I thought something interesting was said in the article about Melon. It said, "this is definitely a producing family of dogs".
I know there are several lines of dogs out there with great great dogs. No question about it. The quality of dogs from one family to the next can be debated all day long. But I have posed this question before and I can't get anyone to respond really.

As far as a single family of dogs, or one breeder in particular, who would you say has the most ROM dogs? What family has produced more dogs that PRODUCE dogs than any other family?

GH started with Rufus, who produced Pig, who produced Park who produced Hailstone - all consecutive ROM dogs. Then you have Andy L, Bystate's Ms Prance (pure Hammonds' dog), his Dio dog, Lucan was POR, Conswella ROM and there are more, but those are just off the top of my head.

Lebron, you should try you some of the "Rufus" blood. You'd most likely enjoy it.
