brenner 773 Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 Its been done for years with every , working, fighting, racing animal since man bred for particular desirable traits in their animals. Be it dog, gamefowl, horse or ferret. If i had a bitch of any breed of dog that had all the right working traits i was looking for and her son was strong in all the same defining traits the mother had, i would definetly breed this way for the simple reason that i would dramatically increase my chances of locking in these particular traits in the offspring. Some might argue that you just have to find an unrelated stud dog that is strong in said traits your breeding for, but genetics doesnt make it as easy as that. The chances of locking in particular traits would not be as strong. Having said all that... If mother and son are just good dogs in their own indavidual ways and they do not really shine in a way that puts them head and shoulders above the rest ,well then ide probably just use an unrelated stud that is strong in the traits im after or ideally is known to produce offspring with the traits im after and as someone said already about faults.. you would have a the same chances of locking in bad traits if they have them as you would good in a mother x son mating .

A.t.b bren... Perfectly put! Mother son should in theory produce a 3/4 of the bitch/mother and 1/4 of the pups sire. Be getting very close to a clone of the bitch, as has been said. Provided there arent common faults in the mother and son in which case they will be twice as prominant in the resulting litter. 1 Quote Link to post

Dunkanon 380 Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Im not a breeder and don't perpetuate a line but If I did I would have no problem with that type of mating. Ive seen quite a few dogs double and triple bred to the same sire or dam and been plenty good ones, also known of a few even further folded in that that. 1 Quote Link to post
