The so called accredited breeder scheme (U.K) - Page 6

Mo - I am more than happy to DNA test - but am worried about the variations that are said to occur between the different countries.  Here in the UK we have many dogs that either are permanently imported or come over for a few months before returning home.  Are all these going to undertake the UK screening before use?  If so that is fine if no what is the point of bringing them over if their DNA screen is of no value and DNA is the best thing we can follow.

I am also worried that DNA will take precident over type, temperment and longevity.  Some breeds seem to be genetically clear and as long as parents are dna tested the offspring dont need to be - does that or could that apply to GSD's.

Im not knocking any of the health screening or DNA tests - I just want to know more.  Fortunately as I have stated on other threads I havent dipped my toe into the breeding scene as yet, but do want to get all information I can possibly gather to ensure that I move on with the greatest knowlege to help the future of the breed.  As hopefully in the future I can get to be like other breeders who can happily state that they have successfully breeding for many years.

Hi Beepy, I dont know who you are but what a very, very responsible person you appear to be. If there were more of you entering this breed I wouldnt fear at all for its future. So refreshing to find someone who doesnt instantly 'know it all' and dive into the breeding programme without the faintest idea of breed problems or defects. You really are a fresh of breath air. I salute your good sence, Good Luck to you in your future breeding programme, you have all my very best wishes for a successful and happy life in the breed, I am sure your dogs will have the same.

Best Regards

tigermouse-tracie ????

what does any of those names mean-i bet 95% no 99% have no idea who you are and more to the point don't care-so to keep banging on about aliases is just so you and your ilk AVOID the more serious challenging questions.

un beknown to your clique a persons name does not alter the questions put in front of you.after all this is what this forum is about-videx has already told you as i have on here many times my name-simon black.

your last message about the rules of this forum-DOESN'T IT APPLY TO YOU THEN ????

Oops Sorry Beepy, only just spotted my tranposed sentance - it should have read ...You really are a breath of fresh air and not  fresh of breath air !!    Though for me, you can be that too if you want !!

Best Regards

That would include you too?

Take a second look at what you have written about Simon Black (above) before you answer that!

Sue B - thank you so much for your kind words.  I hope in the future I get to meet you and your dogs.

It the moment I'm being driven demented as my old boy  thinks he's about 2 and god's gift to lady dogs!!  You'd think at at 12 he'd know better but apparently turning 12 means senility and chasing the ladies is the norm!!

pencil.

why dont you vent all of that pent up anger out on your x-box instead of making a fool out of yourself in front of very wise and experienced folk? the point of this thread is at the top of this page! any USEFUL suggestions? TM its about time sombody stepped up to the plate, you go girl. ROB.

Zac: you will now see the impossibility of changing cowardly trolls

Beepy:

I agree with all of your comments earlier - and as Sue said, you are a breath of fresh air - too many people now buyng GSD`s (or any other breed for that matter) and thinking lets get breeding, rather than lets get studying the breed and its traits first - well done.  

HEY !!! By the Way EVERYONE ..... has this thread improved standards already ???   I had a tele call this afternoon, and I am going to be visited by the K.C. to see if my accreditation level is ok  -  YEEEEEES   !!!  RESULT !!!!!!!!!!!  I made an appointment right away in case he got away and I didnt hear from him again....I am really pleased to see that perhaps others read this thread and take it back to KC level, because its too much of a co-incidence after all we have been saying on here..

I asked for my clubs proposal re the discussion of this to go on the Breed Council agenda yesterday.....

I am really looking forward to my visit, I dont know who will have the most questions to ask, the KC man or me... No - cancel that thought I know exactly who will have the most questions to be asked.
