How much significance does a 3-4 Line breeding have.

It can have a little or a just a bit, depending on how strong the ancestor presents himself/herself, and what good traits/faults (if any) are present in those ancestors. For most ancestors there is not so much impact at 3-4, and it is far away enough that it does not represent an inbreed. Bob-O

What one is HOPING for with a 3-4 linebreeding, is to get certain (good) traits from the dog that was linebred on. It is far enough back that the traits should not be overpowering (this is good, because one must remember that you can get both the good and the bad in a linebreeding!).
