- I completely understand and realize that you didn't mean to come off as rude, as reading text can make things difficult. So there's no need to apologize. I understand. I myself got a little snarky, so for that, I apologize.
It did, however, seem a bit contradicting that you came here, to CS, for advice, and then tell others (like me) that you wouldn't share pictures because a professional opinion would matter more. Which is completely right, a professional opinion would matter far more than anyone on CS's opinion. But as Hewitt said, there was no reason to just assume that there weren't any professionals here lol.
But any professional/good/reputable breeder would also ask about OFA testing, titles, etc. They would also want to see the dog. You wouldn't buy a puppy without seeing it or the parents first, would you? Good breeders wouldn't agree to stud out a dog to a bitch they haven't seen.
The people who are asking questions about you and your dog aren't trying to get you to not breed your dog, they just want to know what your intentions and goals are as far as breeding goes. While "breeding to better the breed" is admirable, it's pretty vague. And working line dogs are often times dogs that don't fit the breed standard, working lines and show lines are different. While I won't argue or deny that you've probably done the research, the people here, including me, just want to know if it's the right research and you're aware of what you're getting into. Because puppies are a lot of work, and breeding is a lot of work, and you have to be prepared to dedicate a lot of time to it.
Personally, I would prioritize getting a mentor, OFA testing her when she's old enough, and then work on getting some titles. You don't have to breed the dog right after she's OFA tested, or right when she's two years if she does turn out to be breeding quality.
will they ever fold a little or stay the same? I haven't done a whole lot of research on prick ears..
