Breed Context
Outlier Index (OI) 0.25 Breed avg: 0.26
Lower contributionHigher contribution

This dog carries an allele profile close to the breed average — neither notably typical nor unusual. Breed it based on health, structure, temperament, and try to find a mate with an equal or somewhat higher OI and as unrelated as possible. If you choose to breed it, pick offspring of equal quality and higher OI.

Internal Relatedness (IR) -0.11 Breed avg: 0.04
More outbredMore inbred

This dog's alleles match up less than average across its genome, meaning it inherited less of the exact same genetics from both parents than most dogs in the breed. It is less inbred than average — a favorable result. Pick a mate that is relatively unrelated and pay attention to OI. This is one less thing to worry about.

OI and IR are genetic diversity metrics intended to inform breeding decisions at the population level. They do not diagnose disease, predict individual health outcomes, or substitute for breed-required health testing or veterinary guidance. Conformation, temperament, longevity, and health history all belong in this decision.

The two moments breeders have influence on their breed's future are when choosing a mate, and choosing a keeper puppy. Both deserve full genetic information.
