It is not being neither in this instance, at least for my own kennel it is more a matter of time, I can wait until the option to use a diluted offspring and get the same COI as it would be more PC or double up on the dam and get more of the same.
We have both unrelated and closely related dogs we can use regardless, however options are limited by time as under the system these are bred bitches are limited to so many litters and a cut off age and stud dogs are off the can use list after a certain age as well.
The best source of reference we have is the performance bred dogs, pointers and setters, greyhounds and even game bred pit bulls and of course tussocks own American bull dogs, likewise the working stock dogs are a handy source of reference including the outcrossing to other breeds.
