I started a massive breeding project to get fun colors of non-inbred purebreds of every breed and was wondering what everyone thought. How many people would be interested in adopting Petz of that nature? I think in the future I'm going to start mixing them to get some cool (probably inbred) mixies that have more variety than mixing right out of the adoption center.
If a person's been looking for a specific color combination (especially in sheepies and other two-tone dogs, Jack Russels, German Shepherds, Scottie's toes) I can try specifically for it, since I might not hit every possible combination in such circumstances.
Eye color isn't going to be a focus until I could get all of the colors. Unless eye color is more important than body color (I'm not sure what people think, hence the polling of the masses). If people are looking for specific eye color on a specific color I could try to breed that type of line too. I think dumb luck will be mostly how I get the eye/coat combos that I want, since I haven't had luck breeding for traits that I want, especially when my dogz think they know better.
So far I have every color 5th gen. Golden Retriever (which I think is funny because they're supposed to be golden, but they're not!) and Chihuahua.
My organization of breeding has improved, so I might go back and start a second line of breeds that I've started, but have gotten stuck on because of me confusing myself (Dalis, Jack Russells, and German Shepherds and Chis...)
Is there a certain generation people prefer to adopt, or does it entirely depend on the dog?
