This time around and early in the game I started with a 50 pound dog...redbone pitbull mix...I saw 5 of his brothers and he was about in the middle...bred him to a 35 pound Kemmerer gyp and now have 2 males out of that cross and they are about 60 pounds...bred one of those pups to a 50 pound plott gyp and the 4 pups I kept will average about 60 pounds...

Line breeding in my opinion also brings in new blood...inbreeding brings in very little...I think it will not be a problem until we see t or 6 generations of tight breeding...
