Well Said

Goran as i said has a Meat intolerance, so breeding is out of the question even if i wanted to with him, which i do not, even though his hips and elbows are perfect,

He was bought as a ScHh prospect being from outstanding  ansestry in that field

But we must all  remember that every Pup we purchase is another generation away from the real base Dogs in its Pedigree

So if i wanted to start a breeding Kennel of which again i do not, certainly not after around 60 years of  keeping dogs

I would then have to buy a real proven Stud Dog, generations befiore my Pup. and faultless in every respect regards his health, breeding and all that goes with this sort of Dog,

Lets say i would want a Dog on the same vein as Alabama9's  great  ZIDANE, and they do not come along too often

Thats the way i think about it

But the Females that i would put him too would have to be of the same standard as the Stud, even if they were outside Females owned by other people otherwise i would not let him breed them,

I have very strict rules and selection on Breeding Animals and Pigeons, That is why i have remained at the Top of the Pigeon Sport for over 50 years, now beginning too in another country other than my birth place, and i put this down to Selection

RLHAR- bravo.

This thread reminds me of a conversation I had years ago with a lady who owned and bred Fresian horses. I mentioned to her I had a friend who had a Freisan stallion standing at stud in Japan.  She said (sort of rudely but at least she was honest!) the quality of Fresian being bred in smaller countries would never make it into the gene pool in larger countries where there were better horses to choose from.

-That said, a KKL1 is a KKL1 and if this dog can get it, good for her and her owner. But to breed a dog with a health problem would essentially, make everything you have said, Aristian, about the loving the GSD, a complete and total lie. Chew on that.
