You will not find many today that size getting breedings.

Maybe I am wrong, but it is easy to find out. Let study the top ten dog based on the amount of breedings. This will not even be the better working dogs, just the most popular which is often the better show dogs.

I'll do some research. Maybe I am a little biased because my own preference is for a male that is toward the upper end of the standard, and maybe I noticed the older rotts more that were more toward my preference.
