They will be brace dogs. It is bred in them.

It is genetic and more likely than not they will be "brace" style dogs. Even a brace cull may be too slow to run UBGF.

I bred a SLOW SLOW male to a some what faster female that is also brace and the pup is 4 months old now and I've started on the come commands but if he's not going to be much more than his parents I wouldnt want to put that much into him.

Probably the best you could hope for is the speed of the female.
