Can cross Breeding your dog affect the future litters?
My female was accidently bred with another breed and had a litter of mixed pups. A friend of mine said that it can affect other litters as well. Is that true?

- False - this is a myth. It comes from confusion of when a female breeds with more than one male in the same heat cycle - when that happens a litter of mixed parentage can result. But once she has a litter, future heat cycles and future litters are not affected.
- No. There's not some leftover genetic material from the dad(s) that will affect future litters.
- Well yea. You 'accidentally' ( I hate that tired excuse) bred mutts. If you breed the mutts with anything, you will still have mutts. Their mutts will have mutts, their mutts will have mutts, and so on and so on. As far as your b*tch, no. Have your dog spayed if you can't keep her from 'accidents'. Added : It's not personal. I stand by my response. If you were planning on breeding her and didn't know the papers were fake- you probably shouldn't breed until you have researched breeding practices a little more thouroughly. Have a good day.
- First - your female was not "accidently bred" with another breed. If you haven't had her spayed, there is nothing accidental about her breeding, period. Secondly - the breed of the sire of one litter cannot affect any puppies she has in the future. Third - get her spayed.
- No, in no way will it affect future litters unless your girl contracted some disease from the unwanted breeding. Just like people, if you have a baby from one person, it won';t affect the next baby from another.
- what? like how...left over DNA from the previous father store in your dog? Impossible. Come on!! Who told you that. And how many litter of dogs do you plan on having?
- No, this is false. Your dog is what it is. Being bred by a dog of another breed does not change what you dog is.
- No, it's not. It wouldn't be any different than if you had 2 children with different fathers.
- First of all I don't support people breeding their dogs unless they are breeders, registered with AKC or CKC. hopefully you have thought this through. Dogs are living creatures not just a source of money. Not true at all. It's not like the genes from the previous father are going to be stuck in side of her and make future puppies mutts. It's simple genetics. If you breed her with another purebred dog they will have purebred puppies and it doesn't matter about previous litters. Be careful next time with these accidental litters. There are enough unwanted dogs in the world.
- Yes, she is ruined. Have her spayed immediately.
- Why would it? Your female can not absorb or keep the males DNA & pass it on to future pups
- If you were irresponsible enough to let her get accindentally bred- you shouldn't be breeding!!!!! No. It will affect this litter only.
- I've heard this before. It is absolutely NOT TRUE. Each litter is created by the mixing of the male's sperm and the female's eggs, creating unique individual puppies. The next litter will be a mixture of your female and whatever male you breed with her. Don't believe such garbage.
- No, it's not true. One litter has nothing to do with another. Your vet will be able to help you. Good luck.
- it would only affect that litter. like very bad example ill git alot of thumbs down, but ok white woman+mexican father= mixed kid, that mix will affect the next gen. now same white woman +french man = mixed. see my point. its the same with dogs, we all have ressive traits so if the father or mother is mixed traits you would only see in the parent of that dog might come out in the son or daughter. ok i bet u can pick out one thing on your grandparents on eather side (mom or dad) that you have or sib's have.
- The puppies from this breeding cannot be considered pure, nor can any offspring they may have. The mother, however, is still pure and her body will absorb and break down any of daddy's left over genetic material. While she may still produce pure bred pups in the future, please do your part in solving the homeless pet problem and have your dog spayed. Unless you are showing her in conformity competitions that require intact dogs (a good reason to breed if her progeny can better the breed standard) there is no reason to keep her intact.
- Well yes and no... The breeding will not have an affect on future litter quality as far as breed. However if she contracted brucellosis during your "accidental" breeding the YES.
