Hi -

I have a quick question that I'm sure someone will know here. I'm not breeding and don't intend to, but I have this question because of something that I see on my dog's pedigree.
If dog A and bitch A has a litter, produce dog B. Then they have a litter and produce bitch B (separate litters). Then both B's produce pup C, is this sister and brother mating here? It seems to me it is - is that OK???? How close a relationship is it "accepted" to breed from????

Thanks
