O.K so the topic was brought up on a different thread and I would like to hear some other people's thought on this... For those of you that don't know what culling is it is the process of eliminating certain characteristics (or reinforcing others) in a breed... ie, a cur APBT would be culled so it would not "pollute" the gene pool with that undesirable trait (I am speaking of old times) or a slow racing grey hound if you will or even an unstable dog. This would ensure that only the characteristics that are desired get passed along and no "mistakes" happen later on with the undesirable dog. BTW culling can mean "fixing" but generally means putting the animal to sleep.
