Breedia Dog Forum
Ha! A scientist did you say? Last I heard, you were basing your assumptions on numbers of forum posts! I think a true pedant would be tirelessly...
Brill. By this, do you mean outcossing to other breeds, or other wolfy breeds that don't go back to Call of the Wild, Majestic etc?
This does seem to be an opinion shared by a few people.. Unfortunately, as there isn't a requirement for owners to submit health data to the breed...
Gosh, I wish all wishy-washy opinions were as well backed-up, documented and accepted as those on population genetics.
OK then, if they are that unreliable, you should throw them in the bin and call your dog whatever breed you like. I've made my points about...
I really don't know about this sort of stuff I'm afraid, so sorry! What year did the problems start do you know? Because we could look at the...
Well, I'm hoping pedigrees have been altered to cover up inbreeding, not to make it look like even more has been done! So the pedigrees, whilst not...
But you're the one trying to ascertain the health of your breed aren't you? If you want learn whether the inbreeding in your breed could have...

OK.. if you like to base your opinions on numbers of posts on a forum, then that's just great.
Azz asks what we think is 'wrong' with these breeds. He asks people not to post rumours and rubbish. And actually, if 1% of affected dogs...
I really do agree with this to an extent. However, people keep saying how underwhelmed they by the numbers of diseased dogs that have been put...
Hehehe! Are you saying not one of these dogs is worryingly inbred? Are you having a laugh?! Where are your health figures while we're on the...
I thought this thread was about peoples opinions regarding what individuals think is 'wrong' with these breeds? I have no numbers or percentages...
I have no motives by the way, and just the fact that a few of these dogs have these genetic diseases is worrying enough for me. I just get...
How on earth are breeders supoosed to know which recessive alleles therir dog has? They don't so they shouldn't be doing it, simple as! What Dr....
Brother to sister matings, father to daughter matings etc. All happening a too often. The same dogs appearing tens of times on one 5 generation...
