BREEDER'S CODE
I will study the BITCH as well as the sire.
I will study the GRANDPARENTS rather than the parents.
I will not pay attention to breeding superstitions.
I will interpret a pedigree by breeding FACTS AND DOMINANCE rather than by names and titles.
I will keep full breeding records and draw conclusions accordingly.
I will put away culls, weaklings, and the deformed shortly after birth.
I will judged a stud to his OFFSPRING even to the third generation.
I will honor most the BRED BY EXHIBITOR DOG.
I will give preference to breeding specimen of good temperament and strong nerves.
I will have patience to TRY AGAIN and again and not be discouraged by litters which are disappointing.
I will be led on constantly by the seductive dream of one day producing THE PERFECT DOG OF MY BREED.
And if another breeder forges ahead of me, I shall envy them, but also PRAISE THEM.
