What are the basics involved in dog breeding?
I was making a project on dog breeding and one question came in my mind that I am writing here. The question is that how do the dog breeders decide about which two dogs are ideal for the breeding and what are the ways to recognize this thing? Regards!

Hey, do you know about the “Phenotype”. It is actually a common problem that typically takes the female regardless of bloodlines and breeding her to the stud. It’s called type breeding or breeding based on the appearance of the sire and the dam. Genotype breeding becomes quite complicated in that it requires a sound knowledge of the breed genetics and an understanding how the pedigrees relates to genetics. It is not for the novice people, it require more scientific approach. Answered by Anthony 2 years ago

You first need a clear perceptive of your dog’s breed that also includes what it was bred to do. After this you have to know the dogs you're considering – their positive and negative points. This contains conformation, movement, temperament etc. The actual idea is to choose dogs that complement each other. You also need to know the pedigrees of the prospective parents like their strong point and weaknesses. You examine the pedigrees. If the dogs that you are using are the result of outcrosses, it's not a good thing to do. If you are breeding dogs that came using the line breeding or in breeding then you have a much better idea of what you're going to get. Answered by doglover11 2 years ago

There are many things one should think before decide for this like percentage, the health clearness, the confirmation, the temperament etc. There are also many factors that decides if the dog should be bred or not and then finding the best dog to breed that dog to is a whole other thing that comes from a lot of experience and sometimes some help and advice from other breeders.

It’s nice to know that you have got this kind of topic for the project. It is quite a technical process. In this they first recognize their weak points and then according to the breed standards they choose the stud dog that is strong on those points. For instance if the dog eyes are lighter than they should be, the breeders chooses a dog who has a dark eyes and throw and do the breeding to throw dark eyed pups. After that they compare the pedigrees to see if they match with some related names and common backgrounds. It is actually named as Line Breeding. After satisfying they check for the breed specific problems like hip displaysia for instance. Answered by MAX 2 years ago
