    I'm not the guy to ask...but I will give it a stab.

    It should work both ways. If you stack curs you should get curs. If you stack game dogs you should get game dogs. Granted there are no guarantees. Breeding dogs should be about the selection of traits. The idea would be to consistently stack the same traits, preferably within the same family thru inbreeding and line breeding.

    I think using selection can work when out crossing as well.

    <a href="http://apbt.online-pedigrees.com/modules.php?name=Public&file=printPedigree&dog_id=319462">US 1'S DOOR STOP</a>

    This litter had 7 pups and 6 went to the show. Doorstop knocked out all his teeth early but was arguably one of the top two dogs in the litter.

    The Mims Spiffy/Lucky dogs are known to be offensively minded between the eyes head dogs. On paper the breeding looks like a total cross but as far as selection goes it was basically the same dogs. Damian was an incredibly hard mouthed offensively minded head dog, top of the muzzle and between the eyes.

    We got hard mouthed face dogs that were high percentage game with finish like the Spiffy/Lucky dogs and the hard mouth rough ass dogs like Damian. Both families seemed to amp the other.

    The when bred back to a Jiggs/Lucky female I got my Stump dog who had all those traits but he and his littermates added a fast mouth to boot.

    So long story short, we stacked traits, even from differing families, and got the traits that were stacked.

    My answer would be if you brother-sister dogs you will get a litter that is pretty much the average of what made the two. Even if a freak pops up odds are he throws his immediately families' average.

    Or maybe we just got lucky two or three breeding in a row. Damian to Holly to get to Door Stop. Then Door Stop to Bonnie to get to Stump and then Stump to Pancake to get to Hatchet.

    Babbling. Coming off a long night shift and trying to unwind before I crash for the day.

    Disclaimer: I know nothing about breeding dogs.

    I'm also wrong guy to ask about breeding mate, never bred enough litters to claim any knowledge on subject.. I never heard about brother x sister breeding producing curs until you mentioned it.. Had this one from a brother x sister mating..
    ONLINE PEDIGREES :: [64069] :: STILL GAME'S DORIS (online-pedigrees.com) A well bred female came from good people, probably one of worst working females I ever saw, but schooled into two CH's and never stop, bred her to some tight Reid/Scar blood and produced a litter of proper game dogs.

    I think source of Odbod's was mostly Limey Kennels blood with touch of Scotsman's Max through Cherry Bomb, I never liked Limey stuff too much, I know they was good dogs, but IMO they wasn't same standard as northern Reid crosses, but when it came to Odbod you just knew there was no guess work, he was hard on his dogs, his standard was very high and it showed where it mattered, so IMO Odbod could have done brother x sister breedings every time and you wouldn't get curs by simple virtue of his high standards and foundation his kennel was built on.

    Last time I was at Odbod's yard I saw this female and couldn't stop thinking about her for days she impressed me so much, other dogs looked great, but (for me) this one female jumped out from the rest.. Eventually my friend bought her and probably one of best females ever to come over the border.

    Thanks for the replys ... gamefowl men always say that one ace dog in a litter is no good to them as they are used in mains hence they want better averages in a litter

    You have to know the blood and dogs you are working and the main thing is have a eye for the dogs.
    Breeding is a art which can be perfected over time to get consistency and desirable traits but it is a long hard path it is not everyone's cup of tea.

    I always looked from different window, because i dont like watching to same view everytime, i enjoye seeing different things better things i am looking always for the best view . We know there is curs blood in every blood in every familly. Otherwise they wouldnt not give curs in some breedings. We know when you make a inbreeding, sometimes Lets say many times you lose some off the traits. Sometimes you doubled down on the best traits, you get the best traits stronger back in your production but sometimes if you not select good you are not that good in selection u can double down on one off bad imperfections. Thats is same with other techniek. Its al about the selection. You double down on good traits or bad traits. If u even make cross its also about selection yes? You breed only your best dogs yes? Saluut my brother. Respect to the ones who got this eyes and are willing to do hard selection

    Don’t know if people are understanding me right lol ... im not saying you can’t get a good game dog by brother x sister mating what i mean was ...is there a higher percentage of curs in that litter so therefore harder culling has to be done ?

    I've never heard of getting higher % of curs from that breeding only higher% of aul game plugs with no ability.. Same as with gamefowl... Not saying its not possible but wouldnt be a factor I'd be concerned about when doing that breeding myself

    I dont claim to know anything about breeding either but given ,most if not all strains have curs behind them,the bigger issue might be the loss of hybrid vigour.I had an inbred dog myself and went to someone who i knew that knew a lot about racing pigeons,for his opinion,and apparently it is a very common thing to do with the birds,but i always presumed it might be a bit more difficult with the dogs because of kennel space etc,He culls a lot of birds and is always looking for the benefits further down the road.What i mean is if you have a loft of say 130 birds and about a dozen or more stock birds,you dont mind culling etc to find the aces in a generation or two,but a lot of dogmen who maybe could only keep 2 or 3 dogs at a time woudnt entertain the idea,and who could blame them.just a thought anyways.

    I don't understand it , as I seen tight bred litters throw curs , scatter bred litters throw curs , there is no one ingredient , why would it throw more curs being brother and sister bred ? if thre back ground is full curs maybe , if full of game dogs maybe it throw lots of game dogs ?

    You will get curs in all litters but I believe there comes a time in the family of dogs that the percentage of curs is minimal.

    Odd bods own family of dogs was a phenomenal family in producing and replication of traits and high quality dogs.
    Tough as nail, solid bulldogs and you could tell his dogs a mile off.
