I been out of the "Game/ Loop" for a few years now. Upon my return I've noticed a lot of dogs that are performing well seem to be heavy outcrosses or at best very loose line breedings... Dog Like Gr Ch Buk Buk , Gr Ch Hulk. Are these outliers or is there a trend? I was always accustomed to line breeding or outcrosses back to a line to create 3/4 -1/4 crosses... Interested in hearing some opinions
I used, will use and have always used what works when keeping a family of dogs working.Quote:

You can add to but don't take away from.
I have always used this same method since the start of my family of dogs to currently and planned future. The 3/4 with 1/4 out.
This is how I have woven different families together into a single family. Just as the same formula as the Fibonacci sequence = the sum of the 1st 2 numbers equals the next number, so do I line breed on a good dog or cross from the breeding 3/4 and the 1/4 out.
I don't just focus on 1 side of the ped nor just 1 dog so I may also have 3/4 of the opposite side using 1/4 of the good dog as the out. But you just don't stop there.
You have to weave that back into the family again and recreate a new 3/4 in with 1/4 out.
As most family bred dogs based on the same good dog top and bottom, I use different ways to always keep the same topside generation after generation.
Examples using my own dogs and line breeding 3/4 with 1/4 out over and over.
This is an upcoming breeding this year. http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...3&dam_id=93906
This is a tighter version of the same father Black Dragon, 3/4 my bloodline with 1/4 out. the female Abby. http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=90160
. The male that will be bred is 3/4 of Dragons top side with 1/4 of Dragon bottom side http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=93903 and he will be bred to a female that is 3/4 of Dragons bottom side with 1/4 of dragon's topside. http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=93906 .
Black Dragons father, Mister Oxxx is a 3/4 Hicks dog (Uncle-Niece) with 1/4 of White blend as an out. http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=87656 .
and the same as the 2 belly mates. Those 2 belly mates were bred in the past the same way the upcoming breed were.
They were a tighter version of a good litter prior to them. One of the dogs being this dog http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=55941 .
The breeding was 3/4 of the topside http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=62785 bred back to 3/4 of the bottom side http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=62786 based on 2 good belly mates from a good litter. Mango being 1 of the belly mates Mr Reckelss is just a tighter version of Mango.
We can go on and on further and further back, but I have used this in other branches also of my family of dogs not just these dogs.
I have no problem using the 3/4 and 1/4 dogs, but I keep them going past that point also.
I might have left Reckless out http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=69536 that's a tighter version on Mango http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=55941 and also point out that Red Johnie Mother Options is also 3/4 Mr Reckless breeding with 1/4 white Oak out http://www.thepitbullbible.com/forum...p?dog_id=90830 .
Yes I still go with the 3/4 in and 1/4 out. Have even more than just those .
