๐ฝ๐๐จ๐๐ค๐ฅ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐ก๐ค๐ง๐ค is a direct grandson of V ๐ฝ๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ฉ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐ค๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐ช๐ฃ๐ IPO3, who produced a lot of drive as well as very good hip scores to his progeny. Most Line 5A dogs today descend directly back to DDR SIEGER V ๐ฟ๐ช๐ญ ๐ซ๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ช๐ง๐ SCHH3 FH, (DDR 16213) however males descending from Bandit go directly back to 3x DDR SIEGER V ๐๐ง๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐ก๐จ๐๐ฃ๐จ๐ฉ๐๐๐ฃ SCHH3 FH (DDR 15248) instead. Bishop is not only Line 5A himself, but both of his parents imported from Germany are also Line 5A, strengthening its qualities, as the GDR of old primarily did with their breedings. Bishop offers a very diverse pedigree with no linebreeding within the first 5 generations. He has a strong Line 11D influence as well, with his linebreeding further back to LGA competitor V ๐ฝ๐ง๐๐ฃ๐๐ค ๐ซ๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ก๐๐ช๐จ๐ SCHH3, (SG-LGA) (5-6) paternal grandson of the legendary SG ๐๐ค๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐ก๐๐๐จ๐๐ง๐๐๐๐๐ SCHH3 FH3 3x DDR-MS SIEGER EUROPAMEISTER, (DDR 131345) whom he is also linebred to six times. As well as eight times to V ๐ฝ๐๐ง๐ ๐ค ๐ซ๐ค๐ฃ ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ค๐ก๐๐จ๐รถ๐๐ก๐ 2x DDR-MS SCHH3 FH3. (DDR 131226) Additionally, Bishop is linebred fourteen times further back to Lord and Birko's sire, V ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐กรค๐ข๐๐ฃ๐๐จ-๐๐๐ฃ๐ SCHH2 FH. (DDR 108072) Line 11D SG ๐๐ฉ๐ฏ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐รค๐๐๐ง๐ก๐๐๐จ๐๐ก SCHH3 FH2 IPO3 in his fourth generation brings it up closer, as well as Bandit v Thostgrund's damsire, V ๐พ๐ก๐๐๐ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐๐ง๐๐๐ง๐๐๐๐ SCHH3, also in Bishop's 4th gen. Bishop's dam ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐ง๐ง๐'๐จ ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ brings in diverse bloodlines as well. Her sire SG ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐ง๐ง๐'๐จ ๐ผ๐ง๐ง๐ฎ IPO2 is a son of SG ๐๐ค๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ง ๐๐๐ฃ๐ SCHH3, who is in turn a son of the beautiful and substantial SG ๐ฟ๐ช๐ญ ๐ซ๐ค๐ข ๐พ๐ก๐๐ช๐จ๐๐๐ง๐ SCHH3 FH2. His maternal line as a whole brings in minimal linebreeding, furthering the diversity that Bishop has to offer the modern DDR gene pool.
