Sire is even more so BYB. The dam goes into some better lines on her dams side, but can see no rhyme or reason to the breeding to say that either dog is leaning to some line of breeding over another. This is not to say, that they are not good pet dogs, just that they can not be classified as Czech, WGWL, America, DDR,. If I had to choose one of the 4 types that you listed, I would say American.

Then looked up the dogs and they are both a mis-mash of everything...or so it seems...
I agree with others and it seems as though there were no thinking into the breeding...It seems that they had two dogs and just put them together...
I don't like telling others what to get and what not to get...But I'd advise you to re-think about getting a puppy from this breeding...
I always like to ask first...What is your goal in getting a puppy from this breeding...What are you wanting the puppy/dog for?

When I look at any breeding pair, I consider the breeding 'program' and if it seems the breeder has a plan or goal, or if it's just a matter of having female dog mated to male dog. I say to myself "what appears to be the goal' of this breeding?" and if the answer is not apparent or there seems to be no clear objective or plan, or it's a mish-mash, then I would pass.

More like someone wanted the female to have the experience of having puppies; really I would also reconsider as this is a breeding I would walk away from..... Not health tested dogs in the background; really health checks are very important in this breed ( as well as other breeds ) lots of not so healthy dogs used for breeding with not so good outcome.
There are very few known dogs in this pedigree.

Does a dog really have to go back to a "known" dog to be a good dog? I agree there should be some rhyme or reason for the breeding. Looking to achieve something other than puppies to sell.
Yes they need health testing whether they are Shown or Trialed.
Even BYB's can produce a quality product when thought goes into what they are doing.

WR, do you mean a quality product for the pet market?
and I'm just going to say right up front that people breeding dogs as a product is why the shelters are full of them.
