The comparison to humans (baseball) is a stretch because we have the ability to reason and then (somewhat) follow directions. So I can stand at the plate and hit grounders to be more in control of my practice. I agree that just because I pick a head dog to school another does not 100% mean he will be a head dog on that particular occasion. They are animals.

If that dog has very little wrestling ability but in turn is bred to a family member with the majority of the family members being exceptional wrestlers it becomes the same question if the puppies end up with wrestling ability. Did I enhance the next generation's wrestling ability? or was it genetics?

All I was saying is that anything can be enhanced if it is something there in the beginning and it is properly worked/trained/fed/raised. Even the dumbest of dogs will learn something. EWO
