    Yes so you could have a terrier dog that is DD for all the desired traits that are required in a working terrier. Without ever working this dog you could breed it to bitches and it would mask any faults they have for the first generation of pups and produce all workers. On the other hand you could have a dog that has proved its worth as a worker over and over but because its good points are supported by genes that are only DR dominant recessive then bred to the same bitches would produce far less workers..I know that is simplefying it but its easy to see how any mammal doesnt need to have don

    . Oh so because i dont agree with the genetical theory i just lie down lol. Evolution and instinct make terriers work not genes genes improve or defects in the make up of the body of living creatures. Simplifying such a complicated. Subject. And its importance in living creatures. Is a bit foolish to say the least. Do genetics make homing pigeons return home no instinct does but the right genes make them fly faster , The working trait and selective breeding will help in the search For the working trait the instict to hunt is evolutionary I think you will find that the Domesticated Dog has b

    Be careful not to cut blood off or the end of the tail can die and go bad.

    Thats what Ive read aswell but that was when they didnt know about the existance of genes.. And have you had one of your terriers genetically investigated. By a genetic engineer Do you even understand the expense and what goes into idenification. Of genes , when what you really mean is selective breedingStick to the banter if i were you mate.lol. Yeh. I would if i was you genetics lol get a grip tell you what post your breeding for the last 20 years Prove you have improved the working ( TRAIT.)in your terriers by your breeding programe and raised the the succes rate of your lines geneticaly DR

    That mating is bound to produce workers,but with less consistency. All you are doing with breeding in and culling is narrowing down the gene pool to the desired traits. If what you are talking about worked so well getting good terriers would be easy,but it isnt is it. So why not open your mind up a bit instead of going round in a circle. No offence intended.

    I agree with Hotmeat and you completely on the confidence thing. You are much more likely to forgive and wait for a dog to express its genes if you know whats behind it is inbred pure stuff rather than if you know there are jackers in its make up, but remember the theory isnt guess work and its in text books because cleverer people than us have proved things in a scientific way. Theory is good to know but who the hell has the time to weed out the shite from many litters to get back to what you started with.By not allowing a dog into a line with any undesirable traits you are considerably

    If offspring is showing a bad fault (cowardice) then that fault must be contained in genes from both parents,albeit recessive it must nevertheless come from both parents. To rid a strain of that fault the best thing is to cull any pup displaying it. The chances are that the good dog also contained that fault but didnt show it because it wasnt in the duplex form (2 halves). If the good bitch is not showing that fault she probably still carries it but only as impure. You could therefore still produce good workers from the union using the failed dog to the good bitch, but pups from this mating th

    You can get rid of any fault by in breeding even if both of your origional stock have the fault, but you do have to cull without question,to purefy the genes. I always try to remember that genes from both parents divide and rejoin randomly to form whole genes again in the offspring. This is simplifying it but its easier to understand. If you think of a gene as being a whole thing but made up of two parts.It can be DD double dominant, DR Dominant/recessive or RR double recessive. Thats how you can breed together two dogs that both express eg, determination but neither are pure DD for that trai

    thanks pal he is only 9 and come on here to have a read to . Think that aimed at me A lol.yes it was. glad you saw the funny side. Got the bag, saving up for the box.. Make sure. You have some thing to use it on. FirstDont like dog braggin,but I have got something pretty serious to put it on. I have got a red box.Its very good,just could be a bit smaller thats all id say. I like that it doesnt make that annoying beep noise though.. Jeems lighten up mate am sure you have its banter. Oh blinkey hell didnt realise...Give us a bit a notice next time we doin banters

    If you dont like it f**k off anything by harcombe a good read imo!well put at the end of the day there or 100s of books out there about terrier work all i asked what one was the best to get my ladYes Id already made 3 suggestions for you mate before you get your panties in a twist..Funny though how the first post you replied to was somebody taking the piss out of you!! gratitude sorry pal I hold my hands up lol :-) No worries mate..Its good for youngsters to read anyway..Keeps there interest..The only thing Ive got against the newer books is the bragging in disguise..LOOK HOW DEEP WE CA
