Inbreeding - Page 1

I have a rescue bitch and i also have her pedigree Kenmillto sauron have a look at her breeding,

Why do breeders do this? Apart from her breeding line she is a great dog and has no problems with her hips, And we love her.

WOW,

That's sad, cause mostly all the dogs in her pedigree are just mediocre, it looks like a puppy mill pedigree,

unless it was an accidental breeding.   I wonder how her hips are?

None of her relatives look like they did anything.........

I know this couple that purchased a lab from pick a pup kennel in Iowa,
and they wanted to breed her, so they did x-rays, she had no hip sockets
but she could still run & jump, it was just muscle holding her legs up, they were amazed she 
could walk!

She is very beautiful!  Sounds like you are enjoying her!      And who knows why any one would breed that combo.

Thanks misrasmom

I have had her checked by the vets a load of times as i had her at 7 months she is now 5 yrs i have not had her x-rayed but the vet says her hips feel fine i had her done ages ago so there is no chance of mating it was only recently i did her 5 generation pedigree and saw her breeding lines and was taken a back by what i saw, I just cant see the point in breeding like this. Apart from pannas shes healthy and a loving good natured girl.

The bitch Kara vom Nizetstolz ( your dog's grand dam on the mother side ) has some good lines, just the male that your girl was inbred on may be garbage. Your bitch may also be a mistake breeding.
