Line breeding

[mighty dino 9]

Would father over daughter be the best way to do it?

[south paw48 27]

Father to daughter matings can be ok sumtimes they can throw on the small side .

Depends what you're trying to achieve.

 

Line breeding is just a method of extracting as much genetic material from one particular dog as possible in each successive generation.

 

People talk about it like it's a universally agreed on method of breeding but when you ask them for details they all have their different methods, some people even call it family breeding when it's a bitch they're trying to extract genetic material from.

 

It's as risky method of breeding as the co-efficient of inbreeding can really stack up over several generations.

I usualy go half brother x half sister both with same sire different dam but i have gone sire over daughter before but my dog's are 6 inch tts have 7 toe's and 2 head's

Thats inbreeding not linebreeding, its very close but it can bring good results, is there a chance u cud put her grandsire over her instead?

[dillan 19]

Quickest way to replicate the parents good points but also can double up on bad points, be carefull research their history for any genetic faults. Like Wexford says thats inbreeding.

Agreed, in one generation you can only call it inbreeding, if you were to continue over several generations in a certain way then that's linebreeding.

 

Linebreeeding is inbreeding, inbreeding is not necessarily linebreeding.

Inbreeding .....If there already relly closely bred then I wouldn,t.... sometimes it works and sometimes its a disaster as we have found out.... be carefull

inbreeding is a shortcut to faults that linebreeding will throw out a few generations down the line ...
