Here's a link I posted earlier.
DEAF PUPPIES. It explain that one cause of deafness is linked to the piebald gene, but it's not 100 percent, and they don't understand how it's transmitted yet. Some of us think because of this, the recessive trait should not be bred. Others think because the dog is pretty, it's ok to breed for it. Then the fights start.
