When i got umbro and saw his breeding I said straight away he was perfect for Belle. In his first year of racing he's won 20lb BWRA Pup and Yearling plus sup dog yearling. NNWRF 21lb plus sup dog yearling. Runner up 18lb BWRA and a few weight class win's and 1 open win and not even 16 month's yet. So won't be affraid to use him. :thumbsup:weathergirls said:go for it Sharon if the bloodlines are there you can get a good litter, you can put the top dog and top bitch together and get nowt I would like to put Tillie LITTLE DOLL (chicane x 2 become one ) to AVIT (gillette x taylor maid) at the end next year if Jac is up for it
EVEN THE BESTXBEST DOESNT ALWAYS PRODUCE WINNERS[OR WORKERS]Bedlam said:my view as a owner of working terriers...the best x the bestif your bitch is just average or not winning dont breed, buy one in from the best.
if your bitch is good then go to the best out there
I bloody hope it's a good combination :teehee:rob67 said:I think it's really interesting when looking at which dogs you would put together because everyone would go for different qualities in dogs..............the fastest and the fastest together might not produce a champion, but a dog with early pace and a good trapper with a dog who has stamina and brains.....................is that the perfect combination?? Would be interesting to know why those who have bred champs went for the combinations they did Or am I being too scientific????

Now i'm offended you mean your all laughing at me :blink: :wacko:Fleesh said:But don't get them right and you can still have a laugh down at the local club
Karen what kind of club members do you think we are ? We don't laugh at people behind their backs :huggles: . We turn to face them dead on and give them a right funny look, then we all laugh at them together :teehee:sadieandco said:Now i'm offended you mean your all laughing at me :blink: :wacko:Fleesh said:But don't get them right and you can still have a laugh down at the local club
milly said:I think its all well and good having the right breeding, but at the end of the day its down to the owners to bring out the best in a dog.Time and time again I have seen promising dogs in the wrong hands, in respect of the owners not having the experience or brains to bring them on ie knocking too much weight off them to gain a few yards advantage. Also I've seen dogs in the 40lb class which are obviously No Limiters :wacko:
This is just my opinion :- "

Over here in Ireland,all the good Greyhound brood's are unraced bitches,or bitches who have only raced a few time's.Whether it's old wive's tale's or whatever,this is the way it is,and true to form,work's.Look up the IGB brood bitches,and check races.9 time's out of 10,it will state,no races.Almost all the great Droopy's brood's were unraced.Ive often been told,when i had a realy good bitch,(who of course had the right blood line's)to put her away for breeding,as to much racing,spoil's them for breeding.Cant realy understand why though.storm1 said:EVEN THE BESTXBEST DOESNT ALWAYS PRODUCE WINNERS[OR WORKERS]Bedlam said:my view as a owner of working terriers...the best x the bestif your bitch is just average or not winning dont breed, buy one in from the best.

SOME TOP CLASS GREYHOUND THAT PRODUE GREAT PUPS
HAVE NEVER RACED OR ONLY A FEW
NOTHINGS A CERTAINTY IN BREEDING ITS TRIAL AND ERROR
OR IF THE TWO DOGS GEL TOGETHER :thumbsup:
We had one like this out of Sasparella and Spellbound. We called him Zipparella he won 4 out of 4 opens off the front but put him beside a dog and he'd push them all over the track. Fastest thing we've had but went to a pet home. Couldn't even use him for stud no bits.tanglewood said:I agree that you can get dogs that are natural racers it doesnt take much to get them into top class form and run to their best ability. However you do get the opposite as well. We bred our bitch Stormy Weather to Lauras Dream and got a bitch we called Stormy Dreams she was a complete flying machine but when she raced she just would not pass another dog, if she was in front she would wait and shoulder the dog all the way up the track, in the end we stopped racing her because we knew she would eventually hurt someone elses dog.
We tried all sorts to get her to run as well as we knew she should but nothing worked, We still have her as we dont re-home our dogs, Her sister Baby Sham and her brother Finale both went on to win lots of races between them. I often wonder that she may have ran better had we re-homed her or if it was always in her.
I dont think this was anything wrong with the breeding I just think that no matter what the breeding you may get dodgy dogs as well as really good ones. she just seemed to highly strung to make a good racer.
Has anyone else had this problem??
