For the OP, just a thought that it could be rounding error accounting for the difference in COI. If the sire is bred to the dam and that results in one COI, and then if the dam is bred to the sire and that results in a different COI, could be rounding in that last breeding causing the COI difference.

I see what you mean about the inbreeding on Tate. I love following pedigrees but have never seen one that inbred. To do proper breeding requires a lot of thought and effort. Thank you to the conscientious breeders who look at everything in the equation and make the best decisions, to give good dogs and to keep the lines pure. People who ask if you are going to breed just because you have a male and female really don't understand the breeding process and the consequences.

I have had more than a few "oh ****, it's 2AM I should go to bed" nights playing in pedigrees.
I created a database myself the other day just by going to the pedigree site, copying and pasting the generations into excel and then importing them into microsoft access for each line I was searching on. I spent 7 hours straight doing that!

For now you're done. But just wait... someday, somewhere, you'll have to find out about that one last generation. And then where that one originated, and then how those are related...
