Because without mutations, selective breeding would be almost impossible.
the process of selecting a few organisms with the desired traits to serve as parents of the next generation is called what?
is dog breeding an example of natural selection
Other methods of artificial breeding include in vitro fertilization, embryo transfer, and cloning. These techniques allow for the manipulation and control of reproduction outside of traditional selective breeding methods.
Using selective breeding is exactly how people produced the different dog breeds. They discovered dogs that had the characteristics or skills they wanted and bred them.

Genetic mutations
mutations are useful but not all the time itis 99 percent are bad
Mutations introduce genetic variations that can be beneficial in selective breeding by providing new traits for selection. Breeders can identify and select for these advantageous mutations, enhancing desirable characteristics such as disease resistance, yield, or specific physical traits in plants and animals. This process accelerates the development of improved varieties or breeds, leading to enhanced productivity and sustainability in agriculture and livestock management. Overall, mutations serve as a vital source of genetic diversity that breeders can harness to meet changing needs and challenges.
Selective breeding.
It can be useful for finding clever and fast dogs.
Selective breeding does not inherently increase the rate of mutation; rather, it amplifies the frequency of certain traits by choosing specific individuals to reproduce based on desired characteristics. However, it can lead to a reduced genetic diversity, which may increase the likelihood of expressing deleterious mutations or genetic disorders over time. In essence, while selective breeding influences the traits within a population, it does not directly cause more mutations to occur.
Biotechnology is involved in Selective Breeding.

No, the original coloured Budgies were green. Blue was introduced by selective breeding and mutations in the genetics. Just google image Wild Budgies.
Another name of selective breeding can also be artificial selection.
You do not allow evolution to occur, for you are evolution in selective breeding.
