27┃ Beyond Average: What the 2024 ABA Winners Taught Us
About this episode
What does it really mean to raise the bar in modern dog breeding, and how do you avoid getting stuck on average?
In this final episode of the Annual Breeder Awards series, Sara and Isobel reflect on the standout stories shared throughout the season, from holistic Whippets and powerful Mastiffs to stud dogs backed by substance, not just style.
They dig into why structured breeding matters, how to learn from outside your breed bubble, and why recognising best practices isn't about ego but about progress. If you're ready to take the next step, you'll also hear how to apply for the 2025 ABAs and how joining the Brew Crew gives you access to the support, systems and community needed to keep doing things correctly.
