[quote="Platz"]One's philosophy on breeding is also based on how one view the dogs value in the skeem of life. Some view the dog as meerly a tool to do a job, be it hunt, or win awards. & generate profit. Some want the total package, a form & funtion and a long healthy live. Breeding for ANY single trait is short sighted at best. No matter how much one whats to break it down to best to best.....The Genetic puzzle remains more complecated.[/quote] indeed
