I'm concerned about the speed in which it must be done as well. Tne fastest way to lock in a new trait is inbreeding and there is already concern that this style of breeding may be the root of some of the health problems that are so prolific today. It will take more than a year to change major physical features within a breed, it took years to develope them in the first place.
