Well yes they can breed, but they should not. A breeding like that takes a lot of research and health testing, is VERY expensive (because of the testing), only very experienced breeders should even think about attemping a breeding like this. A lot of people have created a lot of problems in our breeds by doing breedings like this when they don't know enough to do it correctly.

You can bake dogs from any litter, but they'll never be bread.

Genetics and DNA are not chsanged just by being from different litters. Dogs who are interbreed will carry with any genetic problems and they be magnified. Also according to my understanding interbred dogs will also be possibly sicker than most. Mr Bill

It's possible but a terrible idea. Inbreeding only makes all the bad and undesirable genetic traits worse and often results in very poor quality litters, even dead pups. Even though they are different litters, it's still the same DNA

It is recommended that you do not breed these two dogs. Experts say that the closest "relatives" that should be breed is 3 lines on their pedigree. I was concerned about the same thing because my dog had the same greatgrandfather on both sides of her pedigree. I found this information on the AKC website.

The only time it is okay to breed family is after 3 generations. Inbreeding is the number one cause of genetic illness and deficiencies. Do not breed brother and sister!

It depends on your breeding philosophy and what you are breeding for. Breeding from the same genetic lines (which is what you are proposing) will produce all the worst and best possible qualities within a bloodline very quickly. It's a very quick way to "breed out" bad traits within a short number of generations...HOWEVER, you will also breed many puppies (the majority bred) with very bad traits, genetic flaws, handicaps and other problems. For that reason, most breeders find the practice irresponsible and even immoral.
