1. Dog breeding

   Dog breeding is the practice of mating selected dogs with the intention of maintaining or producing specific qualities and characteristics. When dogs reproduce without such human intervention, their offspring's characteristics are determined by natural selection, while "dog breeding" refers specifically to the artificial selection of dogs, in which dogs are intentionally bred by their owners. Breeding relies on the science of genetics, so the breeder with a knowledge of canine genetics, health, and the intended use for the dogs attempts to breed suitable dogs.

1. dog breeding

   Dog breeding is the intentional mating of dogs with specific traits or characteristics to maintain or produce those attributes in their offspring. This process, often carried out by professional breeders, involves matching a male dog (sire) with a female dog (dam) of the same breed to produce puppies of specific qualities and traits including behavior, physical attributes, and health conditions. Some breedings aim to enhance certain characteristics, while others aim to eliminate negative traits or health issues. The practice also helps in maintaining and enhancing various dog breeds.
