Hi, Donna would be interested as would many on Davids's report.Did he agree with our expert panel?lol.
Pretty much! :-) Barcia, Dee Bee, Rupee, Jungle Deuce, Raw Ability.... with very sound, clear and proven ideas for each dog. Thankyou SO much to everyone who has taken the time to try and help me out with this one. Looking at the success of the Barcia/Fernado cross and also the fact that Cindy Maree's dam's litter sister Zagati threw a very impressive litter to Barcia including the super Miss Ezmae, I had always liked Barcia for her but was too scared to buy a straw! LOL! You guys on here, other breeders and trainers and David all supported that idea so I really got to thinking on it. I have bitten the bullet LOL! - so I believe I'll put her to Barcia first and later on Rupee (who I think will be awesome for her too) She obviously didnt reach the heights of some of her litter (Good Odds Cash, Caroline, Subtle Art, Ben Mayo or three quarter siblings Good Odds Harada , Feral Franky, etc but losing a toe on her third start and continuing her career with that injury, may have not helped her performances. Even so she managed three BONs in her eight wins . A fall in her last start prompted the idea to retire her, at only 27 months of age, she looked to be just hitting her straps - but who knows? I am just excited to have had the opportunity to obtain this good little bitch and look forward to being back in the industry and having lots of fun. A big thankyou to Paul Bonner, of Highlife Kennels, for letting me have Cindy.

I would go with AstonRupee In the current climate to spend 12/14k for a BB straw on a maiden brood is a risk, where AR I think will be a superstar at stud where you could get 4k a pup. JMO.

I agree with Jack on this one
If she misses you get a return, not money lost
If you want to buy the BB vial, use it when you know she can produce a healthy litter of pups
An interesting sire for her would also be Kinloch Brae

Hi sandro, you get BB into the line with AR as a bonus. HOS like AR will be the 2 hottest sires by this time next year. Cheers Jack.

Using another sire besides Barcia Bale is like buying a cheap laser rather than a GPPIFR3300. In the long run it's a far better option and well worth the investment.

Hey Sandro - all very good advice. I LOVE Rupee and no one can say that HOS is not worth considering. I have had a number of KBs and they were good pups. I know it might be a bit of a gamble with BB, as far as litter size etc, but I think using him narrows the odds on producing some super star pups. We already know the cross can produce them. At the end of the day, though - we are all just making educated guessing and hoping for the best! LOL!

I agree Jack - I like HOS but I love Rupee.I have not a doubt in my mind that Rupee will be HUGE as a sire. I cant see how he can not be - with his own ability, outstanding breeding (top US dog out of a litter sister to Dee Bee) and look at the calibre and number of bitches he has already had. Such a STUNNING dog in person. Most def my pick for her next litter.

Hi Donna, After giving a lot of thought on your options to breed from your bitch the other two dogs that stand out above all others in my opinion for. future litters are . Aston Rupee Aussie Infrared
Very best of luck Donna , hope you have a good even litter.

Thakyou Roger for taking the time to look at breedings for her. I agree a hundred per cent - Rupee will hopefully be the next sire and I do like Aussie Infrared.
