Among the owners of purebred dogs, there is a large percentage of breeders - people who are seriously engaged in breeding this or that breed, and approach breeding seriously and responsibly, trying to improve and improve the breed. In order to become a breeder, you must take into account a lot of subtleties and nuances, without which dog breeding will not be correct, and you must also take on a lot of responsibility and be willing to spend a lot of time and money. Dog breeding can only make money for you after you invest a lot of money and energy in your dogs, as well as have the patience necessary to achieve results.
Instructions
Step 1
Having determined what breed you would like to breed, take care of finding breeding champion dogs that have received the appropriate title at shows and do not have genetic and hereditary defects. Get dogs from a good line and mate with dogs of a similar high level.
Step 2
Mating dogs should be planned so that the most successful and perfect puppies are obtained from the combination of genes. Thus, good mating options are considered to be a combination of grandfather and granddaughter, uncle and niece, aunt and nephew, grandmother and grandson, as well as half-brother and half-sister if they have a common outstanding parent.
Step 3
When mating dogs, you should keep in mind detailed information about the recessive genes of each dog, multiplying their positive characteristics by mating. There should be no serious genetic defects in the herd, otherwise they will be passed on to the puppies.
Step 4
For the most qualitative selection of livestock, get a special kennel file, in which there will be a description of each of the dogs - in the dog's card, you can specify detailed information about the pedigree and physical characteristics.
Step 5
If, for some reason, there are two dogs with the same disadvantage in the herd, never mate them. It is possible to eliminate the shortage in the livestock by the same method as to enhance a good characteristic - through selection and outbringing, eliminating their livestock recessive genes that affect negative characteristics.
