How I Can Help Your Program And What I Do:  Records are kept of every greyhound that wins top grade at major tracks, littermates are also watched.  Pedigree's are then researched and kept on record of each racer.  Matching up your dam to a sire that will best compliment her is not easy, I look at the bloodlines that are best producing not just from last generation but as far back as five generations ago which is extremely important for future generations.  Speed plays a big part in each pairing, to much early speed may produce runners who fade at the end, to much late speed may produce runners that are just quite late in getting through the pack.  My job is to find both early & late speed throughout pedigree's of both sire and your dam that will best fit.  Sounds easy but really isn't, I do research personally on each and every line that has certain traits and where those traits are best utilized for the future of your racers.  Having a dam that never made the track doesn't mean she can't be a good producer back on the farm, likewise having a dam that ran and won top races does not mean she'll be a good producer, you must know what your breeding to now and what was bred generations ago to get good results.  In the past and now many litters/pups have turned out to be "bombs" even by going to the top studs who "seem" to be producing top runners, and they are but only with that perfect match-up, there are also other sires that are not favored but can & will produce top grade results if bred properly.  If your program needs a lift let me help you by staying away from "bad breedings".
