There will always be exceptions to the rules and people tend to look at those exceptions to justify their particular breeding
but every working breed as far as I know uses the same rule

Exceptions to the rules? I would say THE RULE is that highly-linbred dogs are the true producers in the sport, not the opposite.

Just curious, if you only utilize world-beating match dogs, why wasn't Moya's father matched?

How do you explain the success Floyd Boudreaux's HIGHLY INBRED foundation dog, Blind Billy, not being a world beater?
Do you know more than Floyd? Can you think of a more successful line than his?

What about the highly-linebred Little Gator?
Have you built up a bigger legacy of wins than the owner of this COLD DOG?

How would you explain the success of Stone City's COLD, INBRED Awesome Baby, as being behind SO MANY Champions, ROMs, etc.

Historian, if you're going to live up to your name, you need to recognize that "inbred bums producing" is NOT "the exception"
