With all of your current dogs at such a low SOP, yet high generational status, I have decided to have a go at breeding from starter dogs...
I hope that by bringing "new blood" into the breed, we can all benefit. |

Hi and welcome to the breed! ![]() Our SOPs are so low as we've only been working on reviving the breed since the 16th April 2016. The 'Generations' are technically incorrect for us though - as because we are using 'current SOP males' to breed to our 1st, 2nd or 3rd Gen source girls it's actually saying the Gen is a lot higher (as it's taking into account the current high SOP male's generation - as opposed to our source generation) ... I hope that makes sense? lol - I'm not very good at explaining things, hahaa! But anyway - most of us are on our 3rd Gen at the moment I believe. You can find a list of the 'current' high SOP Hidden Studs (in abandoned kennels) here: www.showdog.com/forum/read.aspx?id=545076 And we have a Breeder Update thread here: www.showdog.com/forum/read.aspx?id=547970 Which we use to announce new SOPs etc. Our breed has 4 colours: Brown Yellow Brown & White Yellow & White Yellow & White is the most common colour in the hidden studs. We don't have any high SOP Brown studs anymore. We only have 1 x Brown/White high SOP stud, and 2 x Yellow. Most of us are trying to keep some Brown source boys that are born with decent SOPs so that we don't lose the colour altogether. Looking forward to having a new kennel in the breed! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Thank you. Yes, I did read the forum on the breed updates- that is what prompted me to try the breed. By the way- this is Zipline in another kennel....hahaha Oh, you are right in the fact that one cannot have too many kennels here! (I just got another family acct.- that makes 2 for me)... Too much fun! Thanks! |
