A breed is a group of domestic animals with a homogeneous appearance, behavior, and other characteristics that distinguish it from other animals of the same species. When bred together, animals of the same breed pass on these uniform traits to their offspring, and this ability—known as "breeding true"—is a definitive requirement for a breed. The offspring produced as a result of breeding animals of one breed with other animals of another breed are known as crossbreeds or mixed breeds. Plant breeds are more commonly known as varieties, or cultivars, and crosses between plant cultivars (or species) are referred to as hybrids.. Breeds are usually not classified scientifically; however, they very well so can be if necessary; furthermore, breeds are usually classified according to similar characteristics.

What dog breeds have few gentic issues and long lifespans?
Q. Preferably small breeds. I just lost my first dog to cancer, and to my dismay the issue is linked to genetics in the breed.

A. All breeds have problems including mixed breeds. Acually, mixed breeds have just as many health problems as purebred dogs. Remember, a mix can be the product of an inbreeding. And if the parents both have hip displasia or heart disease or whatever, the pups will probably have the same disease. There are some breeds to just avoid because the health issues are too bad. The King Charles is one of these because of the heart problems. You can find out the health issues on the national websites for the breeds. Then find responsible breeders who screen for all the health issues in their breed.

What dog breeds make up a miniature pincher?
Q. My mom and I were talking about our dog, which a miniature pincher, and she told me that they are made up of 5 different dog breeds. Is this true? If so, what dog breeds is it mixed with?
Asked by Abby - Mon May 19 09:05:02 2008 - - 3 Answers - 2 Comments

A. The Miniature Pinscher is a purebreed, so it is not a mix of breeds. When it was being developed in the 1800s, however, various terriers, Dachshunds, German Pinschers and various other breeds were used.

A. In the best conditions an Australorp laid 364 eggs in one year but the usual is an egg every 28 hours. with no heat or extended days with artificial light you will get 12 to 13 eggs every two weeks from spring to early fall. The best place to ask your questions is at this site.
