Maybe I have stricter requirements of my dogs because I hunt them alone and it takes a special dog to excel at it, but my train of thought is that if a dog does good in the pin and not in the woods don't breed it. If the dog does good in the woods and not in a pin don't breed it( a quite pin not a comp). If a dog does good in the woods and in the pin then breed it and only then. A hog is a hog and my dogs better act the same no madder where that hog may be. You also have to keep in mind that we have been talking about Ridgebacks a dog that has lost its hunting roots and some breeders are trying to bring that back. This dog needs to be breed and culled until only hunting dogs are left, but that will never happen so as a hunting breeder you must do every thing you can to make sure every dog you breed is a perfect hunting dog before you breed them.
