I guess I'm late coming to this particular party, but I would have to agree with TFX's opinion regarding Boyles dogs. Some of the first dogs I started with in the early 90s were dogs off Spark Plug, and they were the only quality Boyles dogs I fed with any type of regularity. Everything else I ever ended up with off Champions, Gr. Champions, ROM dogs were low percentage dogs that I wouldn't even think of feeding to this day. I've always loved how those dogs were bred, but there simply wasn't enough bottom end in those dogs for me. I also never saw all the mouth or the ability that people claim to see from these dogs, but that could lead to an entirely different thread on viewpoints on such things. As a whole, they were low percentage, rank dogs on average.

Turk, I could've taken Reed home back in the 90s before he ever went down South. Reed, and his brother Reny, were both 1xw and 1xL. Both lost to dogs that eventually became Grand Champions. Reed lost to Troublesome, and Reny lost to Spanky. They both lost on their opponent's championship matches. All the other dogs from that litter quit. While they weren't all rank, there weren't any others that showed anything promising bottom end wise. I don't know how Reed actually ended up producing when he went South, but I know Reny only produced one quality dog out of the limited breedings down with him once he went back to WCC.
