I know a local breeder who produces nice pups too. One day though, I'll have one of Michael's pups. Oh, the why. Well, I just love the dogs! http://littlesabledog.wordpress.com/

Kelly Moderator Reg: 06-03-2005 Posts: 1495 Loc: Offline	I would love to have a Loups du Soleil pup. Michael Ellis has some phenomenal dogs. I would also not complain if I had a pup from Donna Matey's Jackson (he's an LdS pup). I fell in love with Jackson the day I set eyes on him... even before I saw him work. I have 2 Kaiserhaus females, and love them to death. If Cindy was still breeding I would have a house full!!! Both of my girls are from the Aera van Joefarm X Turcodos van de Duvetorre litter.

Katie Finlay Webboard User Reg: 07-27-2009 Posts: 1421 Loc: Southern California Offline	Definitely. I really want a pup out of Bogan. Time just isn't right for me yet, though. http://littlesabledog.wordpress.com/

Laurent Pelletie Webboard User Reg: 09-27-2010 Posts: 16 Loc: Texas Offline	Thanks. I did a quick search on Bogan, and found out about "Les Ombres Valeureux" in California. I did not know about them. I am getting a puppy in 3 weeks from a breeder in South Texas. Most likely that dog will just be pet quality. I am already searching breeders for my next dog, which I am planning in getting in a year or 2 from now. I will want that one to be a Mondio ring prospect.

Katie Finlay Webboard User Reg: 07-27-2009 Posts: 1421 Loc: Southern California Offline	Steve has his own small breeding program with Bogan. Debbie Skinner is the breeder for Les Ombres Valereux and I do like the dogs that come from her a lot. I can tell which dogs are out of her lines at a trial too, even if I don't know them. I've always loved the way they work and her kennel is pretty well respected in the working dog world from what I know, aside from the ringsport drama that goes on. Steve produces great dogs too, and I like the female he has as well as Bogan. http://littlesabledog.wordpress.com/

Katie Finlay Webboard User Reg: 07-27-2009 Posts: 1421 Loc: Southern California Offline	I'm not a breeder, but I think only a few generations back. The dog is 50% of each of its parents, and 25% of each of it's grandparents, and so on. eta. If the individual dog is known to produce him/herself, that's really what makes it significant in a pedigree. Not just the kennel name showing up. Remember that even if a dog comes from the most world renowned breeder, it still goes down to the individual animal and what kind of offspring it produces. At least IMO. Does that make sense? http://littlesabledog.wordpress.com/
