"UNDERSTANDING THE BREEDING PRACTICES OF BREEDERS FOR DOGS"
At Ben's American Bulldogs we pracice outcross breeding and line breeding, there is also other practices like
inbreeding and crossbreeding.Many people with little knowledge about dog breeding will ask questions using the
phrases pure bred, well bred,over bred,in-bred, or line bred without knowing what these terms mean.
OUTCROSSING BREEDING:Is when you take a male and female dog of the same breed but have no relatives that
are the same. It is similar to putting two dogs of different breeds together as they do not have any
relatives. When you mix breeds or outcross in the same breed of dogs, the puppies could have three
different looks. Some may look like the mom, some like the dad,and some may have neither the mother
nor the father’s appearance.In outcross breeding the appearance (similarities and differences with the
parents) are immediately noticeable. However, the health and temperament of the outcross breeding takes
longer to distinguish. People often believe that, because the outcross is a blending of two non related
dogs, there is an averaging of the parents’ characteristics in their offspring.
One would think that more blending of size, shape, coat, ear length, and temperament and health factors would take
place. But this is not true, as I stated before, the puppies could look nothing like either parent. One upside to
the outcross breeding is a thing called Hybrid Vigor. Hybrid vigor means that when you cross breed you get healthier,
stronger specimens.However, not all cross breeding produce hybrid vigor because this is not a perfect world. Obviously,
you need to have two healthy, genetically clean parents to start—knowing the background of the sires and dams is
important in any breeding.Outcross breeding is a good breeding practice and the research of the sire/dam can reduce the
occurrences of these issues.With outcross breeding there is a concern with performance.
LINE BREEDING means breeding two animals of the same breed, within the same family. Typical line breeding practices
are to breed a ½ brother to a ½ sister, a granddaughter to a grandfather, a niece to an uncle, and so on. Line breeding
is a less judicious process. The key to successful line breeding is honesty. You can kid yourself or be in denial or
as we say in the dog world Kennel Blind. Linebreeding has to be done one litter at a time. It needs to be evaluated and
a judgment made as to whether it should be done again.
Line breeding can pass along physical, temperament, and performance traits: good and bad. If you breed two dogs with
the same physical problems, you will probably have those problems with the pups. If you breed two dogs that are very
timid, that trait will probably come out in the pups. The upside in line breeding is that the puppies will have
uniformity in color, shape, and size. You will have a litter of puppies that look alike.Some breeders will line breed
once or twice followed by an outcross and then breed back to the line breed family evaluating the puppies produced in
each breeding. It is important to mention that a breeder should know as much as possible about the history of both the
sire and dam in every breeding.
INBREEDING is the breeding of close relatives not separated by more than one generation, such as brother to sister,
father to daughter or mother to son. This method is used to concentrate good qualities in the line but may also
concentrate bad qualities. Only the most experienced breeders should be willing to attempt this method and be willing
to make possible hard decisions with respect to the resulting. Some people consider breeding full brothers to full
sisters or fathers to daughters to be LINE BREEDING, when in actuality this is called INBREEDING.
There are major reasons for breeders that are using inbreeding practices are looking for a diamond in the rough,they
will forfeit the health and temperament of much of a litter in order to get one or maybe two great dogs. Inbreeding
may happen by accident where littermates may accidentally breed. There are some breeders plan such practices. Breeders
of national caliber show and field dogs will partake in this type breeding in order to produce the next national
champion or superstar. If the litter has physical or temperament problems with some or all of the pups, the breeder is
willing to take the risk for the chance of producing the future national champion. Breeders will often sell the
inferior littermates at a discounted price and will label them as pet quality dogs. Through no fault of the puppy, it
is actually a genetic time bomb waiting for something to go wrong.
The health and temperament of all our 100% Johnson American Bulldog Puppies is a priority with us at Bens American Bulldogs.
We will not risk an entire litter for just one superstar therefore, we do not practice inbreeding and believe that
continual inbreeding should not be done ,but in very very rare cases.That is the veiw of Ben's American Bulldogs.
CROSS BREEDING is the practice of using two different breeds of dog to make one ,such as a Lab-A-Doodle etc,,,
