I say that because of selection. I may have bought dog #1 and dog #2 from you and if they were still yours you may have bred them to your Dog #3 based on your past experience with your family of dogs.
When I breed dog #1 and dog #2 that is based on what I seen, what I am looking for, and what I hope to get. All those things are different at your house.
Will the pedigree still suggest they are your dogs? Yep. But if I went a different route than you that separates me and you and then become the first real disconnect between you and the line that breaks off from your family of dogs.
Great post. Good insight.
