Thoughts on this mating please.

There is a litter of pups from this dam

and sire

http://www.pedigreedatabase.com/german_shepherd_dog/dog.html?id=591149

that is due to be whelped this week. Does anyone have any thoughts on this mating please? I am looking first and foremost for a dog with a stable temperament that I could try IPO and maybe agility with.

Thanks in advance

I like the dogs in the pedigree, but that's a very close linebreeding on Fax. Do both parents have hip evals?

Thank you so much for your time Christine. I have no idea how to read a pedigree and what it all means

I am not sure as yet of the parents. The litter is due this week and I have only emailed the breeder at this stage. She said she will contact me after the whelping and we can have a chat then.

Is the close linebreeding a potential problem? Thank you again

It's early days yet Lauren!!! But this litter is expected to be all black beauties! Brad has finally weakened and said I can have another instead of him wanting a Great Dane!!!!

The blacks are the best!

I knew you would win over Brad!

I cant help but be excited for you and Moo!

Do you have a name in mind?

No not yet! We will have a 'discussion' over the name! I will show him the lists you sent me ages ago! But if the health doesn't check out, then I'm not prepared to risk it. Can't have another Wonky Donkey!

I did a mating test with sir and dam. Not sure what the plan is withthe breeding. That would be my first question to the breeder. What are you looking to produce with this pairing?

Mating test - German Shepherd Dog

I hope the link comes up for the mating test.

Linebreeding - 5 generations

4 - 5............................................. in SG Mink vom Haus Wittfeld
4 - 5............................................. in Cindy vom Lelbacher Hexenteich
4 - 5............................................. in Centa Kanicky les
3 - 4............................................. in Fee am Pilgerbach
3 - 4............................................. in SG Dolf ze Zakovy hory
4 - 5............................................. in Bero vom Friedersdorfer Flur
2 - 3............................................. in Fax Vom Grenzgänger

A lot of common ancestry, and unless you really know what you are doing and what they are all producing, you can really go wrong or really do great.

Thank you very much Dawn.

Unfortunately I need a translator! I really have no idea what I am looking for/or is not desirable. Molly is the first PB I bought and that has been a bit of a fizzer so to speak. I have only had SPCA x breeds before. I am lost!

You should get some strong working dogs, and that's always a good start.
