There is a very large number of "breeders" that after 1 or 2 generations think they have a line. These are the people that profess to know so much and because of that will learn nothing. These are most likely the people that only are in a breed for the "average" time of 10 years (thank goodness). I feel sorry for the newbies that think they know everything. My mentors are still my sounding board and we learn from each other. I very much miss being able to call and talk to Vance (Columbia River) and Jo and Walt (Gretchenhof) but I still speak to Inge and Linda about my planned breeding's, send them puppy pictures and in the case of Inge always have her come over and see the puppies. This is what learning is all about. Your mentors are a source of knowledge of the past and you need that to move forward. Mentors do need to be there to help you but they must not have the attitude of "my way or the highway." >> >> It is the breeders before you that have laid the foundation for the future and when one forgets that you are domed to fail. As was said in an earlier post you don't have a line until other breeders can look at your puppies generation after generation and say "oh that must be an X puppy". There are many people that start with real "lines" and after a couple of generation no one can tell where they came from. >> >> I myself after generations of my own breeding always say my dogs are a combination of Columbia River/Gretchenhof, Minado and Weinland. These are the "lines" that I have used to continue my minds eye view of a GSP . I feel that I have successfully merged these "lines" (which are all very similar in type) to have the phenotype I want. I guess I would consider that I have a "line" only because I have fixed my phenotype for my use. >> I don't understand anyone that thinks they have to protect "their line" because your line is your dogs. When you sell a puppy you need to help guide the new owners but those puppies are theirs to move forward with. They might not have the same minds eye view that you have and will diverge from you but that is what makes the world go around. >> >> Leita Estes Shortales German Shorthaired Pointers >> Home of Multiple BIS, BISS GCh Shortales N Cahoots W Irondale, JH >> # 1 GSP all breed 2011 >> 1 Spotty dog (Dalmatian) Ch.
