Over 15 years in the dog game.

[No Quarter Kennel]

I was wondering if you been into these dogs for over 10-15 years and you still don't have your own line of dogs, your getting good dogs from well know Dogmen just off of the relationships you've built over the years does that make you a good Dogman or a Dogman at all ?

Too many variables if you are talking about a sport of any kind.
There are great coaches, trainers, conditioners (both strength and stamina), managers, promoters, etc, etc.

In bulldogs, there have been legendary conditioners and handlers who just did not breed dogs.
Many great breeders who never conditioned or handled dogs.

Integrity is where you find it and where people invest the most of who they are into what they want to excel in.
