Okay, so I bought a buck and were looking into getting two doelings, I found two but now im looking at their paperwork and a familiar name pops up.
Ill try to say this without being too confusing.

so my buck’s sire’s dam has the same dam’s dam

as the other sellers doelings sire’s dam’s dam.
Is this considered inbreeding if I buy them and breed that or is the lineage far enough apart?
 
Anything under 25% inbreeding isn't going to cause issues. I'm not sure how closely related those two are, can I see their pedigree?

Personally they are too related for me, I'm not sure their percentages though. Usually If I see the name closer than 4 generations out I pass.
