A Visitor asked the following question on 8/7/2007
I have no idea about how the inline breeding works exactly. I have people tell me it's ok to breed my dog with the son of my dog's liter mate. Is this true or will the puppies be born with health problems?

8/26/07 You should not breed closer than 3-2 or 2-3. This means one dog's grand-parent is the other dog's great-grand-parent. Anything closer than that is considered inbreeding, not line-breeding. I hope this helps. Nadia
