    The breeder is more important.

    Just because dogs have the same/similar pedigree, it does not always mean that they are equal in producing well and have the same performance. And if you know the breeder , you can know why he is breeding/what he is breeding for... (gameness,mouth,etc.)

    And you will know the breeders past breedings, if he had success with the dogs that were produced and such;to see if the breeder has a clue to what he is doing when breeding the dogs.

    And also people can scam and sell a pretty looking pedigree on paper that is all lies to the dogs that he is selling. (If you dont really know the breeder...)

    So thats why I say breeders are more important. Of course both are important, but breeders>pedigree IMO

    WHY would a dog breeder, wanting to IMPROVE a breed, want to do anything to falsify or mislead someone on a pedigree?

    Pedigrees are a look into history, what worked, what didn't.

    I don't hear much about falsified pedigrees in other performance animals. The pedigrees are revered and considered an important link in the history of a breed -- for all to see and study for years to come.

    Why would anyone want to deny that to the history of their breed?

    Thoroughbreds, all kinds of working dog breeds -- I don't hear this same stuff about THEIR pedigrees....why THIS breed?

    There are breeders who strive to improve the line and there are breeders who strive to improve there wallets. A breeder who needs money will tell you anything just to make the sale. Any breeder with a decent amount of dog knowledge can tell a greenhorn right from the first conversation, he'll ask questions about different lines and different dogs in history to see what the buyers knowledge base is. If the buyer has a very low knowledge base of the breed, then your a sitting duck, and must rely on the integrity and honesty of the breeder to sell you a good product.
    The reason we see it in these dogs so much is because its one of the few breeds that are still used for working purposes and competition. Now factor in the fact that we have no publications to verify what dogs are winning in any competition. It gives way to people who lie because in case you dont know the right people, you have no prove of accomplishments or lack there of.

    l really got to go with Mr Futuristic,cause lets face it .........when you go for a fancy "ped"......you would have to be pretty darn stupid to not look, up down left right and way back for false names and titles. Personally l wouldn't go for hand written ped,only if the breeder was related to me.I dont know the way it works in the usa these days,but the country l come from the "apbt is a petbull" without adba/ukc ped. LOL

    Lol, I am in Erie, PA. Not sure if you are just messing with me but I will take the bait. If someone that wanted to buy a pup from me and didn't have all the money, yes, I would take payments. As long as it didn't take to long to pay it off. I remember the guy I bought my first good dog from. His name was Joe D. I made payments totalling a $1000 for a 6 month old grandson of Bell's Baby Jones. I was lucky because he let me take the pup home and care for it while I gave him $200/month. He became my mentor and I learned about half of what I know now from him and I will never forget the lessons he taught me. What he taught me was worth its weight in gold!

    It looks like I'm going to disagree with most here, but if your looking for great dogs then the pedigree is more important than the breeder. What does it matter if you buy from someone that doesnt have any good dogs in the pedigree for the first few generations. I would rather get a pup off a champion, even if the owner just got into the dogs, and has no idea what he has. -Not to say there isn't many different situations, but just as an example. If you want great dogs, then they must come from great dogs.

    This is where the breeder comes in. A good breeder will have dogs with good pedigrees but most importantly will know how to line breed and outcross his preferred line of dogs. This is why a good breeder will always have good dogs. He knows what he is doing!
