If you are purchasing this dog just to be a pet and companion to your other one, it is fine. If you are looking to breed then you need to first do alot of research and learn about your breed. You really don't want your breeding dogs to be that close. If bred the gentic faults of the breed can usually pop up. Alot of times breeding dogs with extremly close lines can be a ticking time bomb. Esp. in a breed that is already established. Some breeder line breed from time to time. Line breeding is when the 2 dogs have a common parent 4 or more generations back. This is done alot in rare breeds. I would suggest doing alot more research before getting into breeding. It isn't always fun and games, and can cost alot of money.
