Please help me to understand? 10. Inbreeding is a valuable tool, being the fastest method to set good characteristics and type. It brings to light hidden traits that need to be eliminated from the breed. Otherwise, it's a good link! Marie-Pier | ||

Line/in-breeding is the fastest way to bring out positives and (possibly hidden) negatives that the dogs may carry. There is a great book I mentioned a few threads down....Pick it up Marie-Pier....You will love it!! There is no beginning or end. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. | ||

It is up to the breeder...Some countries have laws about tightly using it. IMO it shouldn't be used unless you have about 3 generations IN YOUR HOUSE of these dogs...You need to know the lines used inside and out....It is Not an art, but a science. Study Study Study...And take your time! There is no beginning or end. Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. | ||
