Breedia Dog Forum
I just though she looked like she might have a bit of bull breed in her from her head? On the first one her head looked very slightly english bull...
I agree with Lou too. Does she have a very slightly bully head? Might just be the photo. She's absolutely gorgeous.
He's lovely. To me, he looks different again (I don't know the jargon so will probably look stupid if I try and explain what I mean!) and definitely...
Overall, I'd have to go for A. I just can't imagine how B's hind construction is useful? Its hind legs look nothing like wild dogs or wolves which...
I like how it's already been dubbed "worthwhile". That's a bit premature isn't it? Sounds really naff and pointless to me. Will there be waxworks...
Oh, sorry - I thought when you said "culled (in the true sense of the word)" you did mean killed! I've just never heard it in that context before -...
That seems like a really strange thing to say. Why would they be killed? There are many NI that aren't to type, but I've never heard of any beeders...
Some very good points, but I don't really think you can say categorically that "The NI doesn't need outcrossing". Yes, most will appear healthy (of...
Defo. The overriding theme seems to be too much haste and lack of research and planning. And this whole outcrossing thing - I do wonder whether...
I'm afraid I don't really know all the background stuff/breeders involved so I couldn't really say. I hear what you're saying though: people could...
TBH, there's no way anyone can really say much about lines, as the pedigrees are such a mess. Still, I don't think anyone is saying NIs are a lost...
The reason inbreeding has negative effects is due to increased likelihood that a dog will inherit two of the same recessive genes, these may be...
I used to work for the lady who bred them - they were super dogs. Having seven of them on top of me really made me fall in love with the breed!...
I've typed essay-style responses to a few NI threads, particularly those concerned with inbreeding a few months ago. I like many of the dogs, and...
I wonder whether it would be worth getting something custom made? TRPD (google 'pet craft project') helps various dog charities by making...
What makes them work, when other methods have failed? How do they not hurt the dog, but cause it to comply? I have seen them used, along with...
Sorry to hear Fido didn't get on with him, but I'm sure Kai won't be looking for a new home for long! He's gorgeous..
Sorry you feel like this Spookle. All the forums I have been on are full of passionate people, and most of the time this is great, but obviously,...
I guess that at least they've been honest. They could have easily just put one dog on the pedigree to avoid awkward questions, but at least they've...
I have responded (posts within quote in bold).
