jdarling Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 We will be breeding (female's name) in mid July to (male's name). We expect black, merle, tri and possibly sable and chocolate all pups will carry the gold gene. This should produce conformation as well as performance pups. So THAT's how you get conformation and performance pups! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzysdad Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 No kidding. I'll take two to go and side of fries...oh and a large diet coke please. I had no idea it would be that simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSmitty Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 "The gold gene". Ah, that's what I've been missing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 *Please note that although *** has correct structure and movement, he will not be shownin the conformation ring so that he will be able to be selectively offered at stud to ABCA lines. But here they are offering this magnificent male to us lowly working dog folks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdarling Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Journey! Don't you know anything? THAT is a very rare ... VERY rare ... stud dog. And I cannot believe you found one of those in the United States! I am just shocked! We're not worthy. And you can tell how proud they are of that claim, for they've printed it so large on their website! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweet_ceana Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 ETA: Limited frozen breedings available! Is that normal practice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRhodes Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 He carries red, dilute, and tri. Kind of off topic but I thought tri was a dominant marking, in other words the dog has to be tri to have tri to pass on? Hard to say for certain in the photos but the dog doesn't look like a tri to me. Am I wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say for certain in the photos but the dog doesn't look like a tri to me. Am I wrong? Depends what kind of tri. Tan point is recessive, sable is dominant. ETA, I have a rainbow colored stud with gold ticking. $100,000 per breeding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanillalove Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 ETA: Is that normal practice? I know it is at least normal, if not common, in the show world. I worked with someone who bred labs and she has frozen semen for a dog that passed away merely because he was, in her mind, the perfect example of a Lab. She has also bred to frozen semen from a dog who is no longer living. It's very expensive but it seems very valuable for show breeders. I think there is a long list of pros and cons for it, but I think it has it's place. It could deem very valuable in working lines, I haven't had any experience in it there yet, just from show people at work, but I think it's pretty common at least in that type of breeding by all the talk I've heard about it.

Stelly's got them all beat ;-) you got yer, gold, silver,copper ( we gots all the precious metals covered )..throw in those lapis lazuli ojos (hows that term for suggestive selling ;-) ) then toss in the ermine spots ;-) Can you say Money Maker!

Sue R Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Stella has got to be the dog of the future as every color is equally represented! Going to sell shares or start a syndicate? And price the eyes "each" and you will make more money off her. She has a "coat of many colors". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz P Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 My stud dog is rainbow colored because he is encrusted with precious stones and he passes that trait on to 100% of his puppies. You see, he is a rare double rainbow. That makes him dumb as a post, so he doesn't actually work sheep, but I am sure his puppies will because his great, great grandfather won a lot of trials.

diane allen Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Oh my. This thread has sooooo....um....strayed (?). Too much. Did anyone notice that one of the original "breeders" listed had named a dog Blue Moon - cuz they got her (I think female) during a blue moon, and of course, she is a "once in blue moon dog"......but that there is a breeder in Australia whose kennel name is Blue Moon? Weird. Guess it's not anything illegal, and coincidental and all...but sheesh. Fun may now resume.... diane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeltaBluez Tess Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 I know the breeder in Australia...she moved from her. When I knew her, she had good working dogs. I think she still has nice working line but haven't talked to her in years. She has a blue merle that ran in Nursery in 01 or thereabouts....nice bitch!!s I don't know about the Blue Moon kennel in the USA....
