Chad and Tracy Hines of Willow Creek Kennels explain how they make breeding decisions in their German Shorthaired Pointer program. Chad brings nearly four decades of experience breeding and developing dogs. They cover genetics, line breeding, outcrossing, early development, hunting ability, health, and conformation, and how they balance those factors when planning a litter.
