This breeder I watch attack other sound breeders. The breeders he attacks put his program at risk of being questioned, because he breeds solely based off a pedigree and will tell other breeders that genetic testing is not accurate. He wants to be revered and he will trash and bash anyone he wants to get that. Many follow him blindly, but don't know that he is steering them for years of work instead of purchasing nice dogs that are structurally sound and genetically healthy.
His followers are like a cult and they will trash you if you don't agree with him. Steer clear and stay low on the radar or feel his wrath.
Benjamin Lodebar Huckaby of Powehouse Dachshunds produces genetically effected dogs. I have one that has an overbite and ridgeback due to being inbred. I found out he does not genetically test his dogs, but he assured me that this dog was one of his best. I am outraged at the quality of puppies he produces and I don't think that he needs to be breeding.
He has a facebook page where he promotes healthy dogs, but in reality they are inbred and inline bred in order to keep the lines that he has. He brings in no new blood and he is passing on horrible genetics to his puppies. These dogs later on in their years will experience alot of problems.
