Dangers of dog inbreeding and line breeding

[@8675-__]

Breeding is a lot more complicated than people think. Thanks for clarifying this point to us. And explaining the facts 🙏

[@LittleImpaler]

Especially breeding purebreds. Because you have to look for at the pedigree to make sure that dog has no inbreeding in line.

[@guardianofthehive6427]

Great information ! I would like to make a point that all pure bred dogs have different amounts of inbreeding COI rates as a base line . A breed that has a large amount of genetic diversity is different from a breed with a very small gene puddle . The rates of interbreeding in regards to the negative effects can differ greatly according to these rates.

[@damaristighe3227]

James. Thanks for this great information on genetics for breeders.

[@LittleImpaler]

Fantastic video.

[@BorderlandTerriers]

We use line breeding and crosses with in a line for are working terriers. Combinations of 3/4 - 1/4's , 50/50's and 1/4 - 3/4's. Traits we look for Size build temperament, location ability.

[@LittleImpaler]

Why would you do that? That's why inbreeding is bad. Keeping a trait forsaken the dog's health. Breeders need to breed for function rather than looks.

[@Hartls1990]

​@@LittleImpalerit's very hard to fix genes for a certain function too as when you always outcross you end up with dogs all over the place temperament and performance wise

[@LittleImpaler]

@@Hartls1990 Not if you carefully select for temperment

[@Hartls1990]

@@LittleImpaler that's very hard to do as with everything more genetic diversity means more phenotype diversity and more temperamental diversity, you would need a way bigger yard and keep way more dogs than you would be able to take good care of

[@LittleImpaler]

@@Hartls1990 What does having a bigger yard have to do with anything? Breeding for good sound temperament. You find a dog with the qualities you like. This could take a while. I am not talking about just breeding any dog with another dog. Which I said by careful section. For example. If I want a dog with low prey drive, low engery, you don't breed a dog with high engery. You breed for qualities you like.

[@miroslavpenchev5603]

Inbreeding should be done by someone who understands genetics. If you are a breeder you cannot produce extreme quality unless you inbreed, but the trick is to cull every offspring that don't make the cut.

[@nivisky]

What do you mean by cull

[@miroslavpenchev5603]

@@nivisky To give away the weak ones

[@nivisky]

@@amankrusch5318 if they are using genetic testing chances are they are doing it correctly and are not producing major defects in puppies. The puppy just won’t be of breeding quality and will then be pet homed and should be spayed or neutered.

Does Sable carry brindle? Or is it like fawn

[@stevecrump4429]

Sable is in the A locus sable is a fawn color.

[@ZKMcr]

So if both parants have brown eyes but carry blue can they produce a bleu eyed baby

[@8675-__]

Yes, but not often

[@amankrusch5318]

Is different coloured eye a mutation to carry on to the next generation? Its just a colour oddity right?

[@8675-__]

Yes, I believe it can be passed on genetically

[@downrightskye]

What are your thoughts on embark testing?

[@mikeys1585]

Question, what should I breed my female to for best results color wise? She’s a blue and tan covered in cream. at/at , carries coco.

[@rhysdavis6447]

I’ve got exact the same bitch, I suppose Isabella or fluffy is the way to go. Get yourself th best stud dog and it will pass 50% onto the litter that’s probably the best you can aim for and leave the dna gods pick colours I’d expect some blue and tans and lilacs and tan plats with them all carrying Isabella 🍫

[@8675-__]

Breed her to a black sire

[@LittleImpaler]

Don't breed for looks. Breed for function and health.

[@vanessapayne5742]

Hi from the uk. Is there a genetic test for sable? Is it a dominant or recessive gene? Find your videos so interesting. 👍🏼

[@boribonez9874]

Yes there is sable is ay/At if there’s any d/d you get blue sable. Depending on the code you will get a fawn carrying the tri or the fawn will give the At gene a chance to show slightly

[@8675-__]

It depends on the breed.

[@Loud127]

Can you make a video on hairless frenchies? They’re actually making them

[@8675-__]

In America they call them hairless terriers and are very uncommon

Good stuff ty

thank you

Was this discussion sparked by my comment that I left on your recent Q&A’s?

[@Ohtanix7]

My merle doesn’t have red eye glow is that possible ?

[@damiancampoz4493]

Hello I had an important question I bought a blue merle boy he has not been DNA chick but my question is is it ever possible do ever have a dog that carries two copies of cocoa with no red eye glow has it ever happened or is it even possible that's all I want to know, because he is kind of strange this one sometimes his eyes glow red on the side and turn back to Blue and also he is a blue merle like I said but he is starting to develop gold patches in his paws not too big but still about the size of an eraser of a pencil but have you ever seen it happen is it even possible? The no red eye glow without both copies of cocoa or chocolate

[@anushkaathukorala_vonserendib]

what size rod do u guys use to inseminate French BD? 6 inch or 9 inch??

[@phillipmorgan4260]

😂 idk if this a joke

[@LittleImpaler]

I don't why some breeders still do this, when we know it's bad.

[@Justthemow]

You wouldn’t never worry about the male you never breed up stream back to the mother always down stream from father to daughter and only 1/4 of the pups would have he gotten the bad gene line breeding is different then Inbreeding I have had dogs that were pure huneybunch in their 6/7 generations and not a single genetic defect but I never went son to mother always father daughter grand daughter uncle great uncle to niece

[@davidalencar7992]

His the best!

[@jediriket9586]

Quality information!

[@Kathleen-Wellner]

You better know your lines like the back of your hand ✋ And that is no guarantee you didn't double up on genetic defects. We seem to have so called breeders breeding mother son and have no clue the on the genetic background in the pedigree.. Absolutely stupidity 🙄

[@toddbrommel9803]

I love your pundit squares but you really should say they have a 25% chance not 1/4 of the litter. cause a lot of people think thats guarantee to get colors when it's percentage of a chance. Think about it if you only have 2 pups what determines who gets what colors

[@LoveMyPups]

Yes correct

[@johnnymanziel6128]

Have you ever seen a merle that doesn’t get the eye change ? No blue eye just brown eyes

[@aliciavives4240]

Yes, not all merles get blue eyes.

[@LittleImpaler]

My blue merle Great Dane has beautiful brown eyes.

[@MeghanBrowning-cy3tm]

I've had two accidental inbred litters. First one was fine, except for kinked tails. This was Boxers. Second one was one stillborn puppy and one born with it's intestines outside its body. I would never do it again. Now, linebreeding is sonetimes okay. Would i do it? No. I no longer breed dogs that share any relatives in a three generation pedigree. Five generations, maybe, if there is only one crossover 😉 seven generations out, I don't care 😭

How could u breed youre clone to yourself if u r both male or both female?? Lol

It’s not one strand of a double helix you get from each parent. It’s one copy of each chromosome.

And each chromosome coffee is made up of double-stranded DNA.

Frenchy breeder speaking on genetics or the sins of line breeding ???? WTH? Frenchie’s are the one of the most genetic joke in canines. Sins in dog breeding are most of the time bad selection. Frenchie’s have been selected on unhealthy mutations and complete cosmetic nonsense . In nature inbreeding, linebreeding and outcrossed are selected by superior function selection pressure This is the key to healthy dogs, selecting on cosmetic whim and deforming mutations is the recipe for genetic distribution All breeds are inbred to some extent. The longer they go without a true outcross the more inbred they become. Inbreeding alone is not the greatest sin, selection on faulty weak breeding dogs is the huge problem It goes way off track from the example of Mother Nature who inbreeds, linebreed and outcrossed , but selects on the most functional individuals
