Dog breeding: matching dogs of the same breed without close relatives

This is the most common method of dog breeding. It only needs to meet two conditions: 1. Same dog breed; 2. The kinship is within 5 generations. The above male and female dogs mate. This kind of mating can maintain some of the advantages of dogs while avoiding the shortcomings of inbreeding. It is a very popular selection method.

Dog breeding: cross-breeding

Cross-breeding means using different types of dogs to breed offspring. The advantage of cross-breeding is that it can produce hybrid vigor. Such puppies are very "firm" and are "hybrids" just like humans. Such puppies will have better vitality and production performance and are less likely to get sick.
But unfortunately, the names of this kind of puppies are not very pleasant, and they are often called "Chuan'er" or "mutt dog". At the same time, it is often difficult to participate in various dog competitions because of impure blood. If you care about your dog's pedigree, don't let your dog mate in this way.

Dog Breeding: Inbreeding

Inbreeding means that the male and female dogs have a close blood relationship, such as: father and daughter, mother and son, brother and sister, half-mother. , mating between half-mothers and half-fathers. The purpose is to obtain excellent genetics and fix the dog's traits.
However, this shortcoming is also obvious and often leads to a large number of genetic diseases, such as: weak disease, multiple diseases, poor life expectancy, low conception rate, few litters, unstable temperament, congenital defects (such as lack of Teeth, cleft palate, deformity, inverted eyelashes, blindness, deafness, cryptorchidism) and other phenomena.
Of course, inbreeding is not absolutely unavailable. By taking advantage of certain characteristics of inbreeding, which is easy to purify, you can screen a large amount of materials to cultivate ideal pure breeds. But under normal circumstances, if there is no need to breed purebred dogs or compete in competitions, it is recommended that everyone try to avoid this method.
