I have never done any line breeding but I do have a ? I have a male dog I really like. I recently bred him to a female that's a decent dog. Well I ended up with 5 male pups off of them. But I recently picked up a female pup off of the male dogs sister which would be his niece. What should be my next steps. I'm thinking breed him back to his niece and then when them pups come and start going breed one of them females to one of the 5 other pups I have which would be half bro x half sister crosses or would this not be good
Bo Pugh, do you have any pedigree information on your dogs? I'd like to try and help you answer your question.
i do not have any pedigree information on the dogs i have, but what i do have is one male dog i really like he is what i want to build off of from here on out, hes the kind of dog that really suites me i would really like to duplicate him into about 10 pups and keep them all, the female i bred him to is a pretty nice dog as were her parents shes bred right to and i ended up with 5 male pups off of the two, and i just recently acquired a neice thats about a year old to my male dog. we have always bred good dog to good dog but you never know what your going to get and i know nothing about line breeding could i breed my male to his niece and then later on down the road breed one of my male pups to his half sister or would they come out with three eyes or something and whats the difference in line breeding and inbreeding
