Just because your dog is from 'champion background', is AKC registered, and you think he's gorgeous doesn't mean he's breeding material. Is he a Champion? Has he been shown at all? Sorry to say, but your opinion in all of this doesn't count for much of anything. You need confirmation of your dog's breedability by judges with experience in the breed, who know the AKC standard. I tend to think that your dog wouldn't achieve his Championship. In fact, had you gotten your dog from a reputable breeder, you'd have had your hands tied by a contract forbidding his use at stud.

While I have two lovely bitches here, both of whom are are pointed and working toward the Championships we will achieve, your dog won't be going near either of them.

To be perfectly blunt, this whole thing stinks!

Biscuit, I got a kick out of your post, but this kind of thing hits a nerve with me every time....
