Should you breed male father dog with female offspring?

No. This is inbreeding - something no responsible breeder would ever do. Due to the parents will be so closely related, there is an increased chance of ending up with congenital defects in the pups as a result of inbreeding. It is not a chance any responsible breeder would take, as the health of any pups would be the most important consideration. A father-daughter (or mother-son or full sibling) mating would be risky, at best. The more closely related the parents, the greater the chance of their offspring suffering from an inherited disorder. This is because when animals are related to each other they are far more likely to be carrying the same defective genes. When these defective genes pair up in the offspring, inherited diseases occur. Inherited diseases can cause significant suffering and reduce quality of life for the offspring. Other, more long-term effects of inbreeding can include a decrease in genetic variation, which in turn causes an increase in the prevalence of inherited disorders, increased mortality rate and increased infertility, for example.

Has anyone ever tried to cross breed a dog with a cat?

Some say it is possible. Science say it is impossible.But for the question of people trying, the answer would be Yes.Certain dogs try to have a go at cats, much the same as they go around humping peoples legs.Even if people tried to cross breed these two species, the result will never be a "pregnancy" because the differences in these two species are just to great.The only possibility would be in gene-research and put genes from a dog into the genes of a cat. something that can only be done in an advanced lab.Various reports are out on the web in regards to cats and dogs interbreeding.
