Quote: However, breeding with the knowledge that you are almost certain to produce whelps that will need to be culled is a different ball game IMO.
Yes, but you cull them out. Not all of them are gonna be messed up. However, that can happen, but that tells you that what you are breeding is genetic trash, and to start over. LOL
However, and trust me on this, if you have stock that is not all recessived up with crap, you are gonna make some nice stuff.

inbreeding is risky but it's also telling and can produce amazing results if done well. i for one think if i had dogs with the lines this pup is carrying i would want to be kept in the loop because he will show all those genetic nooks and cranies that get glossed over in out crossing. i don't think inbreeding aka close linebreeding is something to fear but should be respected and something best left to the real pros so a big no-no for the average breeder. in this situation - this accidental breeding - it sounds like kim was wise enough to get herself some great lines and the inbreeding might actually produce a dog with the right genes being concentrated - time will tell. and like i said if i had dogs with these lines i would sure keep tabs on this pup.
