okay. if you have a mom and daughter. and you mate them both to unrelated males, are the bloodlines too close to mate pairs of the pups? like one pup from the mother's litter and one pup from the daughter's litter? I wouldn't be mating the mom to the father of the daughter. both males would be from unrelated lines. The only reason I am even asking is because I'm trying to get some lines with the recessive e. I don't want to inbreed closely . . . and since it's said I shouldn't leave the mom alone, or should find another mate for the boy, I'm wondering if this would work.
