a huge part of success. A good judge of dogs can make dogs out of anything but a poor judge of dogs will ruin the best line in a few generations. These are my opinions on this topic alone.
