Sorry to be away, but alot of other rottie business has side tracked me.
Brunie's Mom...I did notice you have posted to other litters announcements in the past that are not 100% to the criteria you have held me to. Maybe a change of heart since those posts, I dunno, although you (and everyone) is perfectly free to voice their concerns. I don't mind people being passionate about an issue...just be consistent.
I did not post the fact that Quincy has already done a BST of sorts. She was the demo dog needed for the Pocono Area RC sanctioning show BST. While she passed (having performed the entire evaluation along with the prerequisites to be entered) and was deemed with no disqualifying faults. This was merely a sanctioning show. Due to a misunderstanding she ended up not being shown at the USRC NE Regional show in Ct. She & Junky will both be entered in the upcoming USRC NE Regional hosted by SPARK in South Eastern PA ( I know shameless plug for the clubs soon event). She will also have her BST at some point as that is not a concern on her ability to pass it.
As I posted, and Gretchen touched on. I did not come to the closing idea of breeding them without considering many things. We each have our concerns in breeding programs. I have made sure my own dogs have passed the health testing which is extremely important just for my own but especially if offspring are to ever come. Temperment is very high on
MY list. I am looking for exactly what is in my own dogs pedigrees in temperment...nothing less. I have a number of people whom I trust in also evaluating my dogs honestly & not to blow hot air up my ...well you know...lol.
I do appreciate the comments, and I again thank the well wishers too! I apologize for posting my own "expectations", which are just that what I expect from knowing each dog pretty much in both pedigrees top and bottom. Also from the time and training put in with these two. I COMPLETELY understand potential does not mean success in the litter box. What looks good on paper does not always turn out as we wish.
