German import π½π§π€π¬π£ππ π«π€π’ πππππ©π―ππ§ πππ£π CGC CGCU is a large, beautiful and very strongly built son of the substantial V πΏπ€π£πππ¨π¨ π«π€π’ ππ‘π€π¨π¨ππ§ππππ£ AD IGP1. Not only is Brownie DDR Line 11E, but he is linebred 4-4,4,5 to one of the best producing Line 11E dogs in Germany, V πππ£ππ€ π«π€π’ πππͺπ¨ ππ§ππ¨ SCHH2 and descends directly to him via his paternal line. (4th gen) This is the same way the GDR of old bred their dogs; a dog following a particular sire line was also linebred to it to strengthen its potency. Being linebred eight times to Sando's paternal grandsire V ππ€π§π§π€ π«π€π’ ππππππ§ πππ‘π‘ SCHH3 FH (DDR 137140) (again, Line 11E) only reinforces the line's strength. Brownie boasts a strong Line 12 influence as well, with his 4,4-5,6 linebreeding on LGA competitor V πππ£π€ π«π€π’ πππ‘π¨ππ£π¨πππ‘π€Γ SCHH3 (LGA) FH2 IPO3, as well as additional linebreeding on Tino's sire, V πππ‘π€πͺ π«π€π’ πππ€π‘ππ£π¨ππ SCHH2. (DDR 156330) Tino passed on his strong drives and phenotype to his offspring, as seen in his son V πππ¨π₯πͺπ©ππ£ π«π€π’ ππ‘π€π¨π¨ππ§ππππ£ IPO3 FH2, in Brownie's third generation. Brownie's maternal line is a favorite of mine, going directly back to SG πππ£π π π«π€π’ πππ‘π‘ππ§π¨π©ππ SCHH3, a wonderfully built bitch who reproduced her type very well. Also seen in Brownie's 4th generation is another LGA competitor, V π½π§πππ£ π«π€π£ πππ§ ππ₯ππ§π‘ππ£ππ¨ππͺπππ© SCHH3 (LGA) FH2 IPO3. His blood continues in non pure DDR lines today, but is less common in pure lines. Brownie's 6,7-6,6,6,7,7,7 linebreeding on V πΌπ‘π π«π€π’ πΓΆπ§π£ππ§π¨ππ SCHH3 PSH1 (DDR 132543) and his linebreeding to Alf's son V πΓΆπ©π― π«π€π’ ππ§Γ€πππ£π©ππ‘ SCHH3 no doubt add a strong Line 13A influence, as well as his dam following Line 13A, with his maternal g.granddam being 13A as well. Further back he is linebred to 3x DDR SIEGER V ππ‘π π«π€π’ πΓΌπ§π¨π©ππ£πππ’π’ SCHH2, (DDR 130904) bringing in a bit of the now extinct (in pure lines) DDR Line 11A.
