better dog

Post by Anderson Upland Beagles »

I'm wondering if most have better running dogs with the ones you buy or the ones you breed ?

I think it comes down to what each man is looking for .

If I didn't Trial ...I would breed and raise my own pups. For a Trialer alot of time can be put in a litter just to find out you're left with an average dog. One that doesn't have the Talent level to Win a Trial.

For me it's Buy. I've had much better luck this way. Finding the right dog to buy is another story. :lol:

I've got five adult dogs and all of them were bred and raised here. I've bought about a dozen in the last six years from pups to adult dogs and none of them staid. Only one, IMO, was a keeper and she died from kidney failure.
