| Breeding brothersand sisters is inbreeding and should only be tried by those with many years of experience with that particular line. The parents of both pups would have to be fantastic examples of the breed and generations cleared of all genetic faults, few if any meet the qualifications. Breeding is serious business, I'd leave inbreeding to the experts.

| If you are talking about breeding a brother and sister that came from two different litters I would say no. Inbreeding is something best left to those that are very experienced. |

| No, that would not be a good idea for one to do that. It occasionally might be done by experienced breeders, but just by the fact that you asked the question shows that you are not experienced. |

Donating YT 10K Club Member | The advised relationship for in breeding is a pairing between a neice/uncle...nephew/aunt.

| Breeding sibblings, even if they are from diferent litters, is not a good idea and yucky too, IMO |

| breeding One aspect of a good breeder is, having good common sense..do you think breeding a full brother and sister makes good sense? Your answer will determine my next post...since you asked for advise. |
