I just had to show this pretty girl off! She isn't from source to source breeding (anymore). I took on the project of bringing new blood and different traits (big heads, when all Gordon's have small, etc). I have been using show quality dams/sires to get up to show quality more quickly, but I'm still proud of this beautiful girl, nonetheless!

WAS stands for Worth A Shot, one of my 3 original lines. I was able to condense all three into one line. I only lost coat and forequarter. I'll work on SS eventually, I'm not too concerned about that right now. happy :)

Yes she's beautiful - well done! But why oh why do you have her on Old Boy trashy dog food, surely she deserves a custom 1777 puppy ration? or am I missing something fundamental here?

I know this is an old thread but thought I'd post anyway.

Most source breeders feed their dogs (both bitches and studs) Old Boy as they wont be showing any of their offspring for a long, long time lol. Therefore there is no point in feeding them good food until their dogs are up to show quality (which in source breeding can take 12 months or more)

I was giving everyone Pet House, but decided to stop feeding it to project dogs and stud only dogs when their condition doesn't matter. happy :)
