There are also lines, no pure on one blood by any means, but lines that are blends that become a line. Like the Red Boy/Jocko stuff. The Tonka-Red Baron dogs. Alligator/Frisco blends. Not crosses, but rather, blends of those bloods. We agree here?
The word "pure" is essentially an assininity to use.

Linebred/inbred is more like it, with the % being the key term ... but which term is only worthwhile if the dogs uphold the reason for the linebreeding.

If I say, "Purebred Silverback dogs" ... what does that mean?

If I say, "Linebred Silverback dogs (52.5%)" ... that tells you exactly what you're getting ... especially if I say, "Both parents proven finishers like The Gorilla" ...
