Uncanny Minor Differences

At my very first dog show, my mother and I were watching the Australian Shepherds massing at ringside before their turn to trot around the ring and my mother commented,...

Posted on December 15, 2008 | 1 Comment
If you want to see what a “Pup-e-Mill” looks like, here’s a great example of one that has just been exposed in Montana. First, let’s look at the breeder’s website:...

Letters from the Front Line:
- Brackett’s Formula: Nothing Special (15)
  - Mark: Hi, I just read your article and thought I’d point out that you have the wrong interpretation of Bracket’s formula. When he starts with “let the sire’s sire…” he is referring to a new stud he...
- February Genetics Quiz (43)
  - Christopher: Ok, I think it’s time for a cease fire.
  - Jana: Oh please! Just to set the record straight – I’m on four or five Yahoo groups for collies, but I never crossposted any of the conversations from this blog onto those lists. The only Kathy postings I’ve ever seen...
  - Kathy Bittorf: I could not agree more it is much safer means than this breed clubs and AKC politics. Well at least a maltese that has served well was not hidden or put down so that now the truth can set us all free. A mutation can be...
  - Kathy Bittorf: This is the problem the AKC is not neutral. A breeder pays for the DNA testing…then you pay the registry. It is all one big ‘cash cow’. Truly you know it is no big deal to have put maltese blue merle....
- Double Merle Breeders: In Their Own Words 1 (83)
  - Kathe: Jana, can you send me a e-mail from my web site and I can get some pictures off to you? His nose is black. Kathe
  - Jana: Yes, I’d love to see! It looks like he has a black nose, too, not gray like you’d expect.
  - Kathe: Jana, Jake has the most beautiful chestnut brown eyes. I can try and get a close up picture of them if you would like this weekend. Kathe
  - Kathy Bittorf: Jana: The question of eye color would be best answered by the breeder. The expert that found “Coat Color in Dogs” series of posting states it is still guessotyping even with good photos, and even hands...
- Bunnies Can Herd, Really! (9)
  - Kathy Bittorf: Dave you are so right…big ears possibly even the pricked ones. Love this discussion. Kathy
  - Dave: Big ears are essential to herding. Everyone knows that. Link is a .RTF format.

- I WON'T RECOMMEND THIS MOVIE I THINK YOU SHOULD WATCH February 6, 2012
  Do you know those kinds of movies, movies that you enjoy but you may be hesitant to recommend that someone watch. I'm always cautious recommending movies to people, everyone has different tastes and even when I can clearly determine if a movie is "good" or "bad" (as opposed to "I liked it" or "didn't like" it […]

- Morning Work Out February 6, 2012
  There is a small track about half a km from our house, it's a great way to spend sometime in the morning with a camera. I think these guys were relatively new to the sport and very excited to be out together. This fellow was feeling left out and did a little dance and lots of snorting every time the trotting duo went by. […]

- Farrah can Flyball! February 6, 2012
  San Jo Lillith Fair, RN, learns how to flyball with the Seattle Flydogs. Farrah just graduated as a student, and is now doing solid full runs. The next month of instruction will see her learning to pass other dogs, and she will hopefully come to view this sport as more of a race, so she can also gain speed. She will make an excellent height dog. I forsee her […]

- Better then the Superbowl February 6, 2012
  I never watch the Superbowl....never watch any North American Football truthfully, but, I always enjoy the Superbowl commercials. Above is the making of the Volkswagen commercial staring Bolt the dog, below is the completed commercial. Love the fat suit. […]
