You are doubling up on everything.
If these are AKC registered dogs that bred to the female a DNA will have to be completed do determine who the puppies belong to....as both can father a litter. |
It is all inbreeding to me, but I think the part you wrote about the DNA for 2 dads you are talk to the other person, because in my case there was not 2 dads. And I was trying to tell her about what could happen, it is done now, she just needs to make sure that anyone that gets a puppy understands what happened. In my case I sure had looked at the papers once the breeder I got her from mailed them to me, but I was just think in my hand that she knew who the parents was and still not sure how she had them mixed up. I was unset and was even questing if the papers I had went with the dog. So I did have her DNA test and the paper was hers the dad was the dad. It was a very bad over sight, I have learned not to go my what people say to looking into it for myself. But you are right if the dog above has mated with 2 males there does need to be DNA testing. Sorry about the inbreeding/ line breeding I don't like it what ever it is called it is the same to me.
