RE: NEW TO FORUM...NEW DOG...
Hi Kyleandrake! I too am a new Bee around these parts. However, I'll try and help you out OK. I raise German Shorthair Pointers and when it comes to their papers etc. I always like to incorporate some of the past pedigree into the dogs name.
Example: I purchased a young pup out of "Huds Kickin Up Dust" a field champion and last years top points earner for field trials in the AKC open dog division. Now when it came time to give the new pup his registered name, I looked over his pedigree and saw that some of his ancestors, had field championships to their credit. So I named the new pup
"Huds Dixeland City Slicker" using this well know field champions registered names in part. We call him "Clint" for short but his papers denote his well known bloodlines.
"Dixeland Rusty" was a champion and on the top side their were bloodlines going back to "City Slicker" breeding. This way when you look at pedigrees it is easyier to follow the breeding, muck like in quarter horses etc. I hope this helps you out some OK.
