Selective breeding is where, say you want a really spotty dog, you would breed a female dog with lots of spots with a male dog with lots of spots. Their offspring would have more spots than a normal dog of that breed, then the offspring with the most spots are bred together. This carries on until you get a dog with the right amount of spots that you want.
