They were having issues in Germany years ago, with genetic defects because of the concentrated gene pool.....when they started importing Biewers to the US, with all the Biewers we have here, I am not knowledgable enough to try to direct you.....I would contact a Biewer registry to get my questions answered....You need to do the genetic testing on both dam and sire, and really be knowledgable about the pedigrees of both.....that way, you will know if one or the other throws pups with genetic issues....bad knees, bad eyes, liver, heart, kidney issues, etc.....out crossing those two pedigrees in itself, is not a bad thing....it is just if you have no idea what is behind your breeding pair's heritage.....knowledgable, educated outcrossing of pedigrees is actually a good thing. | I just know that big Biewer people and Biewer breeders frown upon it big time because there has been a post on here about it and they see it as mix breeding like if you bred a maltise and a yorkie.
