[quote="Txbandogger"]I do stand corrected, but must emphasize my prior statement…[u] “(my apologies but I can not quote this, but the AKC considers F5 as pure bred and general genetic theory is F4)”[/u] That policy is buried deep in the AKC regulations and not easily found nor documented. Wow nine generations deep huh? You theoretically can obtain “purity” within four; in my opinion; at ten generations deep of in/line breeding it is time for another outcross! LOL Well luckily enough I highly doubt bandogs will be up for breed recognition by any KC in the near future…. LOL[/quote] Your are corect it's very hard to find info from most registerys on when they feel a breed is actually a BREED :roll:
