advice on pedigree please
« on: January 09, 2009, 11:20:23 PM »
hello,
can anyone tell me when looking at a puppy pedigree if a bitch appears on both sides, the grandmother on the bitches side and the great grandmother on the dogs side, is that normal?
thanks

Yes perfectly normal it's what is termed as line breeding...look out for things like brother/sister - father/daughter etc this is what is termed as inbreeding.
