Breedia Dog Forum
Happy to Lionhound. The founder of the BIDC split from the NIS as she didn't approve of their breeding practices, that's what she says. Others say...
Hi Moonstone, that a damn good question. I'd be very curious to the experts answers. I seem to recall it not too much of a problem, it's the bitch...
The point I was trying to make is no-one seems to think there are massive problems with theKing Charles, yet 40% of puppies get pts. Yet at only 5%...
Not really, but if there was a massive problem, I would expect a lot higher than 5%.
And yet you state there is far too much, massive quantities in fact, going on in the wolfy breeds. A bit difficult to justify, if no-one knows how...
Sorry, who's this directed at? I don't think there is any argument that the 'look' of the dog varies, and it's because there is no single...
Why should I do that. I'm not the one making statements. Am I being so unreasonable to ask that if someone makes a sweeping statement that they...
I'd have thought 5% was low for a new breed. Wouldn't it be expected to have a higher number at the beginning? and then slowly lower as the breed...
Thank you Dawn, but don't try and put words in my mouth. I'm not some evangelist stating that there's nothing wrong here. I came on this site, read...
Nope not what I'm saying. The pedigrees that have been posted have also been called into question because they contain lots of mistakes, wrong...
Oh come on now. Are you really suggesting that there are no pedigrees apart from those that are bred for a job? Why the difference in the BC between...
Thanks that was very informative, and interesting. But it doesn't really help this thread in so far as providing evidence that there is something...
Wayhay, and I agree with you, well parts of it :lol: Do you know for a fact the the originators saw a fad? Both of the major organisations say...
I'll always apologise, and admit I'm wrong when given facts, but thanks for the info. Surely you must have at least a gut feel for the numbers?...
I don't think I've actually disagreed with you. I simply questioned why, if you didn't see the point in these wolfy dogs, why you were reading and...
Very interesting statement there Lionhound. You don't know the dogs, yet you can make sweeping statements about too much in-breeding. This is exactly...
Very good point Sally, but probably a can of worms to open. I'd rather stick with trying to find the facts that backup the statements made on...
OK a couple of issues here. Can you catagorically state that there is definately poor breeding practices? Do you have any facts to back that up? Or,...
Mmmm, aren't Lurchers anything crossed with a greyhound? Great dogs by the way, love the looks of some of them, real character. There's a point in...
Aye very true. Personally I think this is the single most biggest problem within the breeds. We really need a single controlling organisation.
