like the old saying say, fathers could be few ,but mother is only one. Foundation for good breedings is female.

good bitches important part. but without very good male dog they worth not much.
at best will produce from mediocre to trash dogs.

ValK with all respect you don't know what you are talking about. I'll tell you I have seen excellent females bred to VA dogs and they produced an average puppies ,and I seen those females bred to dogs which were far in the show ring but with very strong breeding behind which produced excellent puppies. I am saying only few from bunch highly rated dogs including VA can produce really good offspring. i imported hundreds of puppies from in my life from Germany from the best males mostly VA dogs and maybe 10%-15% were excellent puppies, rest just pets.

If you have a good female...You can have your choice of males to mate her to...

first question one should ask, good for what, good pedigree, good breeder, good pet, good sportdog, clublevel, or competition, good policedog, good PP dog, good looking dog, good trained dog, ?take your pick, most people wouldnot recognize true good dog if it bit them in their ass

"If you have a good female...You can have your choice of males to mate her to..."


Absolutely. How many times have threrebeen people posting on here looking for a superb female to breed to there " great" male? Never see any lists of females by owners who are eager to participate.

Absolutely true joanro. top quality female is a gold mine . You have choices to breed to many males, and no matter which male you chose puppies will be at least very good quality. On the other hand if you have an average or below average female don't expect mericle ,because is not going to happened even if you breed to the best dog in the world. Mle can only complement and improve few things ,but most the puppies get is coming from the mother.

"first question one should ask, good [female] for what,..."

Your list of venues would encompass what any breeder holds as "good". Let's figure that we are talking about breeders who know a Good bitch when they have one, for whatever venue they are focused on.
