no technicaly you do not. You are making the chocies about breeding, so you now control the line. If I buy by pedigree, which I do, I want to buy from the original breeder, who designed the line and had a plan. You bought a peice of his line. If you bought an f3 of one of his line and an f5 from an unrelated line, you really have to completely differnt gene pools. The orginal breederd may have not intended that these lines be mixed. To many rookies think that the breeder line extend to the new owner. They do not. I own them they are mine. I develope my line from your lines, but becasue I make the choice in how I blened them they become mine. And the orginal ower should not take credit or shame form your success or failure. He conributed to your fate, good or bad, but you made the mating decisions.
