Koots, its allways depending on what you look for when you say " best " and today its way different than 15 or 20 years ago, as then a good dog could be sportdog, policedog and PP dog all together
nowadays, an ideal sportdog prospect is not per se suitable for police or PP or even petdog,
furthermore we can ask ourselves if every famous dog is really a good dog in itself, and for breeding, if we look at dogs like Eros mohnwiese for example, great champion as in results/points, greatly trained by Ronny who is aesome trainer, but how many great dogs pedigree you can find him in,
furthermore it is important who a puppy ends up with, and some breeders give young dogs for free to top trainers or even pay them money to train and trail one of their breedingproducts
there are several kennels that produced multiple good dogs over time that never got famous, geefacker, seven bridges road in holland, haus silma, to name some
now if you ask me what kennel I would go to if i would buy a pup for me, that is not easy to answer as that would depend on individual combination that is bred, and there are no kennels that I know of that consistantly breed for and produce what i am looking for both personally and professionally
I was reading an article recently from a USA police dog person(forgot the name) that stated that they expect NOT to get any more good policedog prospects from europe in about 5 to ten years , and my first reaction was, no way, but when im testing dogs, seeing competition and see what is bred and talk to other vendors like me, I think this guy may have a point

This dog is very serious, his puppies are usually very serious, they can be sporty but with less motor

Eqidius and many other kennels are inbreeding with Ellute vom Mohnwiese
Eqidius right now breeds West German sporting dogs with a little of his lines

txar, as for aik, it might depend a bit on what females he breeds
as for linebreeding on Ellute, dont think that is a plan by itself, but many good dogs came from Ellute, so at certain point you will double up anyway

Duke, I'm curious which studs do you favor right now?

in regard of header of this topic - i was thinking about and honestly i can't name any private breeder who's breeding dogs exclusively for work.
i just comparing the breeding approach i've been familiar in the past where dogs by genotype and phenotype been bred for narrow working purpose (and must to stress very successful) to what can be seen today in commercial breeding. the difference not just big but huge.
i guess today hardly can be found GS dog suitable for ANY kind of work in the ratio less than 1 to 100. and even that one is not result by selection but rather incidental popping up some good gene from decades back ancestor.
