what would you do with this?
I have a litter of 9 pups that are 4 weeks old. The sire and dame are family bred and the BREEDER has been breeding this family a very long time
where I could use some advise from you gentlemen, and hopefully some of you breeders will chime in. 7 of the pups are representative in their markings and or coloration of what this line has produced over those years. But 2 look just like a dog that is way back in both peds. he is the son of one of the all time greats in the breed,and produced some damn fine animals himself. he was not the original out-cross his famous father was.
the male the pups look like can be found in the sire of my litters ped - 1x in the 5th gen - 2x in the 6th gen-and 1x in the 7th gen. in the dames ped he can be found 4x in the 7th gen.
when I did the ped analysis this dog has a granddaughter at 30% and a daughter at just under 28% in the ped.
The sire of my litter is extremely inbreed around the dog that this family is known for. so much so we wondered if we should do the breeding.( not sure if that helps or not but thought it may need to be included)
After that long winded explanation. My question is this. would you guys consider only the pups that look like what the family has shown over time to produce or would you take a chance on these two pups. I ask because I can only keep 3 of the nine here with me. 2 more will be with family near by, due to the fact I also have other dogs, and the owner of the sire will get pups as well. I know color doesn't matter. but i'm trying to build my yard, and i'm doing all the research i can, to try and not make that one mistake that I will always wind up regretting.
pups that don't stay will be leaving at 6-weeks.
Any and all thoughts are appreciated.
