Here's another link into the discussion of breeding recessive genes. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...nbred-dog.html The member whose dog was deaf asked the question on one of the parti threads, in the past year, sorry, but there is no way, I'm wading through the Parti threads.  I have no vested interested in this; I'm not a breeder, just someone who's interested in the elusive truth. |
So there's a member that has a parti colored deaf Yorkie but you are not digging through all of the posts to find it?? YOU are the one making this claim...trying to prove some sort of point. To say that, "there is no way, I'm wading through the Parti threads" but to to throw out such a broad statement is not good enough...YOU made the statement, YOU should be the one to prove it! Is this member, with the deaf dog, a long-time trusted member?
And for someone that says, "I have no vested interested in this", you sure do post in any and every parti thread that you can find.
