You need to read up on this. With dog breeding we're not building up new traits, we're actually breeding out existing variability.

Consider it concision rather than misrepresentation. It's rather a large subject, but the point remains the same; we're selecting desirable traits and retaining them, while, as you say, breeding out ones we don't want. This wouldn't be possible without evolution.
