There is nobody and I mean nobody that has a 100% turnout ratio. To me tho the results are more predictable in a established line of dogs. Just like Tdogs friend who said he probably would have never bred that gyp but then due to a accidental breeding, he found out what kind of producer she was. I have had a few gyps that have produced way better then what they are. I can give you a example: I have a dog named Yellow. Let's just call him a good journeyman dog. He should have been a really fast dog but just came out with average speed. He did have a really good nose and a abundance of grit. He can go out and get the job done and needs no help but he kind of sits in the shadow of Showtimes, Hank, Amber or a couple others I can name. Those dogs were just in another class. That being said I bred him to a female that was a pretty good dog but she lacked a little grit. Those pups came out the real deal which two of them were Oak and Cypress. The main thing that has worked for me is only breeding dogs that can do it by there self. We as hog hunters have to many split races and if a dog will not run and bay his own hog, he has no business being in the gene pool.
