thanks for the assist.

my main thought was that there should be variety to the types of dogs. then I realized that they should be able to interbreed.

now I'm taking what is basically the original dog and labeling it as a mongrel, giving it a high population ratio, for every 5 mongrels there is a specialty breed.

mainly going to be working on dogs that have specific roles.

surprised that I haven't seen anyone try this before

Well, it's... not really doable in a way that makes any sense. It doesn't make much sense for two mutts to give birth to a poodle, who in turn mates with a chihuahua to give birth to a doberman.

well there is plenty that doesn't make sense in the game already, this just adds a bit of variety to the types of dogs in the game.
