THE NEXT GENERATION
Every pet owner should ask this of their breeder, and Every breeder should ask themselves the following question: Is the last dog I produced better than the first dog I produced? If the answer is yes, now ask "why"? How? What is it that makes them better? Is the last litter I produced better than the litters I produced 2 years ago? What are the factors that aide you in determining a yes or no answer? A different color, wider chest, or famous pedigree does not cut it. As breeders, we all must strive to produce better dogs with each generation. Why? Because if the product of our kennel is not getting better with each generation, then we are staying in the same place. As breeders we cannot remain in the same place for several years. We are either growing or wilting. Increasing or decreasing. For many breeders, their Ideal Bulldogge is already in their yard. They have arrived so to speak. These people will not grow. They have already achieved their goal. Even our favorite dogs should simply be stepping stones to an even better creation. Unfortunately, there are far too many good "pet owners" breeding dogs. Its a thinking mans game. Its a battle that takes strategy. Its not for the faint of heart and weak willed. Remember this: If the generations arn't getting better, they're getting worse.Now lets all look in the mirror and shape things up!
