I tell y'all something I've seen over the years. It's natural and common sense to a degree. Say I have two full brothers or two full sisters and one is exceptional and the other is a good dog but just not quite the dog the other is be it build, performance, etc. Everyone is gonna want to breed that exceptional one, and they should. BUT, I've seen too many times when the lesser of the two was actually the better producer. I've seen it in dogs, game chickens, and even homing pigeons and horses. Don't be too quick to discard or shy away from the lesser dog. If they are a cull then by all means don't breed it. You have to breed to dogs that are out of consistent, high percentage litters. One good or great dog out of a litter, no matter how great it is, isn't worth breeding to if all the litter mates are sub par. The odds are stacked against you and the odds of that great dog reproducing itself are extremely low. This is in scatter bred dogs and tight bred dogs alike.
