And that was a great point made on the other thread!

I'm also not a fan of breeding young dogs. This is just me. I don't care what other ppl do with their dogs. I bought some dogs from some highly reputable breeders/kennels whatever you want to call it... and none met my expectations. I realized if I want the dogs I like I got to breed my own dogs or put my bitch under a stud I like. Nuff said!
I dont agree with it and can touch on what a few have said. When folks don't know the sacrifices of being a dog man and not in it for the hustle they don't understand the cause and effect of certain decisions. They say it's not your business yet when the news breaks everybody gets shook in an area no matter if they do are don't. Why over populate and hustle our dogs when we see the trouble the breed is in. Folks say low life this and that yet they take the money from anybody. Breeding young dogs with intent to sell is a hustle. Keeping them is taking a chance. Making that choice is one thing. I know a man who has a ROM bitch untouched. He sales dogs time to time but all her ROM pts came from his hard work and foresight. I don't knock selling dogs. Just put in the work and understand the sacrifice. Value what it means to be a dogman with some standard and integrity. Too many dogmen are half ass gamblers, peddlers, and in it for a buck. Jmo
And that is what i want young and old people to understand! Our breed is being pimp out by ASAPC,PETA and worst PEDDLERS who only see $$$. Truth is folks can breed young dogs if they please to they feed them b,u,t i do belive as members have said its going to catch up if that practice is kept up!
Old proven stud x young gyp I see no harm in that.Now young male x young female emmm im hard press to expect big things and would always look at these with a crooked eye.
I'm on board with the majority of what you say here.
Only one sentence I get tired of hearing from a ton of people on subjects like this about money.
Outside of TG or maybe one or two others making some money, there isn't anyone MAKING money breeding and selling these dogs. Yes, some are, but personally, I don't know anyone who is making money. So to say "they in it for the money" is a bit asinine.
Anyone here know someone personally who makes significant money breeding and selling bulldogs?
I'd breed to that son of red pirate before I would breed to half the other stuff that is up for stud.
Here's my take on it, a young female ok I can understand that but in no way would I breed to a male that hasn't been checked for this simple reason, there's always a viable stud I can choose to breed to so I don't need to settle for a youngster. In no way would I breed 2 young dogs together I just can't do it.
Salute...
Ginetics are Ginetics, surely the age of the sire and dam should not affect how the dogs behave or mature into grown dogs?
Out of curiosity how are the pups bred? Are they tightly bred dogs?
I wouldn't be a fan of breeding young unproven dogs but if it needed to be done I also wouldn't hesitate. We imported a young bitch from garner a few years ago and just before she was to be shipped she broke so we had garner mate her to the bobby Peru dog and got some of the best dogs we've ever had.
