I have never tried line breeding dogs but I raise some good bred registered horses and some of those happen to be line bred way down. I have a male and female cur dogs that are both hard working hog catching machines and they have the same father but different mothers. Would anyone recommend I cross them?
Half bro x Half sister is one of the best breedings that can be done in my opinion.
Why because they either have the same sire are dam and what that does is gives you 50% if one of those is your main type of blood. Then there is a 1/4 on the top side that gives you a out and there is a 1/4 on the bottom side that gives you a out . So you got 50% your main blood and 50% outs which this gives the blood room to breath and collect some Hybird Vigor.
The thing I like about these breedings you can take one heavy heavy line bred dog off your breeding program were the sire and damn are kin and then take a gyp that is off that same sire but is bred to a pure out cross so she is 50% your blood and 50% out . You breed these two together and they got the same sire plus your male dog is heavy heavy line bred off of your blood and you breed this to the gyp that is off the same sire but her bottom side is a pure out so now what the pups fall back to is 3/4 your main blood with a 1/4 pure out and are half bro x half sister.
If you know what your blood crosses well with man the sky is the limit in half bro x half sister breedings. Hell you can start a whole line of dogs off these kinds of breedings .
I always tell people that have these great dogs and gyps get them bred twice to good dogs and then do the half bro x half sister breeding . Hell yeah man do it !
