IMO, steady methodical dogs are often the best dogs and hardest dogs to whip. There are a lot of good, prepotent dogs stacked together in her pedigree--related too, as Cheryl Tiegs (dam to Rick Rude & Ricky's sister) was a half-sister to both Gr Ch Buck and Lady In Red, all of them being sired by Little Tater. Forget the pedigree you're reading, when you see Chery' Tiegs you see a daughter of Little Tater (not BBB).

What's more, is that Cheryl Tiegs is actually a cousin to Poncho and Missy, as her mama Tessy was really a full sister to Ch Hammer (more on this later )

Back to Little Tater ...

If you keep that in mind, as you go down the 4th generation of your bitch's pegree (right-click her ped and open in new window), you see LaBamba (LT's 1/2-bro), Cheryl Tiegs (LT's daughter), Black Beauty (out of LT's 1/2-sis Dirty Mary), Rolo-RedBaby to make LaBamba again (LT's 1/2 brother), Little Tater (not BBB) over Tessy (who's actually falsely-bred and is really a sister to Ch Hammer), Gr Ch Buck (sired by LT), some Redboy and Tombstone blood), and then Ch Hammer who is really Tessy's brother, Miss Trinx who's 3/4-inbred off LT's daughter Lady In Red, and then again Poncho (Hammer/Trinx, same as before) to Comet (who's Hammer to a daughter of BBB to Little Tater's daughter, and Buck's sister Pacer).

When you realize that Chery's Tiegs is really off of Little Tater bred to a sister to Ch Hammer, and when you consider that Poncho is off of Ch Hammer bred to a 3/8ths Little Tater bitch in Miss Trinx, you will realize that Poncho, Missy, and Cheryl Tiegs are bred near identical

The other blood in Miss Trinx's pedigree is almost 100% Tombstone/Red Baby blood, and Cheryl Tiegs was bred to LaBamba (Rolo/Red Baby) to get Rick Rude and Ricky's sister.

This may be confusing if you're not familiar with the blood, but in other words there is a lot more relatedness to that pedigree than meets the initial eye ...
