So fun to be back in the game after 7 years (holy crud... I can't believe it's been that long!)

I decided to start with IGs, mostly because I love their pictures - Picardy did a great job on them (and all the others, too!)

I've noticed that there aren't a lot of people working with IGs currently. I contacted a couple of kennels I could find to see if they had any advice but haven't heard anything back in a couple of days.

So do any of you have random IGs in your kennels but aren't focused on breeding them exclusively? Done any showing with them lately? Can you tell me anything I should know (average SOPs, etc.)?

Very grateful for anything you can share! Plus anything I ought to know as somebody who hasn't set foot in here for 7 years. happy :)

A few things have changed. For one, our dogs can now earn Grand Championships. For another, the puppies are settled at birth. That's about all I can think of for now - welcome back!

PS. If the IG breeders don't get back to you and you don't want to breed up from source, come and check out JRTs wink ;)

I'm trying to start a line from Source. Got a pretty decent bitch (for a Source dog!!) so that's a nice surprise.

How does GCH work?

After seeing this post figured this would be a good breed to get into them as well! If any of you have some dogs to sell please let me know! Thanks!
