Linebreeding is one of the most talked-about and misunderstood topics in dog breeding.
In this episode, Kathy Rust is joined by Andrea Jordan-Lane (Jordean Brittanys), Lexa Richmond (Hialeah Dachshunds), and Lisa Braun (Mischief Papillons & Miniature American Shepherds) to discuss how intentional linebreeding can help breeders understand and build their bloodlines over generations.
They explore how many generations it can take to establish type, Lloyd Brackett's breeding theory, triangle breeding theory, the importance of the sire & dam line, COI numbers, repeat breedings, and knowing when it may be time to outcross.
💬 "One of the biggest things I've seen is novices get caught up on the whole linebreeding thing and linebreeding on the wrong dogs. They need to be superior animals and complement each other and don't double-up on faults."
Andrea Jordan-Lane (Jordean Brittanys)
