I understand that. I have been doing it for nearly 30 years. What I am saying is that there is more then one place to get a dog that goes back to those dogs mentioned. There is a dif between Line, and In breeding. I doubt this day and age anyone I know of will be doing the brother to sister kinda thing. Line breeding is common among many of us. Just because someone kept "a name" on a dog does not mean they are truly of that breeding. When Roy passed, he left dogs to several different people nation wide. I know people who market that name but get their butt kicked week in and week out. Some just kept naming dogs denalisunflos whatever, even if there is no real relation anymore. I find that sort of miss leading. But people buy in to it. Just because Ring and Bandita are in my field champions pedigree, does not mean I would consider them "a denalisunflo" dog. No different then Saightons for that matter. There is a small handful of dogs that are closer to that breeding then anyones, and I know who they are. Anyway this is getting away from the topic. I do know there will be no other sleeping at the end of my couch LOL. ESS for life.:cheers: I start a new beginning myself this year as I retire my old work horse to life on the couch and hunting, and get rolling with 3 new pups. Going to be a busy summer.
