What Are The Best Crossbred Dogs? by Faccouk(m): 6:48pm On Apr 30, 2018 |
There is no such thing as a "best" dog breed. Certain crossbreds are, however, so well-established, that they are often informally identified as purebreds. Some of these crossbreeds include: American Bully (American Pit Bull Terrier + Staffordshire Bull Terrier) Black and Tan Coonhound (Bloodhound + Black and Tan Virginia Foxhound) Bull Terrier (Old English Bulldog + Old English Terrier) Eurasier (Chow Chow + Keeshond or Samoyed) Miniature Pinscher (German Pinscher + Italian Greyhound or Dachshund) Vizsla (Weimeriner + German Shorthaired Pointer) Do keep in mind, however, that not all purebreds or crossbreeds will exhibit the desired traits or temperament of their parents. Breeding always incorporates the risk of inherited breed-specific health issues and similar negatives attached to concentrating a genetic pool. Traits like aggression and genetic malformations can be more common in intentionally bred dogs if not done responsibly. 1 Like |

Do you see bro, breeding isn't 1+1. There are required skills set one should posses before involving in it, and part of these skill set is a good knowledge of genetics. True that many breeds were formed out of pairing two or more other breeds, but for a fact, it wasn't a recognised breed until they had over 5generations. So to think pairing an apbt and a bulldog to give a bullypit is a successful project at first generation is a big joke. It's a selective process until one has successfully made a stamp on genotype and phenotype through the effective use of breeding tools (inbreeding, line breeding etc). We're talking YEARS bro and definitely not 5years. So really you don't wanna involve in crossbreds, it's a huge task and capital intensive project. 2 Likes |
