Why the confusion ? The puppy in the first post is the result of INBREEDING and that is very risky - should almost NEVER be done - it is not the same as line breeding and I was only answering the post that grouped two types ( inbreeding and line breeding ) as both unacceptable which is what I disagreed with. To finish this and not cloud it more let me state that there are three practices of breeding #1 is line breeding and is good when done properly
#2 is out breeding which is like a roll of the dice and # 3 is inbreeding which is totally unacceptable unless you really know what you are doing and are trying to correct a definite and identifiable fault.
Now did I confuse you more or did I help

I hope I helped as that is my intention. I don't often post but the breeding issue which I have devoted my dog breeding life to really gets me going if I see misinformation being passed along.
