if you want to get into the heavy stuff there is something call hybrid vigour – as in mules, ass’s etc. but… true hybrids are sterile so the effects are for the one generation only – because of the ability to mate within the group canines are not so the genetic crossings that produce vigour in the first generation become weak with the following generations unless constantly bred back in but the the genetic defects remain sub – active and recessive genes may actually become linked in similar genetic codes – like asthma and/or eczema in humans.
with ped breeders that follow the codes of practice – the lines and thier pros/cons are well known along with the knowledge of what their breed is prone to be carrying – if it is recessive genetically etc.
